This was one of those things that just popped in my head with no basis and I went with. I've not used these flavors besided Blueberry prior to this mix, as these are kind of left over flavors out of big orders that I added to my cart on a whim. But I'm enjoying the outcome.

TFA Blueberry Extra @ 4%
TFA Pomegranate @ 5%
TFA Cranberry @ 4%
Optional: FA Lemon Sicily @ 0.5%
(Mixed at max VG with 3% 100mg/ml nic)

Alright, so the blueberry. TFA Blueberry Extra to me, is a weak flavor, but it brings a lot of body. Very prominent background note but not a lot of high end sparkle going on. To me this sets the base, it's distinct, but not overbearing. Its really filling everything out.
As I said, I haven't done any singular tests with Cranberry and Pomegranate besides a tongue test, but that doesn't help much really. I used the median percentage on ELR and bumped each up 1% based on the recipes I saw them used it.
Smell + tongue tests seem to indicate the Cranberry is more broad and full bodied, but lending a bright tartness. Pomegranate seems to be mild and sweet. I could be way off, but in the vape I get a darker Cranberry note, and that higher zing of Pomegranate sweetness. To me, the real life cranberries and pomegranate are very similar, they both are sweet, yet sour, and I feel these flavors are very near the mark at these low percentages.
The lemon is there for some zing to make everything pop. I don't feel I need to elaborate on that.
I think you could probably bump the percentages way up on the cran and pom, it's a very mild vape as it stands, but that's what I was going for.
Well that's it folks, that's me trying to talk up a probably very mediocre vape making it seem amazing and complex when it's nothing but 2 random berry flavors and whatever the fuck a pomegranate is (for real what's up with all the little juice beads in a pomegranate, it's such a strange fruit). Hope you enjoy.
Edit:
Try adding FA Cream Fresh @ 0.5% and TFA Whipped Cream @ 1.5% for a thick berries and whipped cream type thing. Mmmm.

At least you didn't use "on the inhale" and "on the exhale" BS in your notes! :D
Nice one, I am eager to try this out, especially as the weather is getting warmer! Fruit vapes are great in the sun. I might add a touch of menthol (around 0.5). Thanks for posting!
Haha, honestly I don't ever taste much on an inhale. Maybe a body or thickness, but all the flavor comes through (on any juice) right before I exhale and with the exhale.
I've never noticed different notes like "lemon on the inhale, strawberry on the exhale". My palate is overall pretty muted it seems.
Nope, nothing wrong with you. Nobody can taste anything "on the inhale", unless you are sticking your device up one nostril and vaping that way.
Here's some extra stuff
There's is some volatile in either the Cranberry or pomegranate that is in TFA Greek Yogurt, I'm positive. That tart flavor is exact.
Also I'm now getting slight notes reminiscent of FA Black Currant, which I loathe as a flavor, but it's so slight it's not bothering me.
Somehow these 3 flavors are hitting so many notes and profiles I'm used to. It's weird.
Could it it be Acetic Acid (vinegar) your detecting. You can use this to see what flavors overlap if your curious.
Hmm could be! Though I'm not getting how to use that link, any flavor i click on I'm not seeing any ingredients.
Edit: I'm an idiot, I see now
