That thought had occurred to me as well. Messing with an extablished recipe could be a problem and wasting buds is always a bummer. I was thinking though that since the sugar mixture has to be heated to 275 - 300 degrees to make the candy the alchohol would evaporate off and leave just the THC carrying part of the tincture.

Hopefully someone who has been successful will chime in. In the mean time the non clear candies I have are totally delicious and effective.
