You may not have even thought about trying tinctures yourself, but these products are worth a try. But here at Queen City, we carry the full line of Avexia tinctures, ready to go right off the shelf.

How to make tinctures a part of your routine
Incorporating tinctures into your cannabis routine offers a versatile and effective way to experience the benefits of cannabinoids. Here are some suggestions for making tinctures part of your cannabis routine:
- Start low, go slow: When it comes to any new cannabis products, always begin with a low dosage and gradually increase over time. This will help you determine your tolerance and find your optimal amount.
- Sublingual administration: For the fastest absorption, place the tincture under your tongue and hold it for 30 to 60 seconds before swallowing.
- Blend with beverages or food: You can also add the tincture to your favorite drink or meal for a more discreet, flavorful experience.
- Consult a professional: If you’re unsure about tinctures, you can always seek advice from a trustworthy budtender or healthcare professional. They can provide you with guidance or dosing, usage, and product recommendations.
- Keep a journal: Tracking your experiences with any new product is a great way to gauge your personal preferences. This can help you refine your routine over time.
- Establish a regular schedule: Consistency is key. Set a regular time or routine for taking your tincture to help maintain a steady level of cannabinoids in your system.
- Store properly: Keep your tinctures in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to help maintain their potency and effectiveness over time.
- Adjust as needed: As your tolerance or needs change, be open to adjusting your dosage or frequency of tincture consumption. This will ensure you continue to achieve your desired effects.
It’s important to stay consistent and monitor the effects of tinctures as you make them a part of your routine. Doing so will help you make the right adjustments so you can employ tinctures in the best possible way for your needs and your routine.
How to take a tincture
Consuming a tincture is simple! Just follow these three easy steps:
- Use the dropper provided to measure out your desired dosage of THC.
- Drop the tincture under your tongue.
- Hold the tincture under your tongue for 30 to 60 seconds before swallowing.
Holding the liquid under your tongue allows for faster absorption through the mucous membranes in your mouth, providing you with a relatively quicker onset of effects. The part you swallow makes its way through your digestive system like any other edible. Once finished, simply replace the dropper cap and store your tincture for later use.
Using tinctures for infused edibles and beverages
Because tinctures are an activated cannabis product ready for oral ingestion, you can add them directly to your favorite foods and beverages to create infused edible products. Keep in mind that it may take longer to take effect this way, as the tincture needs to pass through your digestive system.
How long do tinctures last?
In terms of effects, expect tinctures to last anywhere from one to six hours, depending on factors like dosage, your stomach contents, and your tolerance to THC. Always plan ahead when consuming a tincture and avoid operating heavy machinery or vehicles while you’re feeling its effects. Tinctures can be potent, but by starting with a small amount and gradually increasing as needed, you can ensure a controlled experience.
How long are tinctures good for?
In terms of shelf life, the longevity of your tincture hinges on several factors, including its composition, the carrier oil utilized, and the storage methods you use to keep your cannabis products fresh at home. Tinctures will become less potent over time. Typically, tinctures can maintain their quality anywhere from six months to three years. MCT oils, like those used in Avexia tinctures, can boast a shelf life of up to two years due to their lower susceptibility to oxidation.
