Don't forget to review the many recipes from the November thread.. Your next ADV may have already been posted there. Congrats to /u/chewymidget for the top-rated recipe of the month, which sounds amazing - mixing this one up this weekend.
Now get mixing!
Hey everyone! Ive been hard at work trying to produce my next ADV - lots of mediocre and even some total shit recipes but I came up with two that im stoked on, and wanted to share! They are still in development but are really quite tasty as they are right now. If anyone has any suggestions or input on how i can make them more authentic/more tasty, i am all ears! I like to write down as much as possible when developing recipes, just in case i need to go back and reference anything... so sorry if this post seems a bit long winded. I am also only a few months into doing DIY seriously, so if there is anything that seems off or misguided, please let me know so i can learn!
###Raffaelloko v1
ATF Link: https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/75336#raffaello_crisp_coconut_wafer_ball_w_almond_whipped_cream_center_by_astralmartian
Flavor Description:
Ok so this is one i havent seen around so far, so i wanted to take a (noobie) shot at recreating it in a vape. Raffaello's are probably one of my all time favorite confection, they are just so damn perfect. The thin wafer shell coated in a sweet milk kind of cream with little flakes of sugary coconut, on the inside of the wafer shell there is a buttery, smooth, light but rich cream that is just unreal. Buried in the creamy center lies a full almond, which just pairs perfectly with the other flavor notes! If you havent tried one in real life yet i highly recommend it, they are just perfect, its like a kinder bueno on steroids and without chocolate! I bought some for a reference while blueprinting this recipe, the main notes i was after was the nice crunchy wafer sphere, the buttery, smooth and delicious cream inside, the coconut outside and the almond inside.
Recipe:
- FA Almond - 1%
- INW Biscuit - 1%
- FA Coconut - 2.5%
- FA Cookie - 1.5%
- FA Cream Fresh - 1%
- FA Meringue - 1.5%
- INW Shisha Vanilla - 1.25%
- Additives - 2 drops CAP Super sweet per 30ml, 1 drop AP per 30ml
Flavor Notes:
- FA ALMOND - Used as the main almond flavoring in the mix. Trying to use it to emulate the almond in the core of the Raffaello
- INW BISCUIT - This is being used in conjuntion with FA cookie to create the night light crunchy wafer sphere, also brings some nice butter notes to the recipe
- FA Coco (coconut) - the coconut note of the recipe, this one is a bit more realistic and more along the lines of what im going for in this mix. This will be trying to emulate the flakes of coconut that are covering the outside of the Rafaello.
- FA Cream Fresh - This one is being used to help back up the creamy notes and prevent the mix from becoming tooo dry. Help contribute to the creamy whipped cream kind of core.
- FA Meringue - Used to sweeten up the recipe, bring some dairy notes, and make the whipped cream center a nice fluffy sweet vanilla cream.
- INW Shisha Vanilla - Using as the main vanilla note, its a bright delicious vanilla which is exactly what im after in this recipe.
- Additives - 2 drops Super Sweet per 30ml
Tasting Notes:
First batch mixed on:
- Tasting notes Dec 6th: Wow, this is actually starting to get really really tasty. Seems like i got lucky with the cream side of things, because it is tasting very similar to a real Raffaello. the bakery/wafer notes seem like they need to be more prominent, or maybe just need some more time to settle in with the creams. I get a nice smooth coconut texture, but i think this recipe could use a bit more coconut. Same goes for the almond, which i am considering adding some marzipan or maybe just subbing all together.
- Tasting Notes Dec 8th: Very similar in flavor to my dec 6th tasting notes, creams are more pronounced and there is a bit more bakeryness to it, but still feel like i can rework it to get a bit more authentic, especially in terms of bringing out the almond and coconut notes more.
V2 Changes:
Wanted more coconut notes and also more almond notes. Decided to try and add some FA marzipan in hopes it will boost both flavorings. Also raised coconut a little bit as well, since its supposed to be a main note in this recipe. Also wanted some more separation in the layers, in hopes i can get a nice creamy feeling (which is how v1 was) but also have a layer of delicious buttery wafer as well. Decided to add a little bit of TFA Graham cracker clear in hopes this will help. If you have any suggestions on how i can take this recipe to another level, please chime in and let me know! Always open to any suggestions!
Graham Mother Remixed v1
ATF Link: https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/77921#graham_mother_remixmonth_pear_graham_coconut_cream_by_astralmartian
Intro:
Went to the vape shop today and bit the bullet, spending $34 on a 60ml of premium juice for #remixmonth. Vaped it for a few hours now on my entheon rda and came up with this concept recipe. Right off of a shake and vape its actually pretty nice, but im interested to see how things fall into place after a steep. I wanted to start out simple with this recipe and work from there. I normally wouldnt release a recipe right after my first mixed batch (and without a steep) but i wanted to leave this one public since its remix month, and will develop it publicly, adding as much dev notes as i can.
Recipe:
- TFA Bavarian Cream - 1%
- TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust - 2%
- FA Coconut - 1.25%
- TFA Graham Cracker Clear - 3%
- FA Pear - 3%
Dev notes:
Tasting Notes: S&V Initial concept recipe mixed on Dec 7th
Right now im getting a smooth and somewhat buttery peach with a grainy bakery note in it. Seems kind of close to the recipe im trying to remix in some ways, but there is for sure some stuff i will need to tweak in the near future. Will be honing this recipe over the month and will hopefully end up with something close to the original juice. Where it stands right now, i actually kind of like my recipe right off of a shake and vape more than the actual graham mother, it has a warmer kind of vibe to it. Graham mother is quite nice as well though, but is a more delicate kind of flavor - which im gonna try and work this recipe towards.
