Awesome thanks.
Lol I sense some confusion here.
Strawvana was meant to be a strawberry vanilla softserve swirl with that yummy red raspberry syrup. If you're not big on the raspberry, I'd say half the %.
Glad you're enjoying it @rogue zombie

To me its like an extra thick strawberry shake made with Vanilla Soft Serve, fresh strawberries and a dash of syrup.
Its a very impressive recipe. The low percentages obviously allow the smaller notes to come through.
Thank you bud!

IIRC TFA is sweeter and is more about the top notes.
However, variety is the spice of life. Why not, I don't expect it will be bad, just different.
I would probably up the sweet cream by 0.2% to keep the sweetness of the ice cream and try and keep the recipe in balance if the TFA marshmallow is subbed with FA Marshmallow.
The sweetness that Cap's sweet cream is far more of a bottom note in my opinion, tending towards a burnt sugar level of depth with a noticeable hint of bitterness. I feel that using FA marshmallow will have less of an impact on the overall balance of the flavour than fiddling with the cream base.
But what do I know?
Always found FA Marshmallow on the bland side vs TFA or Cap. I assumed the marshmallow is used for lung feel and to sweeten up the mix? Was looking for a way to keep the sweetness from your original, but then again that rasberry is a sweet beast on its own
You're right I just meant that when trying to compensate for missing sweetness, increasing Cap sweet cream isn't an ideal candidate (in this recipe). It's a massively underrated concentrate IMO, I use loads of the stuff.

After letting Strawvana sit for a week I started vaping it last night and it really is a top quality recipe. Into my top 5 ADVs!
Thanks for sharing Mike!
I did sub cap sweet cream for tfa, will try it again with the cap version next.

Sorry, you meant the TFA not the CAP.
I must of had to much wine when i came up with this, but what a nice combo...
Frozen Chai or Spicy Ice Cream
INW Shisha Chai 2%
TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 5%
FA Caramel 0.5%
The spices in the Chai - mainly cinnamon but also Cardomen and more - really compliment the 'Vanilla Bean'. Then the Ice Cream and Caramel makes it luxorious creamy good.
It tastes like a spiced vanilla ice cream. Defenitely more dessert than tea.
Edit: I just googled now, and Chai Ice Cream is an actual thing. I may be a genius :0

I'm new to DIY and can still be classed as a 'DIY Disaster Area'.I ordered some more concentrates and this recipe caught my eye (even though I don't like Chai tea or coffee Meh!)so I made sure I got the right stuff in the order.
Been steeping for a couple of weeks and its brilliant! @rogue zombie you said you drank too much wine before you invented it,all I can say is drink more!

this sounds so lekka, gonna make it - but using a different coconut. I'm not a fan of TFA Coconut. I'll try it with FLV Macaroon and report back
I mixed this up last week and had a little taste test today - and I really enjoyed it. The strawberry is light and not sickly sweet as I feared it may be. I'm looking forward to officially breaking this open in a few days time.
Thanks for sharing Mike, this one's a winner
EDIT: I subbed TFA Marshmallow with FA's version.
