It is has been balls hot for the last 2 weeks so I wanted to work on a Pina Colada with a twist. I have been reading a lot about people having a problem with peach and I usually have the same thing. I have also tried this with Flavor West Apricot so if you have a sensitivity to Peach you can use that, however I have not had the harsh throat hit with this recipe.
(TPA) Coconut Extra 1%
(CAP) Golden Pineapple 2.5%
(TPA) Pineapple 1.5%
(CAP) Juicy Peach 3%
(TPA) Dragon Fruit 1%
If you want to make it more like a Colada Float add 1-2% (TPA) Vanilla Ice Cream.
Coconut Extra: I kept this really low for a Pina Colada because sometimes coconut extra gets really weird for me any % over 1. I think this percent gives it just the right amout of tropical note without overpowering the rest of the flavors. You can taste this mostly on exhale.
Golden Pineapple: I really love this flavor it is one of my favorite pineapple flavors. I tried to keep the percent lower so as not to overpower the peach completely which is supposed to be the star of this recipe, but I also wanted to overpower the peach slightly so as to take away part of the harsh throat hit.
Pineapple: This is just to throw in that more sweet pineapple that I think TPA brings to the table. Kept it lower for the same reason as the golden pineapple.
Juicy Peach: This is what I was most scared to use in this recipe although it was my challenge to make peach work for me without so much of a throat hit, that is why even though it is supposed to be the star of the show it is still at only 3%. It gives more of just a sweet peach candy taste mostly in the mid to exhale, but no throat hit which I am pretty proud of. As I said above you can do apricot instead if you still have a sensitivity to the peach.
Dragon Fruit: Finally, I threw in 1% of Dragon Fruit because it just rounds out all of the fruit flavors and it tones down the pineapple just a bit and from the research that I did, some people claim it takes some of the throat hit out of the peach.
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream: I personally enjoy it with and without the ice cream, but if you are someone who likes a more creamy vape with your fruit than the ice cream is for you. I know everyones taste is different so experiment with it on your own and find what you like.
Let me know what you think! It's a pretty good shake and Vape.
I just noticed the juicy peach was Capella. I only have tfa juicy peach... Going to make it anyway.
I don't think it will make too much of a difference. Let me know what you think!
Made it last night, tried it today for the day. Very good. Unfortunately I spilled my last 5ml's of tfa pineapple, so I had to swap with INW pineapple. I miss that tfa tang! I happen to love tfa pineapple, I know many people don't. The INW+ Cap mix nicely, but it is surely a little more subtle than if it had the tfa. I think this could support some mango or other fruit easily. But this is an awesome summer vape, if I make any tweaks, I will let you know!
So I've boasted about how Juicy Peach doesn't affect me (TFA, I don't have CAP). I've used it at 7% in some recipes and it was smooth.
So I thought I'd up it a little in this recipe to almost 4%
Pure. Throat. Destruction.
Maybe there's another culprit, but I don't think it can be anything else.
Tastes good though.