Flavor Notes:
- TFA Bavarian Cream - Using this one mainly as an emulcifier and to add a bit extra creamy warmness to the recipe. For more authenticity to the recipe im trying to remix, I think i might need to swap this with fresh cream or a different lighter cream in the future
- TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust - Using this one for its sweet creamyness and also to help back up the graham cracker notes in this recipe. Seemed like a good fit with its very faint coconut notes, graham notes, and sweet creamy notes.
- FA Coconut - I feel like this might actually be the coconut flavoring used in graham mother, or maybe im wrong... I felt this would work best out of the concentrates i currently have. Might try and layer this with TFA coconut candy, because i think im tasting some of that in the actual Graham mother juice i have here with me.
- TFA Graham Cracker Clear - Main graham cracker note, just a nice bakery flavoring. Not too sure if this is the actual one that is used in the recipe im trying to emulate, seems a bit too buttery and warm compared to the orignal recipe. Might try swapping it out for FLV graham cracker or layering with FA cookie or FLV Graham Cracker
- FA Pear - Main juicy pear note, its the only one i have currently but it is delicious and tastes very similar to the pear note in Graham Mother.
- Additives - Added 1 drop CAP super sweet and 1 drop of Acetyl Pyrazine to my first mixed batch.
Extra Random Notes:
Thinking of working in/subbing in a few different flavorings floating around my mind to get a more authentic remix - FLV cream, FLV Graham Cracker, FA Cookie, FA Fresh Cream, FLV Sweet Coconut, FA Apple Pie, FA Fuji Apple, CAP Double Apple, FA White Peach are flavors that might work
I just got in several graham cracker flavours and had no idea what to do with them, you gave me some ideas! Thank you!
I've been messing around with almond flavours lately too, but I found I'm not a big fan of that amaretto kind of taste that most of the straight almond flavours have, including FA Almond. I just got some TFA Toasted Almond, think it could work really well in your recipe. Almost has a wafer-y kind of taste by itself. Nice full toasty flavour, tiny bit of that amaretto taste but not much.
can you mark your Raffaelloko recipe on atf as public? looks really good, will be mixing it up soon.
Oh yeah for sure haha. I am onto a second batch with a few changes, but i think my first batch is still better at this point. If you have any suggestions on how to get a clearer coconut note out of it please let me know :D still workin on this one. Its kind of my ultimate flavor profile for a juice, since raffaellos are my fav dessert! Really wanna nail it as perfectly as possible in a vape.
if you think the bakery note needs to be stronger my first step would be to decrease your creams and oddly, in most circumstances i've found fa's coco to function as a cream. to boost that coconut note i'd add either some tfa coconut candy or some flv sweet coconut around 0.5.
take a look at this recipe: https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/50429#croissant_aux_amandes_by_actionralf
this is by far the best bakery recipe i've tried in term of pronounced actual bready/grainy/cakey flavor and texture- the usage of cap's cereal 27 and fa's zeppola might be something you want to toy with if you decide to revise further. i'd like to try it as is tho- i generally love almost any recipe with fa's almond and inw's biscuit by default.
Rhubasberry Muffin Crisp. https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/73938
2% Raspberry (FA).
0.5% Brown Sugar (TFA).
0.5% Butter (TFA).
1% Cream (FLV).
3% Lembas Bread (FLV).
1% Meringue (FA).
0.3% Rhubarb (INW).
1 drop per 10ml Rich Cinnamon (FLV)
I usually don't post recipes, mainly because my pallet is shot to shit. My best recipes are usually 3-5 ingredients, 12%-16%. And I can TASTE them, not imagine what they taste like.
This recipe is a simple rhubarb/raspberry muffin crisp. I've been chasing this profile for quite a while, with lackluster results. I took inspiration for this version from a thread somewhere online, and now I'm not sure where. Even though the other recipe used only 2 of the ingredients (Meringue and Rich Cinnamon), I still feel I owe credit where it is due.
The trouble with this recipe was finding a decent muffin base that didn't require 3 ingredients on it's own. Enter FLV Lembas Bread. A great, full muffin that is a great neutral start, if a bit dry. Call in TFA Butter. ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY PERFECT playmate for Lembas Bread. Provides richness, and anchors the base of the recipe. Plus dem 'ketones nukka.
The brown sugar works in 2 seperate aspects in this recipe. Adding moistness and sweetness to the base, as well as working with the Meringue and Rich Cinnamon to create the "crisp". I think people underestimate the textural effects Rich Cinnamon. The flavor is obviously great, but it can add a fresh-baked feel to many bakeries at extremely small percentages.
The fruit portion satisfies two requirements for me. #1, figure out a way to use the may-be-stronger-than-betahydroxymethylfentanyl substance known as INW Rhubarb, and utilize a combination that doesn't rely on sweetness for flavor, and will not fade with time. Trying to find a Raspberry to work with INW Rhubarb was tough-INW's offering is much too similar as it is quite tart to me on it's own. TFA's tastes like grass clippings, CAP's was close, but didn't quite punch through or hold up to a steep well enough.
