Recipe for a green jolly rancher?
submitted over 11 years ago by sxeQ

I've been searching for a flavor that tastes like a green Jolly Rancher... that sharp green apple flavoring. I haven't found much in regular vendors. Any idea for a DIY recipe?

I second this. People told me to try TPA or TFA granny smith, but I don't think it tastes like the green apple jolly rancher at all

TFA makes a green jolly rancher flavor called "Apple Candy." You would want this mixed with granny smith, sour, and sweetener to make the profile you're looking for.

Tried it and it's terrible, at all levels of mixing. I would recommend flavour art or some other company to attempt this with. Even added some FA pear, which has a nice candy sweetness to it and it just falls very short.

I agree, the Apple candy is one I haven't succeeded with at all.

Really? It seems like such a simple flavor. I wonder why it's so hard to get the right taste. I've had one green apple juice that was spot on, I think it was like vista vapors or something. My buddy had a bunch of bottles from them and it was fairly good, but this was a year or so ago and it was in a clearo. http://www.vistavapors.com/green-apple/

TFA green apple is pretty close.

Inawera Two Apples has a really good green apple flavor to it. A but of tart and sour might make it a golf candidate. I've alao seen people add Juicy Peach to Watermelon in am attempt to get a jolly rancher esque flavor. So that might help as well.

I have Flavor West's Double Apple, and the green Jolly Rancher flavor is definitely in there - but it's mixed with a red apple candy flavor. Based off of that, FW Green Apple should be just what you're looking for.
