Hey man

I mixed this up last week and tested it on Saturday, super recipe, a real banger that I'll keep in my regular rotation.
The kiwi really comes through nicely on the exhale.
Kudo's to you sir.
 
So this has become my ADV, its the first recipe that i'm super proud of - nothing fancy, just a solid fruity DIY Recipe. But I want you guys to mix this one up and tell me what you think. View attachment 119896
Certainly one to be proud of @Chukin'Vape. I am loving it. The strawberries tame the grape soda just enough to make it vapeable all day long. Full mouth feel with lots of soda. Thank you for sharing the recipe.

Thanks for the kind words man, much appreciated! I always have a bottle of this on-hand and it's easily one of my favourites.

...and here I was thinking, you mixed me up - didn't like it, and didn't want to be negative online - so just never said anything about it... hahaha.
This was a nice surprise, thanks @Andre - awesome to get some great feedback on this recipe. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Pychee
A vitalizing blend of fresh pear and vibrant lychee, accented with a touch of coconut.

This combo remains one of my all time favorites but I could not find a recipe which celebrated these magical flavours well enough, hence the creation of Pychee (Pear/Lychee).

FA lychee brings the authentic, fresh, lychee flavour to the mix and lays the foundation for the lychee layer. Lychee's unique tropical flavour (described by some as a mix between watermelon, pear and grape) is unmistakable and magical! Cap Sweet Lychee boosts the FA Lychee with a sweet, canned lychee vibe and rounds the lychee profile off perfectly.

The pear layer is courtesy of my favoutite pear combo consisting of FA & INW.
FA Pear brings the fresh, juicy pear element whereas INW Pear provides the grittiness, crunch and texture of a pukka pear.

FLV Persimmon is described by many as a peach/plum hybrid. I pick up up wonderful, deep, pear/quince nuances which intensifies the pear profile and adds that little intrigue to the mix...

The Persimmon can be substituted for TPA Dragonfruit at the same %. The dragonfruit variation is excellent, I just prefer the persimmon version.

FLV sweet coconut fulfills 3 roles here: it provides a touch of creaminess, a spot of sweetness and imparts that magical taste of fresh coconut ensuring adequate depth in the mix.

Feel free to add your cooling agent of choice - WS23 at 0.5% is just enough IMHO.

Give this one a good night's sleep, 3 preferable for the floral notes to dissipate.

Why did i take up DIY as a hobby. Now i have too many recipes and dont know which to do 1st as the same as this lychee pear my mouth is watering already lol.
 
May I ask what's the percentage conversion from WS-23 to Koolada please?
Personally, I do not use Koolada above 0.5% and definitely not more than 1.0%. It starts tasting like cardboard and irritates the throat. That said, I have seen it in recipes at 2.0%, which might approximate the 1% WS-23 in that recipe, but still a different and less neutral kind of cool.

Inspired by one of the Suicide Bunny's juice descriptions: "Sweet strawberry and tart Lemons..."

A labour of love (truly explored recipe):

INW Shisha Strawberry 4.25%
INW Juicy Lemon 2.25%
INW Raspberry (Malina) 0.25%
FW Shirley Temple 1%

70VG recommended. 1 week, at least steep.

It's sweet Strawberry and the rest add tartness and Lemon.

Sweet, tart... refreshing

A celebration of the wonderful spectrum of citrus.

This simple mix combines the best citrus flavors around to give you a vibrant, refreshing, citrus smack!

INW Shisha Orange is, as I said before, a phenomenal orange... It is a full, juicy, fresh orange with no artificial notes. This is straight up orange juice without the acidic notes or annoyingly sweetness present in most orange concentrates. There is a fabulous zesty back note which emphasizes its authenticity perfectly.

Sweet tangerine provides a familiar, but not distinguishable, sweet citrus taste and blends wonderfully well with the orange to give us a full, well rounded citrus feel and more importantly, the sweetness element.

