Sunrise Minturn is now offering a coconut latter that includes CBD, a healing compound coming from the marijuana plant.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With all of the hype surrounding THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the benefits of consuming CBD (cannabidiol) can occasionally get lost in the mix \u2014 especially when that mix is coffee and other food and drink products.<\/p>\n

Sunrise Minturn<\/a>, however, has not lost sight of the product. In fact, the cafe in Minturn is bringing it to the forefront in its new CBD lattes.<\/p>\n

According to studies, CBD is known for having several health benefits including pain and inflammation, and anxiety management, according to healthline.com<\/a>. While it also comes from the marijuana plant, CBD doesn\u2019t contain THC, the material that gives users a \u201chigh.\u201d Douglas McAvity, owner and operator of Sunrise Minturn, noted that he hasn\u2019t taken painkillers since he began consuming CBD.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s some confusion around it,\u201d McAvity said. \u201cPeople ask \u2018what is it going to do to me?\u2019 and \u2018will it make me feel weird?\u2019 But it doesn\u2019t make you feel anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

It won\u2019t make you taste anything either \u2014 the concoction that McAvity and his team put into the lattes is completely flavorless.<\/p>\n

The concoction is made of two simple ingredients. The first is CBD isolate, a concentrated powder. The second ingredient is MCT oil, an energy booster that can be purchased at a grocery store.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had to do a bit of research,\u201d McAvity said. \u201cI had to look into the ratio \u2026 it\u2019s all on YouTube.\u201d<\/p>\n

Included in the latte is also coconut flavoring.<\/p>\n

Only a few drops of CBD oil make it into the latte, but even a small amount has several health benefits.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just what I came up with,\u201d joked McAvity about adding coconut.<\/p>\n

The idea came about after McAvity and his wife noticed other coffee shops and restaurants around the country cashing in on the trend. They chatted with a friend that makes CBD balm, and soon after CBD lattes were on their menu beginning in late December of 2018.<\/p>\n

Although the coconut latte is the official product, a $2 upcharge will allow customers to add CBD to other products as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll add it to a Sunrise smoothie,\u201d McAvity said. \u201cSometimes people come in and say \u2018can I get that CBD thing?’\u201d<\/p>\n

Although the latte is a new and popular menu item, fear not \u2014 everything that Sunrise Minturn is doing is completely legal, and they\u2019re still serving classics like their sticky buns and breakfast burritos.<\/p>\n

A CBD coconut latte can be picked up at Sunrise Minturn for $6.<\/p>\n
