Wow, sounds amazing. I'd bet that didn't take long to take effect. Much like coffee that only takes seconds to feel a buzz. Did you strain and re-dry the herb from the tea or just drink it down? It seems after steeping the herb would still contain a small amount of goodies that would come in handy in a pinch. Like for vaping or edibles? I'd try to re-steep it longer for another batch of tea LOL.
Sorry, hadn't seen your reply.
Actually, since i mix my ground bud in with tea leaves and put it in a strainer, I don't bother saving it. I'm only using about .1g anyways.
So what I do when I make tea is grind as fine as I can then I mix in tea leaves (you can dump the tea out of a bag or use actual loose tea). I put it into a tea diffuser that I can throw into a pot of boiling water. I use maybe 1/4 cup more than my tea cup holds for evaporation and get it up to a rolling boil and keep it there for about 30 min. Then I turn it down to a simmer, add my fat (usually use whole fat milk and some coconut oil for good measure) and simmer for about 10 min. Then its time to drink up. It starts taking effect in under an hour.
I should mention I don't decarb in order to keep the high in check. I've read if you decarb ahead of time, it packs one hell of a punch.
