If you live in a major city, have a challenging job or career or are dealing with the waiting game until life gets sweeter & easier then chances are you probably constantly seek out ways to relax. A vacation may not always be doable and sometimes even a staycation at home can even be a bundle of nerves especially if you're headaches rear their ugly heads at home too. So what's a worn-out guy to do?
Ponder the answer to that question today as conveniently, it's Nation Martini Day. Now we all have some form of wise adage about how a stiff drink can calm the savage beasts of stress and annoyance. It's the elements that collaborate to sooth and make one a little less tense. This is precisely why I was intrigued to shed some focus on literally every element of my martini this June 19. The lively gin, the fragrant vermouth and my briny kalamatas do a lovely dance together at the party but an interesting little skewer I discovered drives the dancing home. In my efforts to relax, I decided to jazz up my martini with Ignite CBD Infused Toothpicks.
Each toothpick delivers a soothing dose of CBD isolate extracted from the flowers and leaves of the hemp plant. This is whole plant hemp oil and each pick contains 25mg of CBD. That nice microdose is enough to have a mild total-body calming effect, flavorful enough to deliver a satisfyingly sweet bite and discreet enough to skewer your olives, none the wiser. The way you enjoy the infused-chew is similar to a chew-stick or teeth cleaning twig. Most commonly used in the West Indies and continental Africa, the chew stick is a naturally herbal stick, that when chewed, the friction and inner-herbal juices of the stick are used to clean the teeth and freshen the breath. The CBD Infused Toothpicks from Ignite perform a similar function in that you tenderly chew on one end of the toothpick to release half the dosage of CBD and then flip it to the other end of the pick and chew for a full dose when the flavor runs dry. A great thing is that they come flavored so that a sweet taste will cajole you to chew to your heart and mind's content. Find Ignite CBD Infused Toothpicks and other great products available now through their website here, enjoy the martini recipe below and the new fact that the full cocktail experience doesn't necessarily have to end when all the liquor is gone.