FA Berryl (Raspberry) ended up the only one besides MF that had the flavor I wanted, and the necessity of a 20 fortnight steep took the MF off the table. From there, it was just trial and error to figure out relative strengths of the 2 fruits after a week steep, knowing the INW Rhubarb HAD to stay @0.3% or lower. I tested the Raspberry @ 1%, 1.5%, 2%, and 2.5% with 2% being the magic number. Any higher and it takes over the muffin base, any lower and the Rhubarb buries it like it was gonna testify.
The FLV Cream helps round the whole thing off with more moisture and mouthfeel and blah blah blah blah. That shit is just excellent, put it in errthang, ya dig? Hopefully if you mix it, you'll like it, and leave some feedback. Quite decent SnV, but like anything, a few days to round out makes it all that much better
With that said I just realized it's the first of the month. Fuck. I could care less about the upvote shit, and I was trying to put this in at the end of the month, because I hate how this thread gets 100 replies in the first 4 days, then maybe 1 or 2 Mother Milk clones the rest of the time. Well, here's to using my knuckles to remember what months have 31 days! Enjoy!
Wow great notes... going to try this one just because of the notes. I am curious though with such good notes why you didn't put it in the main feed?
Well, in full transparency, sometimes I feel like my palate is an island unto itself. I've only had 3 people try this, and while they all loved it, I'd hate for someone to buy all those spendy flavors and then not like it. I'd love your feedback, and if you have any changes you think would help, please let me know! Thanks
Is there anything that I can sub Lembas Bread with? I'm in Australia and ordering flavours can be a pain because of the limited selection we have here :(
/u/chewymidget and me traded out a few FLV flavors recently, and I have finally discovered the joy of Milk Chocolate. For those who are skeptical of chocolate, FLV has some nice ones that you have to try to believe.
This one is a couple more flavors more than I usually use, but each one is necessary, especially the sweetener. It is pretty much the milk at the bottom of a bowl of chocolate cereal. 2 week steep is best.

Well?
I'm sorry, man. I haven't mixed this one up yet. I have only mixed one bottle so far this month. Shit going on with the home situation and life in general has drawn my attention elsewhere. Found out the landlord is selling the house a week before Christmas and it has "the worst case of black mold I've ever seen" according to the home inspector. To top it all off the roof is about to cave in so that makes it hard to sleep at night. About to buy a house here in March so with this new found knowledge is discouraging as getting into another house right now would be a waste of money. Haven't been able to get a leg up it feels like lately.
Anyways, enough of my sob story. It's humbling you value my opinion this much to as though! I promise I'll do this one up soon and obviously have to wait two week for it to sit. I'll throw a review up as soon as it's done!
> Milk Chocolate (FLV) .75%
I think that's quite high. /u/ID10-T used it at 0.08% in this recipe: Hear The Girls Come.
Enjoyable vape!
I also got TPA and INW Milk Chocolate but the chocolate that's going on in there tastes weird and "sour".
FLV Milk Chocolate is strong stuff but I’ve learned not to question the creator of Kiwi 🥝 Bourbon 🥃
Mixed this up this afternoon. Looking forward to trying it in a couple of weeks.
Cool. I'd like to hear any thoughts you have.
Will definitely report back. I just got FLV Milk Chocolate in one of my Black Friday orders and I am very excited to try it. I made 3 recipes using it yesterday: yours, u/ID10T's Brookside Blues, and u/RamboUnchained's Ganache Delight. They all smell heavenly and I can't wait to break into them.
This is delicious! Reminds me more of Cocoa Krispies milk than Count Chocula but close enough. Count Chocula definitely lends itself better to a catchy name!
I say Cocoa Krispies because of the level of chocolatey-ness. I like Count Chocula better than Cocoa Krispies but I like the milk Cocoa Krispies leaves behind better cuz it's more chocolatey-er! This is, indeed, a real lip smacker! I should have made more than 30 mL.
Thanks for the great recipe. I will definitely mix more to keep around to scratch my ever-present chocolate itch.
Can you sub FLV Milk chocolate with anything? I have HS Australian Chocolate and FLV Chocolate Dutche or however you spell it.
It would change it a lot. AC is pretty dry, almost chalky to me. CD is really good, but the coconut in it makes it hard for me to mix it with almost anything. BUT, I haven't tried it here. Might just be a tasty mix.
hmm might have to give it a try, might just have to bite the bullet and get some more flavorings haha. Never enjoyed chocolate vapes back when i bought premium juice, but that was long before flv was making chocolate concentrates... so maybe my mind will be changed
Well shit, I have all of these brb
btw your kiwi bourbon recipe is tight as fuck man.
Try the bourbon with TFA Apricot instead of kiwi, as /u/collenchyma mentioned. Breathed new life into that recipe.
A 2 week steep makes this choc cereal much better. I am about to finish my 2nd 100ml bottle! I hope you like it!
- TFA 5% Acetyl Pyrazine- .25%

Steep: 2 weeks for best results
This is the Tripoli tribute I came up with for the October clone challenge. I posted it in that thread, but I figured I’d put it here too just cuz. Last night I finally tried Tripoli, and my recipe is very much not it. It’s got more of a sweet dessert tobacco vibe, whereas mine is more of a spiced tobacco thing. So don’t go mixing this up hoping for a Tripoli clone, because you will be mighty disappointed. If I had to try to make the real Tripoli, I’d probably start off with something like 1.5% FE Turkish or FE Cigar with 2% TFA RY4 Double, and then build off of that. I tried a little something last night, and what I mostly got out of that was that FLV Fig at .5% is a tad too sweet and prominent. So probably don’t try it with FLV Fig.
