Crunchy, buttery, and ridiculously snackable, weed popcorn is one of the easiest cannabis treats to make at home. It’s quick, discreet, and perfect for movie nights, laid-back evenings, or sharing with friends who prefer lighter edibles. With just a few ingredients, you can turn plain popcorn into a delicious infused snack that feels familiar, but with a lifted twist.


Because popcorn is light and easy to portion, it’s also great for more controlled dosing. This recipe works with either THC or CBD, depending on the vibe you’re after. THC popcorn is best if you want a clearly noticeable edible high, while CBD popcorn is ideal for relaxing without intense psychoactive effects. Either way, the method is the same—just use the infused fat that matches your goal.

How to make weed popcorn

Step-by-step recipe

  1. Pop the popcorn: Pop your popcorn using a saucepan, popcorn maker, or air popper. If you’re using a saucepan, heat a small amount of oil, add the kernels, cover with a lid, and shake gently until the popping slows down. Transfer the popcorn to a large bowl.

  2. Melt the infused butter: In a small saucepan, melt your cannabis infused butter or cannabis infused coconut oil over very low heat. Keep the temperature gentle. Don’t let it boil. If you’re making CBD popcorn with CBD oil, melt regular butter first, then stir in the CBD oil at the very end after you remove it from the heat. This helps preserve flavor and potency.

  3. Pour and toss: Drizzle the melted infused butter evenly over the popcorn. Toss gently but thoroughly so every kernel gets coated. For more even dosing, pour slowly while mixing continuously.

  4. Season to taste: Add salt and any optional seasonings. For sweet popcorn, go with a cinnamon-and-sugar combo. For savory popcorn, try paprika or nutritional yeast. Toss again until everything is evenly coated.

  5. Serve and enjoy responsibly: Serve right away while it’s warm and fresh. If you’re using THC popcorn, start with a small bowl and wait at least 45 to 90 minutes before having more. If you’re using CBD, the effects may feel milder and more relaxing.
