Does anyone have anything that is kind of sour patch kids flavored? I'm thinking of doing a gummy bear recipe and adding some CA, but I'm not sure thats going to give me quite what I want.
Holy hell, sorry I have nothing to add to this but that would be amazing. Sour Patch Kids are my all time favorite.
I WILL get something made. If I just have to bumble around until it happens.
TFA makes gummy flavor and a sour flavor. Putting those 2 along with a few fruits or something may get you there. I don't do much sour as it makes my throat sore.
I might play with this as an idea. I know 2 flavor juices don't really work out that well. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction, I guess I'll just have to play with it more.
Well You could use something like
TFA Gummy
TFA Sour
Ethyl maltol for sweetness
TFA Rainbow drops.
Just trying to give a bit of inspiration and I don't own most of those flavors.
This right here is a great start. I've been perfecting my skittles type flavor, and having a couple family members try out each batch. A couple batches ended up tasting like sour patch kids with everything here. Only difference, Citric acid from Nude, and blending a couple brands flavoring together.
> Ethyl maltol for sweetness
This doesn't really sweeten... You're better off with something like liquid Stevia for sweetness.
Is it just me or does sour give juice a very off flavor? Even in small amounts to gives a rotten flavor to my juice, which grows with time.
Sour Patch Kids are basically sour Swedish Fish, If you find a Swedish Fish recipe (TFA makes a Swedish Fish flavoring), you can add Sour, and either Lime, Raspberry, Orange, or Lemon to make the different flavors. I think Gummy would definitely help. Let me know how it is please!
One of my friends put actual sour patch kids in his juice, I tried telling him that it was a bad idea and it wouldn't work but apparently I'm the stupid one
I've tried one a buddy made, if you add enough citric acid to have it be sour enough it makes your tongue raw like the real thing :( I was sad cuz I thought I could bypass the raw mouth with my favorite candy. That said it was pretty good. Was blue raspberry and cherry sour patch iirc
Nooooooo, I created a recipe and I thought it was going to be first, better go back to trying to replicating French fries and ketchup.
Haha. I'm GOING to lock this recipe down. But if you want to weigh in on the idea train feel free lol
I'm not here to take the wind out of your sails, but I think it was /u/botboy141 that was dripping straight citric acid solution (the coating on warheads and sour patch kids) to try and find the sourest sour and came back saying that mimicing the sourness level isn't possible with that route.
It is also my understanding that the ph of a lot of those candies is extremely acidic (3 or 4 ph), and that is what your tongue is interpreting as that puckering sour. While I'm no sciencestician, I'm not sure I'd want to vape a liquid with a ph of 3.
See what you can come up with, but when researching the sourest sour for my own purposes, I could get "sourish" flavors, but not that pucker.
Yeah I did drip a straight 20% citric acid dillution, about the most I could easily dissolve in PG. It had a very very MINIMAL sour quality to it and stuck to my coils like nothing I've ever seen before.
Maybe someone else can figure it out but it aint me that's for sure.