But anyway, there’s my tribute to it. Again, not close to a clone! Just a similar profile.
Good stuff, bro. Only missing the HS EC. Can I sub it with any of my StixxMixx/FA/INW/FLV/HS tobaccos? I've also been mixing almond (and marzipan, FA) up lately, but have been failing hard. Or maybe I'm just vaped out!
Do you have a clove flavor? Elder Captain has a pretty heavy spice note that is almost like cardamom, clove, and then a pretty dry tobacco in the background.
No clove/cardamom. Wondering if TFA Turkish will work at a super small percentage. That is heavy on spice. Going to try it out with a 10ML tester first. I just think the leather in it won't blend well. Maybe FLV Turkish will work. FLV Oriental is too vegetal.
Here's my berry lemonade. Took close to a year to get this recipe just how I wanted it.

Hey guys, me again.
I'm not sure what's actually going on in this recipe, but each ingredient works in cohesion with every other. I'll try to explain my concentrate choices.
TFA Vanilla Bean Gelato — while actually reminding gelato it is a nice smooth vanilla without peppery note. It is sweet and milky which helps to balance out the lemongrass while keeping things vanilla and creamy at the same time.
FA Meringue — used here as a powdered sugar, helps with sweetness, mouthfeel and that "sugar lips" effect that makes you crave for one more hit.
INW Strawberry Shisha — sweet jammy strawberry. Even though many of you thinks that 1.66% is a lot for this aroma fear not, it will be supressed by lemongrass, so 1.66% is just enough. Blends nicely with gelato as a filling.
FLV Lemon Grass — the star and the god of this recipe. Yes, 0.25% is plenty. It reminds fruit circles, lemon zest and lemon candy alltogether while keeping it's own identity. Helps strawberry with it's tart note. Works extremely well with VBG.
CAP Super Sweet — while being optional it seems to make taste better overall. Candies are sweet, you know. Besides that it really helps strawberries.
Recipe is good as shake and vape, but keeps changing through steep into more milky and strawberry version of itself.
Try it. It is delicious and uncommon, and I think those of you who have sweet teeth would like it. And those who haven't may find it interesting as well.
Blasphemy! You need to use 1.67% INW Strawberry Shisha, not 1.66%!
Looks like I'll be adding FLV Lemon Grass to my next order, this recipe looks interesting.
Homer's D'ohnuts (Flavor total: 10.5%)
Flavor | Amount --------|------- Glazed Donut (CAP) | 3.25% Frosted Animal Cookie SC (RF) | 2% Vanilla Cupcake (CAP) | 1.25% Meringue (FA) | 1.25% Strawberry Ripe (TPA) | 1% Whipped Cream (TPA) | 1% Cookie (FA) | 0.75%
This is a donut with the pink frosting (Homer Simpson's favorite). It's a pretty simple recipe and uses all common flavors except for RF Frosted Animal Cookie SC.
CAP Glazed Donut, CAP Vanilla Cupcake, FA Cookie: The donut base. I luckily don't get the "play-doh" taste from CAP Glazed Donut, so it's quickly become my preferred donut flavoring. But it's not used at a super-high concentration, so it still might work for you even if you are one of the people that get this off flavor from it. Small amounts of CAP Vanilla Cupcake and FA Cookie are just there to support the CAP Glazed Donut.
RF Frosted Animal Cookie SC, TPA Whipped Cream, FA Meringue, TPA Strawberry Ripe: These make up the pink frosting, and RF Frosted Animal Cookie pretty much spot-on nails this flavor. I don't get much of a cookie flavor from this, to me it's all frosting. It's strong, so you might want to drop this one down to 1.25–1.5% if you don't want the donut drenched in frosting like I do.
The other flavors just round things out a bit. The TPA Whipped Cream and TPA Strawberry Ripe adds a bit of extra sweetness, without getting cloying or even having any noticeable strawberry flavor due to the low percentage. And FA Meringue just coats everything in that sugary glaze it mimics so well.
This recipe started out extremely simple – just 4.25% CAP Glazed Donut and 1.5% RF Frosted Animal Cookie SC. And just those two flavors gets it over 90% there. In fact, if I'm in a rush and need to whip up a batch of juice as quickly as possible, that is what I often find myself making. The simple version works as a shake and vape, unlike the full recipe which needs several days before becoming its best.
The other flavors were added in one by one, and are really just accents and enhancers.
Butter Butterscotch Scotch.

http://e-liquid-recipes.com/recipe/1883847/Butter%20Butterscotch%20Scotch
Simple recipe (my first posted). I feel it needs something to tie the pistachio in, but I am a pistachio nut, it just gives an edge at the back of the flavour that stops it leaving the sweet taste in my mouth (that I don't like)

There's nothing particularly new going on here since this recipe is kind of a remix of Vurve's Birthday ice cream Cake (https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/16823) which I completly adore. I'm still learning the ropes but thought this was worth sharing.
Cake Base: The usual suspects, JF Yellow Cake and CAP Vanilla Cupcake.
