So I said I would produce something, and I have. The Vanilla Almond Milk, in my opinion, is killer.

Vanilla Almond Milk

TFA Vanilla Swirl 4%

Used at 4% in both VTNW and Wayne's Straw Cereal Milks, What Can I say? Pure magic here. A great base for anything vanilla or milky or creamy. Goes well with other flavors even at 4% and can be utilize to accent many bakery or creamy recipes at 2% and lower.

FA Fresh Cream .5%

We want straight fresh cream here for a subtle milky undertone. True almond milk doesn't have a strong dairy flavor and neither does this juice. But we want it richer because almond milk imo can be a little watery unless you make it home made. Fresh cream adds a light creaminess without overpowering the almond.

FA Vienna Cream .5%

Another layer of light cream. Try to think of the vienna cream and fresh cream combo as one in the same. I didn't want the full vienna cream flavor but I wanted its properties. Almond milk has a discerning nuttiness to it that I think vienna cream really helps push just a bit without overtaking the buttery smooth almond in this mix.

CAP Vanilla Custard 2%

A low enough percentage, and another play out of Wayne's book, to add some weight. Vanilla bean ice cream muted things too much, and CAP french vanilla didn't add enough mouth feel for my liking. This takes the almond milk to the richness that it might normally be missing. Think of CAP VC V1 as our "xanthan gum" thickener here. It doesn't add much in terms of flavor at this percentage but it's holding things together and thickening them up quite a bit, even at that percentage.

FA Almond 1.25%

We want almond, but not the silk almond milk almond extract tasting stuff. 1.5 takes it into that territory. Instead of adding more almond, I dialed it back, paired her up with marzipan and a bit of AP to bolster the buttery nuttiness of the almond.

FA Marzipan .3%

Purely for sweetening the almond here and adding a very subtle layer of deliciousness. I haven't experimented much with this flavor except with an almond cake, and it does its purpose here. Higher gives you more dessert tangibles, and we want it just enough to add to the flavor without being noticed.

Holy Vanilla 1%

Yeah, don't sub this. And buy some if you haven't already. It is expensive but IMO well worth it. It comes and carpools the vanillas in it's delicious vanilla minivan into vanilla wonderland. This was the nail in the coffin.

AP .3% (Optional) The juice is completely fine without it. I love the extra bite that AP offers here, but .5% changes the profile too much and we don't want that.

That being said, if it's your profile, give it a try. I'm not doing much ingenuity here but taking my knowledge and variations on a few recipes and remixing them to make a profile that I wanted. It can be that simple, and I encourage you to continue mixing other people's recipes every now and then if your own ideas get stale. My recipes were not hitting the mark for a couple months, and I needed a fresh take. Vaping other's ideas helped me get to the ballpark where I wanted and helped me create something delicious.
