Want to take your edibles game to the next level? Learning how to make your own RSO-infused treats is a solid place to start. Whether you’re into brownies, gummies, or cookies, this guide will walk you through exactly how to prep, infuse, and enjoy cannabis edibles made with Rick Simpson Oil—all from the comfort of your kitchen.
Let’s break it down step by step so you can create potent (and delicious) goodies with confidence.
What is RSO and Why Use It?
RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) is a powerful, full-spectrum cannabis extract packed with cannabinoids and terpenes. It’s thick, sticky, and seriously strong. A dose the size of a grain of rice can contain around 30 mg of THC, so it’s not something to eyeball. When used properly, RSO gives you full control over edible potency—which is perfect if you’re looking to customize your experience.
What You’ll Need:
Here’s your starter kit for RSO edible making:
- Your edible mix of choice (gummies, cookies, brownies—dealer’s choice)
- 2 oz tincture/dropper bottle
- Small funnel
- Baking pan or molds (for gummies or shaped treats)
- RSO (Rick Simpson Oil)
- Carrier oil (MCT or safflower oil are great options)
- A small pot for heating and mixing
Step 1: Prep the Infused Oil
To get started, you’ll need to infuse your oil of choice with RSO. This is the base for your entire edible batch.
- Use 1 syringe of RSO (approx. 730 mg THC)
- Heat your oil on low
- Stir in the RSO until fully melted and blended
- Pour the infused oil into your dropper bottle using a funnel
- Use 2 syringes of RSO (approx. 1,460 mg THC)
- Heat and mix just like above
- Funnel it into a dropper bottle for easy measuring
Step 2: Calculate Your Dosage
Knowing how strong each serving is makes all the difference. Here’s a quick cheat sheet to help you out:
- 1 syringe across 20 servings = ~36.5 mg per serving
- 1 syringe across 30 servings = ~24 mg per serving
- 2 syringes across 20 servings = ~73 mg per serving
- 2 syringes across 30 servings = ~48.6 mg per serving
Beginner Tip: Start with 5–10 mg THC per serving and wait at least 1–2 hours before trying more.
Step 3: Make Your Edibles
Now for the fun part—baking (or mixing, or molding):
- Make your edible mix according to its instructions
- Replace the oil in the recipe with your RSO-infused oil
- Mix thoroughly to make sure the RSO is evenly distributed
- Pour into molds (for gummies), or into a baking pan if making brownies or cookies
- Bake, cool, or set according to the recipe and enjoy your homemade edibles
Important Notes:
- RSO is extremely concentrated. A little goes a long way.
- Edibles take time—don’t rush the process. Wait at least an hour or two before having more.
- Always label your edibles clearly, especially if you live with others.
- Store in a cool, dark place to keep them fresh and effective.
Final Thoughts:
Making your own RSO edibles is an awesome way to customize your cannabis experience. You get to choose the flavor, the format, and the strength—and the process is easier than you might think. With the right tools and a little patience, you’ll be crafting potent, delicious edibles like a pro in no time.
Happy experimenting—and remember: start low, go slow, and enjoy the ride.