Ice cream layer : ID10-T's magic formula, HS French Vanilla ice cream (0.5%) and LB vanilla ice cream (4.5%). This has been slightly thickened up and emulsified with Favorah Cream.
Accents: I'm not a huge fan of banana but I love a hint of it in juices. LA Banana cream provides a hint of candy/ taffy banana, as if the ice cream has ripples of banana syrup through it. However, FLV Milk and Honey does some magic here and combines with the banana to give the ice cream cake a lovely warm, slight boozy sweetness. TFA Toasted Marshmallow was added for mouthfeel but also to provide some brown sugar sweetness. It particularly works well with FLV Milk and Honey, as I learnt from Cheeba Steeba's amazing Milk & Honey recipe. (https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/13546#milk_honey_by_cheebasteeba)
And that's it! I'm sure more experienced mixers could do much more with far less ingredients than I have used here but the recipe tastes quite good as it stands.
If I had to sub out another vanilla ice cream because bull city doesn't have LB in stock, what would you suggest?
I would avoid CAP VBIC. I go for LB first but FW or TPA work great too. Capellas vbic is wack

You can read flavor notes on the ATF link if you wish. I want to use this space instead to admit that I cheated.
While others were scrambling with just a week to put together a #TheChristmasMix recipe for a charity event, I just added some BS to my description of a recipe that I'd been working on for months to feebly attempt to tie it in to the holiday season somehow. There was no prize for best recipe or anything like that, but considering it would be still measured against others that had only days for development, I cheated. I am a bad person.
But on the upside, it's a good recipe, if this sort of thing appeals to you, not some thrown together stuff.
This one brought me back to something I haven't done in a several months, batching out several different versions at once and testing them side by side to determine which ones would move forward for further revision and which ones were mistakes. Before this, I'd taken a break from batching, and all of my recipe development was linear - mix, taste, revise, repeat - on at a time. Rather than mix five different versions and pick the best two, mix five different versions of those two, and so forth.
TLDR; Lots of work went into this, and I should be flogged for cheating instead of actually coming up with a last-minute #TheChristmasMix.

A take on a peach Melba. The raspberry component could be better and eventually will be but for now it will do.
Just wondering if this is a clone of Papa Shango from Liberty Vape.?

- 1.5% (TPA) Vanilla Swirl
- 3.5% (TPA) White Chocolate
If that reminds you of Raffaelo, you're not wrong. So why not add sugar cookie & biscuit for that wafer layer.
- 0.5% (FA) Almond
- 0.5% (INW) Biscuit
- 0.75% (TPA) Butter
- 0.75% (FA) Coco' (coconut)
- 2% (CAP) Sugar Cookie
- 1.25% (FLV) Sweet Coconut
- 1.5% (TPA) Vanilla Swirl
- 3.5% (TPA) White Chocolate
It's not 100% Raffaelo, so it's more like an hommage then the actual thing.
Are notes required? Everything is pretty Duh and well known and stolen from other great recipes (the coconut combo from Leche De Coco) etc etc. Feel free to add more Super Sweet if that's your thing.
If you like white chocolate and coconut you should try it. Creamy and tasty.
oh nice! looks like you are a raffaelo fan as well! Will have to give your recipe a try! I have been working at making my own take on a raffaelo as well.
Yeah I saw it and it looks tasty. I hadn't had a Raffaelo for some time when I mixed mine and when I had a real Raffaelo yesterday, I was shocked how much the coconut dominates and how sweet it is. That being said, mine is not very close. White chocolate is the main note and coconut is an accent. If I would aim for a real Raffaelo experience I would add much more coconut and much more sweetener. For in your face coconut check out the linked Leche De Coco. The combination of FA Coconut, FLV Sweet Coconut and the TPA Cheesecake Graham Crust (I guess this also plays a part) might help you tremendously in the coconut department.
Edit: Fixed link.
Tfa vanilla bean ice cream 3% Flv boysenberry 3% Tfa strawberry ripe 0.75%
Boysenberry ripple ice-cream.
Steep for 5 days. It's a super simple recipe. I added the strawberry just to brighten the berry flavour - it hides in the background and makes the boysenberry stand out from the ice cream.
Blackberry Milk Tea
OSDIY Blackberry 4%
OOO Milk Tea 2%
OOO Cream (Milky Undertone) 1%
FLV Vanilla Pudding 3%
If you like berries, grab OSDIY's Blackberry. Fairly authentic with a really mild candy undertone. It is VG-based so I'd allow the whole thing at least a week steep.
Something else to pick up when I run out of OSDIY's Blue Raz Slush! Awesome, thanks!
With the annual decadence and indulgence feasts only round the corner, I have made a recipe that is both refreshing and light.
I made this recipe because I find it difficult to puff on sickly dessert flavours after a blowout meal and a crate of wine.
REFRESHING FLORANGE:
INW CACTUS @ 0.9%
CAP FRENCH VANILLA @ 1%
CAP HIBISCUS @ 3%
CAP JUICY ORANGE @ 2.5%
TPA PINEAPPLE @ 0.3%
INW RASPBERRY @ 2%
1 drop of WS-27 per 10ml
1 drop of Ethyl Maltol per 10ml
Mixed at 20/80.
Personally, I have never really let a recipe steep for more than a couple of days and never had a problem.
I did, because it's cold, put the finished article in the airing cupboard for half hour then take it out for a run with me, so it had time to thin and then get a vigorous shake.
