After a few mixes that didn't out so well, I've finally come up with a mix that I'm quite proud of. I thought I'd share it with you guys. Let me know what you think.

Meloncholy

Honey Dew (TFA) 6%
Cucumber (CAP) 5%
Watermellon (TFA) 3%
Cantaloupe (TFA) 1%
Koolada (TFA) 2%
Sour (TFA) 1%
Juicy Lemon (CAP) 1%

I did a high VG mix with 3mg nic, and it's very delicious in my opinion. The Koolada gives it a nice cooling sensation and the Juicy Lemon really makes the cucumber and melons pop. You could probably replace the Koolada with menthol for a slightly different taste, but i dont have any menthol at the moment to try it.

After mixing, just give it a good shake or a run in an ultrasonic cleaner and it's good to go right away.

It reminds me of Cucumber Melon body lotion that you might find at Bath & Body works and Victoria's Secret.

Do you have TFA's cucumber? If so, would I be able to use it instead of the Capellas? I have every flavor there except Cap Cucumber :(

I don't have TFA cucumber because I didn't think TFA made a cucumber flavor. I couldn't find any when I was ordering flavors to make a cucumber melon, and that's the reason why I used Cap's. If TFA does have a cucumber, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use that instead of Capella's. The percentage to use should probably be about the same. Give it a shot and let me know what you think.

This sounds really good. I'd have to get everything but the koolada and sour, though. Saving this for the "To try next" list.

I've never been a fan of Koolada but I can see how it might play with the cucumber. Nice profile.

Big fan of melons and Cucumber. Will give this a go soon (out of Cucumber at the moment).

Were you trying to clone melon boba by good life vapor by chance? And if so how close doyou think you got?

I've never tried melon boba, so I couldn't tell you if it's close or not. I just really wanted to make a cucumber melon, so I thought i'd give it a shot.

Its basically a cucumber and melons mint blend.

Mint, you say? I didn't even think of that. That sounds great. I might have to order some mint and create a new mix.

This sounds like something I will really, really love. I'm going to make some today and it's probably going to be my new favorite thing. Might add a bit of guava and passionfruit in there, as well.

I added 1.8% FA Guava and 2.6% Capella Passionfruit, made 5 mL to test it out. delicious but a bit metallic/tangy? Reduced Juicy Lemon and Sour both to 0.5%. Reduced watermelon to 2%. Reduced cucumber to 4%. Reduced Guava to 1.3%, reduced Passionfruit to 2.0%. It's perfect. Might be good with a little custard or something as well but this is a perfect fruity tropical flavor.

It was so good I almost drank it (don't worry it was just 0 nic).

Edit: Just to post the adjusted recipe in a more readable format

Honey Dew (TFA) 6.0%

Cucumber (CAP) 4.0%

Watermelon (TFA) 2.0%

Passionfruit (CAP) 2.0%

Guava (FA) 1.8%

Cantaloupe (TFA) 1.0%

Koolada (TFA) 2.0%

Sour (TFA) 0.5%

Juicy Lemon (CAP) 0.5%

Looks great. I'll have to purchase the additional flavors with my next order and give this version a try.
