Once a fad substance sold in head shops and gas stations, cannabidiol (CBD) has taken the nation by storm as a health supplement that can potentially alleviate pain, relieve stress, and promote feelings of calmness and happiness.

There are no proven scientific claims of CBD's benefits, but that hasn't stopped about 7 percent of the U.S. population from seeking it out. Many Miamians have embraced CBD, and users rave about its therapeutic benefits, including soothing effects and anti-inflammatory properties.

And though the most popular way to use CBD is by dropping a bit of tincture under your tongue, there are many more delicious ways to experience it. From coffee and cocktails to cookies and ice cream, here are some of the best CBD-infused food and drinks.

Brewing Life Kombucha

Various farmers markets

Chef Daniel Seaburg and holistic therapist and yoga teacher Erika Acosta have joined forces to handcraft flavorful CBD-infused elixirs available online and at various farmers' markets in Broward and Miami-Dade. Their "booch brews" are made with probiotics, vitamins, enzymes, and organically grown ingredients that act as anti-inflammatory and anti-aging antioxidants. They're then boosted with 20 milligrams of CBD hemp oil to work as a natural muscle relaxant. The CBD-infused Brewing Life kombucha is sold in flavors such as goji 'n' berries, ginger lemon turmeric, and seasonal options like dragon fruit rosebud and jasmine passionfruit priced at $10 online or $7 at the farmers' markets. The kombucha is available at the Coconut Grove Organic Market (10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays), Key Biscayne Community Church Farmer's Market (9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays), Palmetto Bay Farmer's Market (9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sundays), and Miami Shores Farmers Market (11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sundays).
