THC-Infused Olive Oil:

- Pour in lime juice and THC-infused olive oil, and gently toss to mix.
- Blend the Soup:
- In batches, transfer the mixture to a blender. Add vegetable broth and blend until smooth. You can adjust the consistency by adding more broth if needed.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Chill:
- Transfer the gazpacho to a large container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Serve:
- Pour the chilled gazpacho into bowls or cups.
- Garnish with diced avocado, cucumber, or a sprinkle of cilantro, if desired.
Dosage Note:
- As with any THC-infused recipe, it’s important to start with a small dose, especially if you are new to cannabis edibles. Wait to understand the effects before consuming more.
