AuthorInfusedEatsDragon's Blood Marijuana Tincture uses ABV (Already Been Vaped) cannabis flowers combined with grain alcohol and Red Hots cinnamon candies for a simple cordial with a sweet and tasty kick.
Place the Red Hots in a metal pan, cover the pan with a couple of layers of plastic wrap. Using another small pan, smash the Red Hots into smaller pieces. No need to grind them too much, just crack them so they will grind in the processor.
Pour the cracked candies into a food processor and grind them into a powder. there will be larger pieces but grind the best you can using your device.
Now combine the ground ABV marijuana, 1 Cup of the grain alcohol and all of the red hots into a mason jar, or another heat safe container that can be boiled in water. Cover and shake vigorously to combine the ingredients.
In a pan of water on very low heat, put the mason jar uncovered, or covered very loosely into the water bath.
For 6 hours occasionally stir and mix the ingredients of the mason jar. You can remove it from the water and shake it to make sure you have nothing sticking to the bottom.
Keep the heat very low, below boiling and just to the point that the alcohol in the water bath will emit tiny bubbles slightly from the bottom and edges of the jar.
After about 6 hours, remove the jar from the water bath. Using a mesh strainer, drain the alcohol into a clean container and set aside.
Return the ABV and crushed candy mixture into the mason jar. Add the remaining pint of grain alcohol and more if need to cover the mixture in the jar. Again shake vigorously. Now let the mixture sit for 15 Minutes then shake again.
Now strain the new rinse of alcohol into the previous alcohol infusion. Pour the combined alcohol through a funnel fitted with a coffee filter into you preferred storage or serving containers.
For better results grind the candy as finely as possible.
You can easily substitute Decarboxylated un-vaporized marijuana in place of the ABV by lowering the quantity of marijuana to 6 - 10 grams.

This is a kick butt recipe I double the recipe and used two bags of red hot candys and 28 grams of bud trim so good just 1/2 a shoot and I was good for 5 hours just don’t plan on doing anything lol
Haven’t tried this one yet but I will this week and let you guys know how it turns out!
I love green dragon and I would love to make this recipe. However I’m not a big fan of cinnamon candy. Any other substitutes I can use?
I made it with candy canes called it silent night lol came out really good
One thing to think about, that most probably do not know, I know I didn’t. Grain alcohol is GMO based! Everclear is what I had chosen to use, might have to move to Rum instead.
most weed is goo
GMO damm autocorrect
I don’t doubt it as much breeding that has been done to make it high THC
GMOs are fine.
The companies that produce them, however, are usually straight-up evil.
Haven’t tried this yet but I’m looking fwd to it, always wanted something that was a little less harsh than the straight tincture
can you tell me exactly how much l need to purchase of the candy as I need to import this to the uk and it is expensive. please let me know how many grams box please compared to grams of weed
you need 113.4 grams of red hots to 1.5 liters of alcohol
1.5 liters of alcohol = 6 cups– that is too much alcohol for 113 grams or 1/2 cup of red hots.
The accurate amount is:
1 pint = 16 ounces = 2 cups; .25 pint = 4 ounces = 1/2 cup
You need 20 ounces of alcohol and 4 ounces or 113 grams of red hots
Has anyone tried this with increasing the time instead of heating?
So, I do my tincture by decarbing my w**d and then pouring the alcohol on it and letting it sit for like 10 days. Its amazingly effective. Can I do this same thing and just leave the Red Hots in the jar for 10 days or no??
Thanks.
I am making the red dragon this week it sounds so good
