Porch Recipes, No Infusions
Good company needs good snacks. These are simple, infusion-free lifestyle recipes: hemp seed bites, herbal teas and fancy mocktails. Nothing here involves cooking with cannabis, just easy, tasty goodness for the hangout.
Hemp seed snacks 🌿
Hulled hemp seeds are a nutty, soft little crunch you can find in many grocery stores. Sprinkle them on yogurt, toss them in a salad, or stir them into oatmeal. They're a food seed, not a smokable.
For a quick porch snack, mix hemp seeds with oats, a spoon of nut butter and a drizzle of honey. Roll into small balls and chill them. Simple, sweet and sturdy enough for a creek-side hike.
- Hemp seed trail mix: seeds, dried fruit, roasted nuts.
- Hemp yogurt bowl: seeds, berries, a little honey.
- Hemp-sprinkle toast: avocado, lemon, pinch of salt.
- Oat bites: oats, nut butter, seeds, honey.
Teas and hydration
A warm herbal tea slows the whole evening down in the best way. Try mint, chamomile or lemon balm, steeped a few minutes with a slice of ginger. Add honey if you like it sweet. On warm days, fill a big jug with water, cucumber, lemon and a handful of mint. Sip all afternoon. Staying hydrated makes any hangout feel better.
Mocktails and munchies
Want a fancy glass with zero alcohol? Muddle some mint and lime, add sparkling water and a splash of juice, and you've got a front-porch fizz. Swap berries or ginger for a new flavor each round. When the munchies call, keep it easy: popcorn with seasoning, fruit and cheese, veggie sticks with hummus. Always label foods clearly and keep anything adult-only out of reach of kids.
