As CBD cafés start to flourish in cities across the UK, the allure of CBD-infused coffee is captivating the CBD community. Beyond adding a fresh twist to the café culture, the merging of CBD and coffee brings potential benefits that intrigue enthusiasts.
Among these emerging CBD cafés, Bristol’s Mary Jane’s Café stands as a hidden gem, concocting a CBD coffee blend in collaboration with skilled roasters. Their innovative approach creates a unique CBD-infused coffee experience.
However, taste isn’t the sole driving factor for CBD coffee’s popularity. Beyond the delightful flavor fusion, CBD-infused coffee has been embraced as a way to counteract some of caffeine’s potential negative effects.
Before dedicated CBD cafés sprouted, some CBD enthusiasts were already adding CBD to their morning coffee routines, aiming to offset the jitters induced by caffeine. Others discovered a symbiotic relationship between CBD and coffee, leveraging the alertness provided by coffee to counteract any mild drowsiness caused by CBD.
Journalist Melissa Malamut conducted an intriguing experiment, incorporating CBD coffee into her routine to address anxiety. Despite initial skepticism due to coffee’s reputation for exacerbating anxiety, she found CBD remarkably beneficial. By the third day, she wrote: ‘I’m alert with no headache. Caffeine can sometimes give me heart palpitations and shaky hands, but today I feel calm.’
Dan Guy, owner of Espresso Bay and a chronic pain warrior due to autoimmune disease, introduced CBD-infused coffee to his café. Sharing his experience, Dan emphasizes the equilibrium achieved by combining CBD’s potential to induce drowsiness with the stimulating effects of coffee. He believes it’s a harmonious match.
But how does CBD manage to harmonize with coffee’s effects and vice versa? Caffeine, a central nervous system stimulant, exhilarates by stimulating neurons, enhancing alertness. However, this stimulation can at times overwhelm both the nervous system and the neurons, leading to heightened stress and anxiety.
CBD enters the scene by modulating how neurons respond to stimulation through the endocannabinoid system, a crucial component of the central nervous system. This intricate network, adorned with endocannabinoid receptors, plays a pivotal role in regulating various physiological functions.
While the CBD-coffee union might alleviate coffee jitters for occasional caffeine consumers, individuals struggling with anxiety disorders should exercise caution. It’s important to acknowledge one’s unique sensitivities before diving into the CBD coffee trend.
Crafting your own CBD-infused latte is simpler than you might think. You’ll need a high-quality CBD oil tincture and your preferred espresso brewing method.
Begin by adding a few drops of CBD oil to half a cup of warm milk, ensuring it doesn’t reach boiling point. Gently blend the mixture using a milk frother. Once combined, pour the CBD-infused milk over your freshly brewed espresso, creating a harmonious fusion of flavors and benefits.