Would love it if someone else could make this recipe and give some feedback.
Merry Christmas!
Would you say that dragonfruit would be a good substitute for the hibiscus in this recipe if necessary?
Well, frankly I'm still a bit of an amateur with DIY and flavour pairings, but I have the day off tomorrow and was gonna experiment a bit, so I will try it out.
I would say that hibiscus is a subtle and delicate flavour and dragonfruit is quite powerful, so I'd definitely drop the percentage.
Ok tried my hand at a classic vanilla custard with blueberry. Let me know how to improve.
Cap vanilla custard 6%
Tfa Graham cracker clear 3%
Tfa Bavarian cream 2%
Tfa blueberry extra 1%
I made this recipe without the blueberry extra and it was ok not great. Thanks in advance.
Dark Blue
FA Bilberry - 3.2%
FA Joy - 1.5%
FA Marshmallow - 1.5%
CAP Vanilla Custard v1 - 4%
Steep at least 1-2 weeks. Better with age. Have tried INW Raspberry instead of FA Bilberry at a lower % and it's pretty good, but I only really remake the Bil/Blueberry version.
It's a rich, dark, blueberry true custard. One of my first recipes...there have been flavors that have come out since I made this that might fit well as additions. Any brand Marshmallow can be used, FA does fit best though. Splitting the 3.2% with Bilberry and Blueberry Extra may lighten it up a bit. If you replace Bilberry with Blueberry completely, I'd bump up the VC1 to 6-8% and omit Joy for a second Marshmallow or similar 'full' mouthfeel flavor or CAP Sweet Cream, and maybe adding 2-4% of another Vanilla.
Here is my second version of my Graham Mother Remix. Imo im starting to get pretty close to the original juice but would love some second opinions on percentages and stuff like that. Feels like im still missing something, just cant seem to put a finger on what it is... Might be TFA Coconut Candy, that concentrate seems to be crossing my mind quite a bit. Anyways, heres my current rendition of my remix:
Graham Mother remix v2
- 2.00% Cheesecake (Graham Crust) (TPA)
- 1.50% Coconut (FA)
- 1.00% Cream Fresh (FA)
- 1.50% Graham Cracker (Clear) (TPA)
- 2.50% Graham Cracker (Flavorah)
- 1.00% Kiwi (FA)
- 0.50% Pastry Zest (Flavorah)
- 2.50% Pear (FA)
Flavor notes:
-
TFA Cheesecake Graham crust - Using this one to add some extra creamy elements to the recipe. Also has some graham notes so that will help back up the graham cracker flavor in this mix. This concentrate is said to have some slight coconut notes so that might help out the coconut notes in the recipe(i havent noticed coconut notes from this concentrate personally, but i dont think my pallet is as distinguished as others, regardless, it seemed like a good fit for this recipe)
-
FA Coconut - This one is the main coconut. It seemed to be struggling to push through on my first batch so i raised its percentage a bit in this changed batch. Might end up adding some TFA coconut candy if its not strong enough after this juice steeps.
-
FA Cream Fresh - Using this to help add some mouth feel and creamyness without affecting the other flavors in the recipe or weighing the recipe down too much. The authentic graham mother is a creamy juice, but it is also kind of delicate and fresh at the same time.
-
TFA Graham Cracker Clear - In my first mix i was using this one as the main graham note, although it tasted pretty good, i dont think it was the right one for this particular job. I still wanted to have it around to back up the graham notes, so i let it take a back seat and lowered it to 1.5%. It brings some nice grainy notes to the table, which i think helps out the overall graham flavor of the recipe.
-
FLV Graham Cracker - Trying to use this one as the main graham note in this new batch. Not very experienced with this concentrate but from what little experience i do have, it seemed like it could work nicely for this application. It seems like a bit less heavy and less in your face compared to TFA's graham cracker clear.
-
FA Kiwi - Here is where things start getting crafty (imo). So just by chance, i was vaping a different recipe where i used FA Kiwi as a main note in a simple mix. After vaping it and then going and vaping my authentic graham mother juice, i noticed it has some similar qualities. My first batch felt close in regard to the pear notes, but seemed like it was missing something. Kiwi might be the ticket.
-
FLV Pastry Zest - Kinda felt a bit experimental and decided to add a little bit of this for some extra complexity. I was thinking the citrus zest might help bring some brightness to the pear notes. This also has a bit of spice notes to it, which can help out the FLV graham cracker. I also get a bit off a doughy/pastry note from this, and thought that might make things a bit interesting. Seems to have worked decently, but i might make a batch and exclude this flavoring to see if its even necessary.
-
Fa Pear - Pretty obvious why i use this concentrate, its the main pear note of the recipe and its a damn good pear concentrate. I also believe this might be the concentrate used in the authentic graham mother recipe... but we will never know for sure.
This looks amazing! I've never had Graham Mother, but you're just trying to remix the same profile or maybe even improve on it, you've probably already succeeded. But if your goal is to actually clone it as close as possible, check to see if FLV Graham Cracker and Pastry Zest even existed when Graham Mother came out.
- Armenia/Apricot (FA) @ 3.5%
- Cardamom (FA) @ 0.5%
- Cream Fresh (FA) @ 1.5%
- Fuji Apple (FA) @ 0.5%
- Marshmallow (FA) @ 1%
- Peach/Juicy (TPA) @ 1.5%
My first attempt at a recipe.
