Sun Syrup infused Salad Dressing
Introducing Budtender Andi’s Sun Syrup Salad dressing, a culinary celebration of the transition from summer to fall. Crafted with the essence of late summer sunshine, this dressing blends the vibrant flavors of fall with the citrus zest to evoke memories of warm summer days.
DRESSING
- 1 teaspoon of Sun Syrup by Luminous Botanicals (we used the Honey Lemon flavor)
- ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
- ⅓ cup chopped parsley
- 2Tbsp stone ground mustard
- Squeeze of Lemon Juice (save the rest for the salad)
- 1 garlic clove (minced)
- Cracked Salt & Pepper to taste
SALAD
- 1 cup uncooked Quinoa
- 6 cups chopped Kale
- Juice of 1 Lemon
- 1 TBS Olive Oil
- 4oz crumbled Goat Cheese (we used a red wine cask variety)
- 1 cup Dried Cherries
- Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
- 2 sliced Honeycrisp Apples
- 1 Sweet Potato
- Optional: Cashews or Pecans
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
Large Pot (with lid)
Baking Sheet
Measuring Cup/Spoons
Cutting Board & Knife
HOW TO
Begin by preheating the oven to 425. Dice Sweet Potatoes, toss in olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place on baking sheet in oven for about 20 minutes. Flip them about halfway through.
While the sweet potatoes roast, prepare your quinoa according to the directions on your package. Set both aside while you make the dressing and salad.
MEANWHILE
While your potatoes and quinoa are cooking, combine the dressing ingredients and whisk thoroughly to ensure even dosing. Set aside until you are ready to serve.
THE SALAD
Chop your Kale and place in a large bowl. Squeeze the rest of the lemons juice over the kale and massage until the color turns to a bright green. *Don’t skip the Kale Massage*.
Add the rest of your ingredients to the massaged Kale.
ENJOY!
Wait to add the dressing to the salad until you are ready to serve. Shake well once more before serving to ensure it is properly combined. The Dressing itself can store for up to a week in your fridge.
Dosing Guide
Each teaspoon of Luminous Botanicals Sun Syrup equates to approximately 45mg.
This Salad makes 4 servings.
Meaning each serving would be approximately 11mg.
Because Luminous Botanicals is a full-spectrum extract, exact MG can vary from bottle to bottle. Always consult your bottles testing label for the most accurate serving size information.
Always consult your guests about their dosage requirements and inform them as to how many mg they are consuming. If your guest is more sensitive you can choose to add a smaller amount of Sun Syrup or double the other ingredients to make a larger and less potent batch.
Per OLCC research: The average psycho-active threshold is 5mg, some people need less, some people need more.
Always start low and add slowly, remembering to wait at least 1.5 hours after eating an edible before consuming more as it takes time for your body to digest the cannabis and feel the effects.

- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2Tbsp yellow mustard
- 1Tbsp paprika (to taste)
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 4 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1/2 cup water
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
Large Pot (with lid)
Spatula
Mason Jar
HOW TO
Mix all ingredients together in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes or until thickened.
TASTE TEST.
Add more seasonings or sugar as desired and combine well. TURN OFF THE HEAT and allow to begin cooling.
INFUSING THE SAUCE
Once the heat is off, mix your extracts or concentrate into the sauce and stir, stir, stir. 3-5 minutes. This part is important to ensure consistency of medicine throughout the sauce.
If you add it while you are still boiling the sauce you will cook off the THC, and if you add it when its cool it will not blend consistently.
COOL
Cover and Refrigerate your sauce until cool to allow vinegar and spice to blend and meld.
Once cooled, put into a mason jar and Store in your fridge for up to two weeks!
Dosing Guide
Find the testing label showing MG of THC and CBD in the Extract.
If the testing label is in percentages, move the decimal one point to the right
(65% = 650mg)
This recipe makes 2.25 cups of BBQ sauce. That means there are 36 Tbsp in the finished jar. If your dab contains 650mg of THC then that means there will be 18mg of THC per Tbsp. To make each Tbsp a smaller serving consider using only half of your extract, or diluting the finished product with unmedicated bbq sauce.
Using a half of a dab at 65%- that would be 325 mg, meaning it would be 9mg per Tbsp. We know, that looks like math, but we swear it’s easy!
How many MG you put into your blondies ÷ 36 = mg per Tablespoon.
Per OLCC research: The average psycho-active threshold is 5mg, some people need less, some people need more.
Always start low and add slowly, remembering to wait at least 1.5 hours after eating an edible before consuming more as it takes time for your body to digest the cannabis and feel the effects.
