Perfect Pairs: E-Liquid, Food and Drink combos

[Lord Vetinari]

Hello friends,

Creating this thread for vapers to come mention a perfect pairing of vape juice and food. I dont vape WHILE eating unless there is a tapas out and its one big party, but I do appreciate it deeply when I fill a tank post-meal and it just WORKS. Phenomenal really. Well you know what I mean you have been there many times.

We are all flavor junkies here and flavors mixing with other ones? Bliss.

So here is my first one:

Salsa, Tortillas, and Smackaroon by Mr Hardwicks.

I just cannot describe how beautifully Smackaroon just soothes out the burn and mixes in with the spicyness. Unexpected and well worth a mention. The apple works SUPER well in this combo. Super nom.

Tripe and Trotter curry with Ecto Plasma... yummmmm - the 2 are meant for each other lol.

I dont usually vape and snack/eat at the same time but I have come to enjoy a cup of Earl Grey (no milk and 1 tsp sugar) tea while vaping Dr. Crimmy's Key Lime Yogurt.

I know this is not exactly food but I found a good cup of coffee and DDD go sooooooo well together.
My particular fave is Mocha Kenya and DDD, the dry cocoa chocolatey pastry DDD really picks up the soft cocoa notes in the coffee

The last few days (on night shift last week and this week) I been waking up and this has been my "eye-opener" vape of choice.

Same here, also keen to see what other combo's work well together.
Great idea for a thread @Lord Vetinari!

Never been keen with smoking or vaping and food, but liquid refreshments are another story. Citrus flavours all day with beer, and Ernestly Hemingway with Jack on the rocks, works nicely

Good ground coffee goes really well with ELP's Custard Razzler or, if you're wealthy, Kali's Valley Girl. Also, Moondust is a great coffee pairing -- although it largely depends on the coffee's notes and how they contrast with the notes in the liquid. As mentioned before, DDD goes well with coffee too. Although, again, I like the contrast to bring out both.

Purple Alien pairs with any spicy, meaty food amazingly well -- especially a very strong biltong. When your mouth is burning nicely, have a toke; the spices really bring out the smoothness and sweetness of the liquid and it also soothes the burn.

Double Vodka and Tonic with Vape King French Strawberry as a sundowner on a hot day is an absolute pleasure.

Moondust and coffee... YES. I love it. As my budget frees up I will give Valley Girl a go too. I love the coffee pairings.

Ernestly Hemingway... lol. I HAVE to try it by merit of name alone.

A dark roasted, bitter cocoa or nutty coffee can bring out the most amazing notes in dessert juices. Interestingly, Woolworth's blends were almost made for vape pairing for some reason and they're available easily. If you're feeling a bit more generous however, try Portland Project or my favourite, Rosetta Roastery. Both can be bought at Cape Coffee Beans.

Heeeey well the way this convo is going I am going to end up a poor man... for now I guess I can manage Woolworths house brand ☺

It has to be a joke, who in their right minds mixes trotters and tripe in the same curry. It's either Trotters and sugar beans or tripe and broad beans.
I'm hungry now

It is most definitely a joke. I will not be seen dead with Tripe, Trotters or Ecto anywhere near me.

Well on a drink base Hazeworks Sunset and Mountain Dew go down extremely well. The Mountaindew really help bring out the vape taste

@gertvanjoe I have been playing with the idea of enhancing flavors by eating similar flavors. Like an orange and a citrus juice. Your idea seems right up that alley. I like Mountain Dew not usually a soft drink fan... Sunset is the pineapple one right? I can see how they will pair up. Good one.

Trotters gave it away for me. Tripe not so much - Cespian lives quite close to the butchery that apparently has the best tripe in town.

I suppose you are referring to Goodhope (Saltriver Circle)? If so, I avoid that very first isle like the plague haha (only from time to time I will go pick up a huge piece of Corned Beef from that isle)

You know, mos.

I remember going there with my mom to get some tripe for my grandmother. I've never tasted it, but the smell of it boiling still haunts my dreams.
