Adirondack Algonquin Recipe!

[rogue zombie]

wow, I have so much lov for these US juice makers that release their actual recipes when they discontinue them.

Adirondack (the awesome makers of the famous Placid) kindly shared their Algonquin recipe for us Reddit DIY.

TFA Accai 15%
TFA Lychee - 5%
TFA Plum - 8%
Ethyl Maltol - 3%

Id personally knock those percentages down for the modern high VG SubOhm vaping.

That sounds delicious, not too sweet.

Yip, and I would drop the EM altogether.

Plum and Lychee are both flavours I've desperately wanted to use, but didn't know with what.

 

[hands]

it sounds yummy but 31%
i will give it a go and drop down those % a tad

I read on the Reddit thread, that someone knocked it down to a third of that recipe, and it was delicious.

Let us know. Would you also drop the EM?

 

[hands]

I don't have any TFA Accai and will have to order some.

Would you also drop the EM?

yes, i would start at 0.5 and go up if needed

Agg Acai is not available in the land.

Im not going to ask Drew, because I'm pretty sure he will straight up knock me out if I ask for another flavour ☺

I was thinking some Boysen berry might work, don't know what Accai taste like so just guessing.

Me, personally, making 70vg juices, I don't need EM. VG has a natural sweetness to it. But ya, if I use it, it's never more than 1%.

I understand retailers, particularly US ones, sweetening everything up. Most humans primary "happy" taste is sweet. You will more likely be drawn to something sweet, rather than something that is not.

Oooh I have FW Booysen, and it's awesome.

Thank you, I will try that then.

I have read somewhere that US consumers want very sweet, but Europeans like less sweet. I am "European" in this regard!

Myself,

Well I like sweet, but a natural sweet. I don't add more, especially with fruit.

Did anyone make this? Feedback please?

Ye ive had a few bottles of it at 1/3 the recipe.

I like it, but it's unusual. TFA Lychee is far from sweet or candy like, so it brings a very "earthy" taste to.

Oh yes, I forgot about that - the EM is a must in this one, otherwise the Lychee is too pungent. I actually thought it was the Acai, but its the Lychee thats so pungent.

I really like the recipe at 1/3, but not many friends who tasted it do. The one that did like it, loved it.

Now you have me intrigued and I'd like to give it a go... Perhaps in a few months time.

@Andre, Should I be using TFA litchi or CAP lychee in this mix?

Cant find TFA lychee on the valley vapour website.

Why o why don't we just chuck all the no fly stuff on a ship. I mean it's not like we are a landlocked country

TFA Litchi - it is a matter of spelling. Here it is on VV's site: https://valleyvapour.co.za/?s=litchi&post_type=product

In my area, lychee is a very exotic fruit, I have never seen it available locally either fresh, frozen or canned, I have never seen one. I suppose if I lived in a large coastal city it would be available...but in the intermountain US, nope. I have no idea what it smells or tastes like, and am curious....could you tell me what a lychee is like? Sounds naive, but true.

Difficult one. Sweet smelling and the texture I would describe as like a skinless grape.

Tastes a little like Kiwi, I think. It's quite unique.

 

[CosmicGopher]

Sounds delicious actually
