Mocktail Recipe: Orange Cardamom Bhang

admin

A Reimagined Sip of Tradition

For centuries, Bhang has been more than a beverage — it’s been a bridge between the physical and the divine. This traditional Indian elixir, once served during festivals and rituals to honor Lord Shiva, was crafted to balance body and spirit through plants, spices, and intention.

Herbal Affinity’s modern recipe keeps the same heart — warm spices, soothing milk, and mindful preparation — while weaving in a new cannabis-infused twist featuring Pamos Signature Spirit.

With its bright citrus notes and smooth botanical depth, Pamos pairs beautifully with the creamy, spiced character of classic Bhang, creating a refreshing and balanced drink perfect for mindful celebration.

Recipe: Orange Cardamom Bhang

Glass: Tall glass
Total Volume: 8 oz
Infusion: 1.5 fl oz Pamos Signature Spirit (≈5mg THC | 2mg CBD)

  1. Create the Elixir Base:
    Blend together coconut milk, honey (or agave), freshly ground cardamom, nutmeg, black pepper, and a hint of cinnamon. Add a few drops of orange bitters or a splash of fresh orange juice for brightness. Mix thoroughly until smooth, then pour into a shaker with ice for a chill mixture.
  2. Pour & Infuse:
    In a tall glass filled with ice, pour 1.5 oz of Pamos Signature Spirit and top with your chilled spiced coconut mixture. Stir gently to combine.
  3. Garnish with Intention:
    Float a dehydrated orange wheel on top for added flavor and beauty.

The drink opens with soft citrus and spice, echoing Pamos’ signature blend of orange peel, bitters, and aromatic botanicals. Coconut milk rounds the edges with creaminess, while cardamom and nutmeg bring warmth and earth to each sip. The flavor profile of this elixir unfolds slowly: sweet, spiced, and warming.

Within ten minutes, the gentle lift of 5mg hemp-derived THC and 2mg CBD begins to bloom, guiding you into an easy, balanced state of being.
