Grind up the leaves and use in a pipe or bong. Take 5 hits and chill.

Blue Lotus Effects:

The effects of Blue Lotus are typically mild which is why it is so popular amongst experimenters. You can experience a mild version of many (much more potent) substances like MDMA, Marijuana and even Opium. Blue Lotus is in no way addictive and is a nice inexpensive way to augment your mood for a nice relaxing weekend.

Check out what some people had to say about their experiences with Blue Lotus (Excerpts from Erowid)

…I was reminded vaguely of both marijuana and opium by the feeling that slowly crept over me, except much less overwhelming. I certainly didn't want to move, but some things seemed a little different to me. Specifically the little figure on the hardware store bag in my room seemed like he was vitally important somehow, or like he was trying to tell me something.

I realized that I could not be angry or sad, or happy. My emotions, no matter what I pondered, were shut down. Sedated-- like I get with Opium.

I also noticed that in this state, I was able to answer myself honestly about some deeply personal questions that had been plaguing me. It was a very liberating experience which took me to a whole new psychological plane.

With marijuana, there is often much mental stuff that can go on, but the sensory experience overwhelms me so much that I can't think. Lotus was like all the mental traits of marijuana with none of the sensory overload (except some visual distortion). …

… I tried smoking it. I took 2 small bowls through a water pipe concocted out of a mountain dew bottle and within a few seconds after inhaling I felt a tingling sensation on the crown of my head. I then began to notice a light, marijuana-like high. It wasn't as stoney as marijuana, but a had a defininate buzz-on! I am going to purchase some more and use it to strech my ganja out. …

… After 30 min I felt that something was defiantly happening. A bit like MDMA, but different. Relaxing, I just wanted to share my space with my wife…

…After 40 min, we couldn’t believe how much time had passed. This must be the peak I just want to stroke & touch her & talk & hear what she has to say. She feels much more sexual now unusually ahead of me. She talks about the way it makes her clitoris feel unsually stimulated it is very very swollen to the touch. It takes me aback; 'This is great for women' she says.....no wonder cleopatra looked happy! This bad joke is really funny to us. …
