Barcelona Street Food: 8 Spanish-Mediterranean Cannabis Recipes
By Lisa · June 2026
Barcelona eats on its own schedule, and the city's food scene is inseparable from its way of life. La Boqueria market draws crowds at dawn, tapas bars fill up at midnight, and the best paella is eaten at lunch on a Sunday. Catalan cuisine is one of Spain's most sophisticated — technically precise, ingredient-driven, with a deep Mediterranean identity. These eight cannabis recipes capture Barcelona's food spirit, from the cold perfection of gazpacho to the golden crunch of croquetas. ZenOil's Mediterranean olive-adjacent notes blend naturally into Spanish cooking, enhancing the olive oil base that underlies almost every great Catalan dish.
Best Recipes from Barcelona
Cannabis Gazpacho
Barcelona's summer essential — ice-cold blended tomatoes, pepper, cucumber, garlic, and olive oil served in a chilled glass. ZenOil replaces a portion of the olive oil, emulsifying into the smooth base for a refreshing, infused Andalusian classic.
- Ice-cold blended tomato base
- ZenOil replaces part of the olive oil
- Serve garnished with diced vegetables
Cannabis Jamon Croquetas
The queen of Spanish tapas — a creamy bechamel and jamon serrano filling encased in fine breadcrumbs and deep-fried to a shattering crisp. ZenOil is worked into the bechamel for a seamless infusion distributed through every croqueta.
- Creamy bechamel & jamon filling
- Fine breadcrumb coating
- ZenOil in the bechamel
Cannabis Churros
Barcelona's most beloved street snack — long, ridged dough fingers fried golden and dusted with cinnamon sugar, served with thick drinking chocolate. ZenOil is whisked into the chocolate dipping sauce for a warm, indulgent experience after a night on Las Ramblas.
- Crispy fried dough ridges
- Cinnamon sugar coating
- ZenOil in the chocolate sauce
Cannabis Avocado Oil
A Barcelona kitchen essential — avocado oil infused with cannabis for use in cold dressings, dips, and drizzles. Catalan cuisine relies on good fats, and this infused oil elevates everything from pa amb tomaquet to simple grilled vegetables.
- Cold-pressed avocado oil base
- Full cannabis infusion
- Use on salads, bread & dips
Cannabis Pasta with Herb Sauce
Barcelona's Italian influence shows in its pasta bars — simple, ingredient-led, relying on quality olive oil and fresh herbs. This cannabis pasta with a herb oil sauce draws on that Catalan-Italian tradition, with ZenOil adding a natural cannabis note to the fresh herb base.
- Fresh herb oil sauce
- Quality olive oil base
- ZenOil deepens the herbal notes
Cannabis Lemonade
Barcelona's beach bars and terraces serve limonada — freshly squeezed lemon with sparkling water, sometimes spiked with cava or gin. This cannabis lemonade uses fresh lemon juice and ZenOil emulsified in for a clean, bright, refreshing drink that belongs on a sunny terrace.
- Fresh squeezed lemon base
- Sparkling water for lightness
- ZenOil shaken in fully
Cannabis Chickpeas with Spinach
Espinacas con garbanzos — the beloved Catalan and Andalusian dish of chickpeas slow-simmered with wilted spinach, smoked paprika, and sherry vinegar. A Barcelona tapas staple reinvented with ZenOil for a warm, satisfying plant-based plate.
- Slow-simmered chickpeas
- Smoked paprika & sherry vinegar
- ZenOil drizzled over at serving
Cannabis Tiramisu
Barcelona's Italian-influenced restaurant scene does tiramisu exceptionally well — and in the city's tapas bars a small glass of something creamy and boozy after midnight is a tradition. ZenOil folded into the mascarpone cream makes this a dessert worth the journey.
- Savoiardi soaked in espresso
- Mascarpone & egg cream
- ZenOil in the mascarpone layer
