Fairbanks reveals the party&#8217;s details.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In general, the group was white and middle-aged, an equal mix of professional women and affluent homemakers,&#8221; she writes. While many party-goers didn&#8217;t feel comfortable disclosing their full names (out of fear of being criticized or their children being denied playdates) they didn&#8217;t shy away from praising the benefits of cannabis-infused tea.<\/p>\n<p>Katie, a mother of two, said Kikoko&#8217;s Sensuali-Tea, intended to aid loss of libido, gave her a boost in the bedroom. After trying out the tea, she and her partner experienced &#8220;super-amplified orgasms.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kikoko offers four varieties of tea &#8212; Sympa-Tee, Sensuali-Tea, Positivi-Tea, and Tranquili-Tea &#8212; each containing between three and 10 mg of THC, psychoactive component in cannabis. The teas, sold in a can of ten sachets each, go for between $40 and $56.<\/p>\n<p>Another party-goer, Catherine, 48, started using edibles to treat her insomnia, hoping to avoid pharmaceuticals. But edibles left a odor on her breath that her children noticed. Cannabis-infused tea, however, didn&#8217;t leave a trace. &#8220;My children don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;m doing. I&#8217;m just having a tea,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It&#8217;s something you can definitely do every night.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/ca-bay-area-women-get-high-on-cannabis-infused-tea.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>News Moderator: Ron Strider <a href=\"http:\/\/www.420magazine.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">420 MAGAZINE \u00ae<\/a><br \/>\nFull Article: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/bayarea\/article\/#item-39786\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Channel &#8211; SFGate<\/a><br \/>\nAuthor: Jackie Flynn<br \/>\nContact: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/feedback\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Feedback technical support customer service subscriber subscription help contact us written content &#8211; SFGate<\/a><br \/>\nPhoto Credit: John Storey<br \/>\nWebsite: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SFGATE: San Francisco Bay Area &#8211; News, Bay Area news, Sports, Business, Entertainment, Classifieds &#8211; SFGate<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three dozen women, most wearing cocktail dresses and vintage hats, gathered in the backyard of a private Mill Valley, Calif.&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.420magazine.com\/2017\/07\/ca-bay-area-women-get-high-cannabis-infused-tea\/\" class=\"read-more\">[Read More]<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1597,9,1,3],"tags":[4165],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7606"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7606"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7606\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7606"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7606"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cannitrol.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7606"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
