Adding drops of flavoring into your finished juice?

submitted about 10 years ago by xrjon0609

So I mixed up a Lucky Charms recipe from /u/Zellgadiss on this sub. It tastes great but I felt like adding some FA Marshmallow would add something nice to it.

I don't want to make a new batch so would it be acceptable to add say, 4 drops (around 0.1g or .5%) to this finished juice (20mL total)?

Is that generally an acceptable method to tweak recipes without making new batches?

Every batch:

Weigh empty bottle
Weigh full bottle
Note eliquid content's weight on notes sheet
If adding anything new, weigh current bottle weight and add drops by weight

Boom.

Yeah, I do that to a lot of my recipes, but be sure to annotate in your notes that you added something and how much you added.

Also, FA meringue is closer to the flavor of lucky charms marshmallows than FA marshmallow.

It's actually already in the recipe. I just thought Marshmallow would add a nice fluffy waxyness to it. Here is the recipe, again it's not mine, but critique it and let me know if anything can be added.

2% Bavarian Cream (TPA)
0.5% Coconut (FA)
1% Meringue (FA)
3% Vanilla Custard v1 (CAP)
2% Vanilla Swirl (TPA)
1% Vienna Cream (FA)

If coconut is added for creaminess, I'd replace it with .25% FLV coconut, it's much creamier. You could add some marshmallow if you're just looking to improve the mouthfeel.

I'm too poor to shell out for FLV, I'm sure it would be nice though :)

Just added 0.1g of FA Marshmallow and refilled my goliath. Took about 15 puffs to wait for the new juice to start taking over and I can tell the Marshmallow made it nice.

I don't have meringue, any suggest? Or please can you define the intention of that one on the recipe to try out with my stash. Thank you.

Again it's not my recipe, but I think this is essential. It creates the lucky charm flavor

I love this recipe as well. I left out the coconut altogether and I thought it was damn close to Lucky Charms.
