I came across a juice called Blueberry Fizz by BonVape the other day. They somehow combined blueberries with a fizzy, almost carbonated mouthfeel. Is there a way of achieving this type of note without it affecting the primary flavor? I basically want to "fizz up" a few fruits into somewhat of a soda-like recipe.
Thanks!
FA Cola achieves this effect well, and is a great (IMO the best) cola flavoring.
TFA Champagne works as a more neutrally-flavored "fizzer".
> TFA Champagne at what % ?
1-2% can help "fizz" a recipe without really altering flavor. Depends on the rest of the mix, though.
Cola gummy by cosmic fog has a similar mouth feel. I too would like to know how they get the fizzy quality.
Anyone experimented with Triacetin to achieve the fizz?
As in Vape Wizard? Doesn't that mask out rough notes? I'm trying to emulate carbonation, sort of, lol
Triacetin is a weird additive.
It can be used as an alternative to PG as a flavour carrier or as you mention to smooth out the jagged edges.
But there's also lots of discussions around the possibility that it is Triacetin that adds the fizz to juices and flavourings but I've not found a single account of anyone reporting the results of experimenting with the stuff.
FWIW, my conclusion is that 'the fizz' is probably caused by malic and citric acids playing tricks with our senses...
I've used small amounts of TPA Citrus Punch to achieve this effect with some success. Too much will let the citrus come through, but at 1 or 2 percent, it merely adds a carbonated mouth feel.
I imagine carbonic acid would do the job.
would simplify basify the solution. also import an alkaline taste, like in some types of noodles
How would an acid basify the solution, and how would it add alkaline flavors?
Carbonic acid is what some of the CO2 turns into when dissolved in water (however, it is chemically distinct from CO2); it's what gives soda the slightly lively flavor it has. Are you thinking sodium bicarbonate?