Cap lemon lime brings that refreshing, sharp (but not too sharp) lemon flavor followed up with a sweet lime punch all in one.
I could have gone for other, more pronounced lemon or lime flavors, but this baby just works so well in here that no other lemon is required.

INW Grapefruit is undeniably grapefruit and brings the final citrus element in the way of bitterness. This beauty is very realistic and encapsulates a fresh, white, grapefruit perfectly, skin and all.

Feel free to 0.5% WS23 or Koolada to make this a chilled version.

This baby needs 2 days or so for all the fruits to blend.

This looks and sounds amazing @Rude Rudi !
Have you tried LIT Sidechick - one of Vape Cartel's juices?

I love it so would like to try your recipe someday

@Silver I have these ingredients on route from BLCK, I was thinking about Sidechick when I saw this recipe and that inspired me to go for this one. I will let you know how it compares

Thanks!

I have tried Sidechick (won it at the last vape meet in Sandton), but alas, it’s was not my cup of tea. I found it cloyingly sweet for my taste preferences and piffed it to a more deserving palate...

Ok thats cool
interesting
Our palates are all so different - I dont find it too sweet or cloying
Must try your recipe though and of course, I will add lots of cooling.
Hehe, maybe thats why I dont find the Sidechick too sweet maybe my menthol nukes the sweetness a bit.

Indeed - not sure if it is a natural extension from real life where I have been completely off sugar for just over 5 years that I do not add any sweetener to any of my recipes...? Banting juice line incoming! Lol
 
FIESTAS and FIASCOS
NxDkl6K.jpg

The album Fiestas + Fiascos was Lifter Puller's rock-opera grand finale. And defined them.

The juice is as distinctive. Cult-distinctive! Find the original recipe here.

It has been on my list since it was published in September of 2016, but alas FLV Yakima Hops only became locally available recently. It was worth the wait. Get it!

ConcreteRiver, the creator, describes it perfectly: "Sweet Guava with tart grapefruit and hops bitterness. Thick, dense, and juicy.". The interplay between the sweet, tart and bitter is amazing and has me wanting more and more. Read the many 5 star reviews to get a sense of the juice.

Fiestas and Fiascos
CAP Sweet Guava 5.0 %
TFA Vanilla Swirl 4.0 %
FLV Yakima Hops 3.0 %
LA Cream Cheese Icing 2.0 %
FLV Pink Guava 1.0 %
INW Cactus 0.5 %

Total flavour: 15.5 %

I've been meaning to ask you @Andre about your take on Yakima hops and it sounds like you have answered my question. Concrete says that he steeps it for seven days. I'm reckoning that you would have gone longer?

Yeah, I got impatient, mine only steeped for around 40 days:D. Yakima Hops certainly is a concentrate I want to use more of.
 
Icee Grape
An unashamedly fantastic chilled grape vape...

This is a continuation of my Icee range and compliments the rest of my chilled fruity range magnificently. Grape vapes are often taken for granted as they seem to be a ‘common’ fruit... BUT, when used correctly, it pays homage to the magnificence that is the humble grape.

Inw grape celebrates the grape, in its full glory, with a master stroke. Inawera has a nack for creating the most authentic fruit flavours and this is evident in INW Grape. It is a well balanced authentic grape with no profile dominating (sweet or acidity) which creates the most incredible, busts in your mouth, true grape flavour. This beauty does not contain the skin nor pips, which can often bring an unwanted bitter element.

The Fuji and Cactus provides a little juicyness and prevents linearity, often present in simple fruit vapes.
The cream adds a touch of mouthfeel to provide a bit of body and adds a little intrigue.
WS23 (or cooling agent of your choice) can be omitted or altered, depending on your taste profile.

Give this one 3 days to settle and she’s ready to go!

Icee Grape
0.5% FA Apple Fuji
0.5% INW Cactus
0.5% FA Cream Fresh
4% INW Grape
1%. WS-23