(Poorly done) notes:
-
Apricot: This is meant to be the top note, but on its own the apricot flavour doesn't really shine...
-
Peach (juicy): ...and this is where the peach comes in to round off the apricot profile.
-
Fuji: Adds a bit more bite and flavour to the combination of apricot and peach.
-
Cream fresh: One of the few creams I like (not that I've tried very many), this adds some weight and sweetness to the recipe without imparting too much of its own tangential flavour. I tried VBIC initially, but man that stuff is strong. Even at a really low percentage it's basically all I can taste.
-
Marshmallow: Mostly for added sweetness, to help bolster the cream, and also because I like the taste.
-
Cardamom: The real star! I love cardamom, but this is pretty much the highest I could go without making it "The Cardamom Show, with maybe some other stuff somewhere. Maybe." I think the combination of apricot and cardamom works really well. Also, cardamom, because I feel like I haven't typed cardamom enough.
Would absolutely love some feedback and suggestions on how to improve this. Maybe let it steep for a day or two.
Edit: formatting and typo. cardamom.
Tobacco with rich caramel and somehow creamy-buttery taste.easy all day vape for those who like this tobacco profile.needs 20 days steeping for the flavors to come in place.

Steep a week at least
Tastes the way some Turkish blending tobacco smells. It actually tastes pretty damn close to the NET I made with said Turkish Tobacco. It’s slightly sweet and spiced tobacco leaf. I tried to keep the percentage pretty low since the original idea was for it to be something like a stone, so it can easily be built on top of. I actually enjoy it a whole lot just by itself, so I haven’t even played around with adding stuff to it.
Winter is here! A time that is cherished by many.
Quintessential flavors to the season are peppermint and nutmeg, but you don't often see them paired together. In my venture exploring this combination, it is pleasant, satisfying, and a little odd!
Ingredient|%| :--|:--| LB White Chocolate Peppermint|5%| FLV Peppermint|0.25%| FLV Eggnog|1.5%| CAP Vanilla Custard|2%| TFA Graham Cracker Clear|1.5%|
The star of the show here is LB White Chocolate Peppermint -- this flavor is just wonderful and so easy to work with. It's a delicious smooth and creamy white chocolate with a very subtle and sweet peppermint. While the peppermint is nice it wasn't quite as forward as I wanted it to be, hence the addition of FLV Peppermint. It's a very strong, forward, thin peppermint, and is quite cool.
When you think nutmeg, you think eggnog (well, at least I do!). FLV Eggnog captures the essence of nutmeg very well while giving it a nice creamy base so it's not too dry. This is almost good enough by itself, but the addition of FLV Peppermint cuts through a lot of the creamy body you'd get from FLV Eggnog, so a little extra eggy boost from CAP Vanilla Custard for unctuous warmth does wonders here.
TFA Graham Cracker Clear is here for a little bit of dark sweetness and to play off some of the vanilla notes already in there, as well as giving the recipe some texture to keep your palate entertained.
All Inawera
Flavor | % ---|--- Shisha Strawberry | 2.75 Shisha Vanilla | 1 Shisha Orange | 0.25 Custard | 1.75 Dragonfruit | 0.5 Cherimoya | 0.5
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_heroin
I've been working an a 1:1 clone of "Milk of the Poppy" by Blue Dot Vapors for months and still haven't nailed it down. This doesn't have any ingredients in common with that. Instead, it's a complete reimagining of the same profile as an all-Inawera recipe instead of what I very strongly suspect is an all-Capella concoction. It's a sweet vanilla custard topped with sweet strawberry, dragonfruit flavor that comes in second to the strawberry but isn't just a subtle amount, and a lil hint of sweet citrus. So all of these ingredients speak for themselves except the Cherimoya, which is used to tie the fruits and custard together.
The trouble with trying to clone Milk of the Poppy is that each version needs to steep for a month before testing. This remix, however, only needs to rest overnight. Also unlike actual Blue Dot Milk of the Poppy and my way- to slightly-off clone attempts, I think I might be addicted to it.
If you don't have INW Shisha Orange, don't buy it just for this. Instead, try an equal amount of FA, FW, or FLV Blood Orange, CAP Sweet Tangerine, TFA Orange Cream, FE Sweet Orange (my favorite), or any other tangerine or orange flavor you happen to have on hand. Anything to give it just slightest hint of orange.
Polish heroin
"Polish" heroin (also kompot and compote in drug culture slang) is a crude preparation of heroin made from poppy straw. It is an addictive opiate, used recreationally as a psychoactive drug. Poppy straw, like opium, is harvested from the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum). Polish heroin was used mainly in Central and Eastern Europe prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the end of communist control of the countries of the Warsaw Pact or Eastern Bloc.

This looks amazing, mixing it up with regular INW Orange @0.25%.
Don't you have strawberry taster issues, though? I'm not sure you'll be able to get the strawberry from it like you can with Tootsee Roll.
I was debating on using your Strawberry Trinity, but gave it a 2nd thought. I can taste INW Strawberry Shisha, but it usually taste grassy unless it's with A-something tangy, like lemon, or B-Hazelnut/darker creams. Maybe with the other citrus in here, it'll take away that grassy note. That's what I'm hoping for, anyways.
I have a recipe that I need help developing it was a clone called ambrosia.
