How to Prepare Brown Sugar-ristic: Step-by-Step

Clean and Set Up Your Hookah
- Start by thoroughly cleaning the vase, stem, and hose to ensure no lingering flavors interfere with your session.

Mix the Flavors

-
Pack the Bowl
- Use a phunnel or vortex bowl to retain the shisha’s juices and maintain the flavor.
- Lightly sprinkle the mixed shisha into the bowl, leaving a small gap below the rim to avoid contact with the foil or heat management device. Keep the pack fluffy for smooth airflow.
-
Prepare the Coals

-
Assemble and Heat
- Place heavy-duty foil over the bowl, securing it tightly, and poke small, evenly spaced holes for airflow.
- Add the coals on top and let the bowl heat for 2–3 minutes.
-
Begin Smoking
- Take a few gentle puffs to start the session and allow the flavors to meld. Adjust the coals as needed to maintain even heat and avoid burning the shisha.
