Tincture

A tincture is any medicine made by dissolving a drug in alcohol. In the case of cannabis, a tincture typically uses glycerin or alcohol to extract and infuse cannabis terpenes and effects. Tinctures are usually flavoured and can be dosed with the use of an eyedropper. These versatile liquids can be added to food, or simply dropped under the tongue for the quickest reaction.