Cap cinnamon danish swirl 12%
Tfa vanilla cupcake 2%
I'm definitely thinking of dropping the CDS down to 10% or less. I also want to maybe add 1% tfa vanilla bean ice cream. Any thoughts to this? It's delicious as is just trying to improve. Thanks guys.
I tweaked /u/mlNikon In a Godda Da Vida and came up with an almost spot on remix of Mt. Baker Vapor's Hawk Sauce.
Papaya (FA) .75%
Pomegranate (FA) 1.5%
Sweet Tangerine (CAP) 2%
WS-23 .6%
Try it and let me know what you think.
Thinking back on this, and having it from MBV, these ingredients dont match anything to what is in Hawk Sauce, minus the WS-23
"A tangled dance of blackberry, raspberry and sweet and sour gummi with a nice menthol finish." < From MBV website
They can describe it any way they want, but the taste is almost spot on.
Wondering when the best of the year sticky is going to be posted? I have been vaping apple buttah from last years contest all year. I'm also about to order up flavors, u/kt00na you are at the top of the mod list lol.
A little late this month, but here goes:
I've been forcing myself to get creative by not buying new flavors and working with what I have.
3.5% TPA Western
1.5% INW AM4A
1% FW Caramel Candy
I really like this recipe a lot. Leather, tobacco, hints of vanilla, and candy slightly creamy caramel.
3.5% Western allows it to be on at the forefront but not entirely takeover the recipe. I keep AM4A at 1.5% (up from 1%) because it is strong and starts to get pungent higher than that. I've been leaning on FW CC more than FA Caramel lately as I like the candy-like qualities and overall strength and body more. I hope you guys like it.
Honey Mango Ice Cream
Nice sweet creamy mango.
Ice cream base from SadPandaVape's Evening Brew
White peach for enhancing Mango, adds depth
Pretty successful imo
Honey (Fa) 0.15%
Marshmallow (Tfa) 3%
Sweet Mango (Cap) 4%
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (Tfa) 5%
White Peach (Fa) 1.5%
Super Sweet (Cap) 0.4%
Steep time: 10 days Recipe on ELR
Recently perfected (in my opinion) a Peach Smoothie Flavor:
Juicy Peach (TFA) 4%
Juicy Orange (CAP) 4%
Mango (TFA) 3%
Honey Dew (TFA) 2%
Sweet Tangerine (CAP) 2%
Apricot (TFA) 3%
Initially has a juicy hit of peach and orange, with an earthy exhale of apricot. Recipe works fine as a Measure, shake-and-vape, but really shines after about a day or two of steeping.
looks really good but i genuinely hate Honeydew. do think removing it will heavily affect the profile?
Not at all- Honeydew was the most recent thing added, just because I felt it was missing something to ground it a bit. Drop the Honeydew, and up the Mango and Tangerine, just because I like to mix just shy of the 20% mark without going over. I found that mixing the Peach at 5%, it tends to overpower the others, so it's the only one that's really important not to change.
What is your reasoning behind a smoothie without any creams or yoghurts to pad it out? You said you added honeydew because it was missing something, could it be that?
Personally I haven't met a cream I've enjoyed. I tried adding TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, and a Greek Yogurt both at around 4%, and neither of them really tasted right to me.
Peanut Butter Cream Pie
"During the warm months, it's nice to have a fluffy, no-bake dessert that's a snap to make. Packed with peanut flavor, this pie gets gobbled up even after a big meal!"
"A cream pie is a type of pie or cake filled with a rich custard or pudding that is made from milk, cream, flour, and eggs. It can come in many forms, including vanilla, lemon, lime, peanut butter, banana, coconut, and chocolate. A constant feature of all cream pies is the whipped cream topping." but keep in mind, this recipe has a cream cheese base.
Found this Peanut butter cream pie recipe, very light mousse peanut butter cream with small amount of ingredients but tasted fantastic. Wanted to make the recipe and see if anyone wanted to assist in turning this into a vape recipe.

A small disclaimer: I have a somewhat botched sense of smell (psychosomatic, tested and proved) so take my flavour notes with a grain of salt. I smell most of the edible smells but there still can be something I've missed.
A very simple recipe but I like it.
Earl Grey Fantasy
Red Oak (TPA) 9 drops per 10 ml
Earl Grey (TPA) 9 drops per 10 ml
Peppermint (TPA) 3 drops per 10 ml
I steep everything for at least a week (just make a lot in advance really) so I don't know if you can vape it earlier. You can try...
Overall it's a moderately sweet citrusy vape with heavier woody & alcoholic tone from the Red Oak, and Peppermint gives it fresh and somewhat spicy notes. A colleague said it also had conifer notes, which I didn't notice before that but would like to expand on.
One of my recent experiments came out quite nicely and I wanted to share. It is supposed to be a strawberry jam on toast and I am proud to say, it's quite tasty.

Last month I got a few chocolates, mixed a few version. Chocolate fudge brownie, not my thing. I have the new version of inw chocolate, haven't used it yet, same with flavorah chocolate, glad I read coops recipe, I would have over shot it. Remindes me to mix coops kiwi contraption. I bought all the ingredients for it last month. I ordered to many flavors, I started spazing on what to mix but I do have a lot mixed up, steeping. Question to coop and all, do you change your %s depending on a dripper or rta? I don't drip, I know the flavors better but I'm too lazy. I use kayfun 5 minis. Just wonder if you raise %s for tanks.
