A little bit of summer.
submitted almost 9 years ago by shinitsoTobacconist

Well, were solidly into winter now and everyone is getting warm with their cinnamon rolls, and pudding flavours. But if wherever you are is anything like the UK, at this time of year it's cold, everything is grey, and it's probably bloody raining.
So here is nice refreshing summery recipe for those of you already fed of wearing jumpers and hearing the same 3 Christmas songs 12 times a day.

Elderflower pink lemonade

FW - lemonade (natural) 5% TFA - citrus punch 3%
CAP - Italian lemon Sicily 2%
FLV - elderflower 1.5 - 2%
TFA - dragonfruit 1%
CAP - sweet raspberry 3%
TFA - strawberry ripe 2%

optional FA - lime (cold pressed) 0.5%
optional koolada (10%) 1.5%

Lemonade natural, Citrus punch, Lemon Sicily

okay, this is the balls of the recipe. Some of you will be big fans of LA lemonade, i have tried it in this juice but just trust me FW's lemonade natural has the edge. It brings a fresh cloudy sharp flavour to the juice whilst being sweetened and candied by the CAP lemon sicily. TFA citrus punch and another layer of sweetness without dulling flavour whilst helping combat the dryness you can get from the FW lemonade.

Sweet raspberry, Dragonfruit, Strawberry ripe

The pink bit. CAP sweet raspberry, is the perfect flavour for this mix not super tart but just flavourful enough to sit on top of all that citrus. The TFA dragonfruit helps bring this flavour to life giving it a kick up the arse so it gets noticed, if you don't like dragon fruit don't worry, you wont taste this but it is there for a reason. I'm sure everyone is familiar with TFA Strawberry ripe it add another layer of sweetness and helps mellow things out due to its ethyl maltol content. Why all the sweetness you ask?..

Elderflower

This stuff needs it. its strong is balls and hangs around on your coils like a damp fart. I left the percentage up to personal preference, mix up a 30ml tester at 1% if its not enough add 0.5% and again if needed, i really doubt you will need more than 2%. The sweetness helps this juice shine and the em from the strawberry ripe helps smooth the flavour out, obviously this is going to be the top note in this juice and is what make it what it is, the recipe was designed from the ground up to work well with this concentrate.

optionals

okay, if your some sort of crazed masochist that wants to be vaping cold stuff during the winter months go ahead and add the koolada, in the summer its banging, this time if year however i'm gonna be cold enough without it. The FA lime cold pressed can be added if you desire a little more zing or citrus from the juice and to take a step away from the candyness of it.

I'm going to try this with Elderberry and see how it is, as I don't have Elderflower. I know it won't be the same but I think it could still be good. Looks nice though :)

I'm a big fan of that Elderflower and I think this is a very well put together list of ingredients. Definitely excited to try it out! I might be missing the CAP Sweet Raspberry but I'm sure I can find a decent sub. Really good work man.

If you have it but haven't tried it yet, FLV Pink Guava goes really well with their Elderflower

From what I've heard pink guava tastes nothing like guava. I'm actually currently working on a guava soda type juice but struggling to get that fizz effect. Thanks champagne, citrus punch, inw sparkling wine and even 1%vodka just isn't working

It is slightly citrusy and kind of tastes like grapefruit. I haven't ever had a pink guava but I have had things that were made from pink guava and it tastes pretty similar to those.

Good luck with effervescence, IME the only concentrates I've noticed to have any noticeable effervescence is Cola concentrated and I'm sure that's mostly due to the spices in them. Let me know if you find something!

I'm Definitly gonna mix this up. Most of me all day vapes are lemonades and strong citrus blends. Looks similar but different

Shake n vape or does this have a recommended steep?

It will benefit from a 24 hour steep. but try to give it a week if you can.
