If you were cloning "Thug juice"...

submitted almost 12 years ago by Briixx

It's apparent that mbv buys all their flavorings from flavor West. If you were going to duplicate "Thug juice", what flavorings would you buy?

I so so dedicated to figuring this out haha

Would like to know this as well.

I recall someone posting a recipe for Hawk Sauce from FW flavors previously, but I can't find it on a search.

Anyone have the link handy?

flavorwest jungle juice = thug juice, even the menthol is already there

Is this why I can't tell the difference when ordering both from MBV? What % do you use?

I use 20% but I'm by know means very good at this diy stuff, just happened to buy some jungle juice mix it then go "WTF this is just thug juice" only thing is the menthol in this is a little stronger then mbv recipe they might be adding something else to mute it.

I have always found that menthols smooth themselves out after a bit of steeping. They always seem to overpower at first. Hopefully some time is all it needs.

And BTW, thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I had no idea it was even similar.

Watermelon and grape , maybe menthol and sweetener as well

This. Also, MBV uses FlavorWest so all you really need to focus on is %'s

i remember someone saying that mbv sticks to like 13% flavoring and then a flavor shot was 2% more

And then I would guess it is a watermelon, grape, menthol and something mix

I recently did this. It is by far a HUGE leap above MBVs Thug Juice. It doesn't even compare in flavor.

No. I made my own version of Thug Juice.

There are two identical "Thug Juice" recipes on ELR: http://e-liquid-recipes.com/list?q=thug :)

TFA Thug Juice clone recipe:

Watermelon 13.5%
Grape Juice 8%
Sweetener 2%
Koolada 1.5%
Menthol 1.5%

I don't have notes on where I got this, probably r/diy_ejuice or the ECF TFA thread

Sweetener is sucralose I'm assuming?

Edit: Just made it. It's smelling like Thug Juice. Substituted the possible Sugralose with EM. We'll see.

Will report in a few days and keep ya updated. Thanks again!

TFA makes a "Sweetener" flavor but I'm not sure how it differs from EM. http://goo.gl/LxHKYC

Menthol is way too strong at that ratio.

I'll drip it again tonight and give you a decent update.
