Marijuana Infused Ice Cream
Pot in ice cream? One CA store is selling it
(NBC) - A new medical marijuana dispensary in Soquel, California is offering its
customers a tasty alternative to smoking: enjoying a bowl of pot-infused ice cream.
The half pints of ice cream have titles that may have Ben and Jerry taking notes.
The current flavors owner Jonathan Kolodinski offers at Creme De Canna, which
opened last week, are Banannabis Foster, Straw-Mari Cheesecake and TRIPLE
Chocolate Brownie.
More flavors are in the works.
Kolodinksi said he is offering the ice cream as a healthy alternative to pa-
tients who do not want to smoke medical marijuana, and so far, business is
off to a smoking start.
"Everybody who's tried it has said they absolutely love it. A lot of people
come back for seconds, thirds and fourths," Kolodinksi said.
At $15 a piece, the half-pints of ice cream are potent.
Klodinski said there are about two to four doses of cannabis for each half-
pint, which means finishing one would be similar to smoking an eighth of high-
grade marijuana, the equivalent of eight joints.
Klodinski said that critics of his pot-laced ice cream shouldn't worry if the
concoction is grabbing the wrong sort of attention, because in the end, his
goal is to help his patients.
"We very explicitly label all our products with a marijuana leaf that says 'Keep
out of reach of children'. We have been very mindful," Klodinski said. "I've
got a daughter. I come from a very conservative family."
Also, the card-carrying marijuana patients cannot eat the ice cream at the
collective.
