Anyone tried coca tea? I foudn a website with lots of coca tea products, but shipping is crazy, just wondering if its worth it. I can imagine it would be like a strong green tea but hopefully a little more zing to it. Anyone have any experience?
The Coca plant would be way stronger then green tea, but the alkaloids are only absorbed in small amounts if you eat/drink it. Its more efficient if you chew the leaves for 10-20 minutes.
Ghost of rat is right, coca is best chewed, or rather sucked next to the gum like tobacco, but you still want to get it in teabag form because customs will let it through 99% of the time. Good coca is about .5% cocaine, so 1 gram would have 5mg in it. It works best if you add a little base like baking soda or pickling lime. Baking soda is better tasting and easier on your gums. They use this stuff called lipka in S.America, which is made from ash and lye, but I'd stay away since lye is bad stuff and from what I heard it tastes shitty. I find its easy to chew left in the teabag. I just tear the top part off and add a bit of baking soda, and fold it closed. I find it way better to chew than tobacco since you don't have the annoying need to spit all the time cause coca is 100% edible.
chewing it is fine, and so is drinking the tea, but in MY opinion the most enjoyable (and unfortunately less safe than these ways) to enjoy coca tea is to macerate it overnight in vodka at the concentration of my choice, remove the bags in the morning and serve mixed with coca cola....combination caffeine and low dosage of cocaethylene...and it tastes great compared to the tea. the tea has a flavor similar to green tea but not as pleasant in my opinion. a bag of green tea (i might suggest tazo green ginger...great taste and even more medicinal qualities than with coca or green tea alone due to the ginger...the combination of these three makes an EXCELLENT rejuvenating and digestive tonic, and an excellent hangover remedy as well) and some sugar perks up the flavor nicely. chewing is nice too, as has been said. coca tea is actually quite good for you. i dont know what site you're looking at which has high shipping costs, and dont know what you think of as high shipping costs, but you might want to check out amazon, thats where i got mine. in my experience, prepared as tea, one windsor teabag is less stimulating than a normal cup of coffee but infinitely more pleasant. two teabags brings it slightly past the level of stimulation brought on by a cup of coffee. thats all subject to relative tolerance, though.
thanks for your replys guys. The site is http://www.compra-segura.com/product_info.php?cPath=26&products_id=363 That is a link to the specific product I am looking at buying. They sell lipka on the site also. Shipping is $48 US to Canada.
i really dont know...i've thought a number of times about ordering some of the more difficult to find items from compra-segura, but there are some pretty touchy things on there (prebrewed ayahuasca, coca leaves, prepared san pedro tea) and i've heard tell of people having items confiscated by customs. seriously, try amazon.....you'll be ordering from within the us
i ordered 100 bags of windsor teabags that way, and the product exceeded my hopes. i enjoy it very much. in my experience the best results come from soaking roughly 25 teabags in a fifth of decent quality, lower-cost vodka overnight (i'd suggest iceberg vodka, polar ice, tanqueray sterling, seagrams, or if you're feeling really cheap, gordons...you can use more expensive vodkas but your results wont be any better. in high priced vodkas, much of the price goes towards packaging, image, and demand rather than quality. grey goose, for example, is one of the more expensive brands out there, but you can get a bottle of equally good vodka for under 20 bucks....just get something that in your experience is smooth enough to drink straight...so no smirnoff) one or two shots is a nice dose, dont overdo it though. it tastes nasty on its own, but its good mixed with cola.
oh, and btw, i like that extract, but i'm not too keen on stimulants in general. if you are wanting to try coca because you like cocaine, you might want to use stronger doses.
^I was also wondering what a fifth was. I used to make coca tea with hot water, was quite pleasant. however, I now have to wait until I'm 18 to start that back up.
I dont like the prices on Amazon for what you get, im in Canada so I would still have to pay a bit of a premium for shipping. I am going to order off the site from peru once I save up enough pennies.
a fifth is a fifth of a gallon, or the "average" sized bottles of liquor you get at the store not exactly accurate, though, as a fifth of a gallon is 757ml whereas the bottles actually only contain 750ml but if someone talks about a "fifth" its a standard sized bottle of liquor...3/4 of a liter
I've never done cocaine. I was a little stimulated, like with caffeine or tobacco or DMAE. It was very pleasant though, kind of euphoric
i've done cocaine a few times, but only the first time was particularly pleasant, and i've not had much desire to do it much since, so my comparison wouldnt be very good. that said i'll try to make one anyway.... it was stimulating in a similar way to cocaine, obviously very, very subdued, though. a single teabag's worth of coca tea or coca extract is LESS stimulating than a cup of coffee....but the stronger the preparation, the stronger the effect. it will also be different due to the method of ingestion. the effects of orally consumed cocaine are not quite the same as those of insufflated cocaine. i'd say the stimulation it produces is more along the lines of that produced by caffeine or add medications, however not all jittery and sweaty. instead its calm, relaxed, talkative stimulation. not an explosion of energy you cannot contain. its lifting, gentle, and pleasurable, and does not exhibit any unwanted side effects or addictive potential when used in reasonable dosages (i think the biggest dose i took was an equivalent of about 4-6 bags extracted into vodka) really a whole different ballpark than isolated cocaine, more comparable to more familiar and available stimulants
