Tropical green tea recipe?

submitted about 7 years ago by ZephyrV_01

I'm getting into mixing my own vape juices and was wondering if anyone would have any suggestions for flavorings and strengths for a tropical green tea juice. Thinking like honey, lemon, green tea, maybe other citrus? Edit: I like a 35pg/65vg mix if that matters

Fresh03 loves combining FLV Green Tea 1.5% and FLV Eisai Tea .5%, a 3:1 ratio if you change percentages at all. The Lemon Tea is really good as well, I'd start at 1% but depends on what role you want it to play in your profile (has been used .5-2.5% in recipes). Couple other flavors to try with a tropical tea would be:

FLV Lemon Grass (very potent start at .15%) FLV Soursop (.5-1%) FLV Yakima Hops with the citrus it provides (1-2%)

I don't have experience with tea concentrates, but INW has good lemon flavors such as lemon mix. If you wanted to go harder on the tropical part of the green tea you could throw in a tropical fruit like TFA jackfruit/dragonfruit or a papaya mango or something along those lines. FW blood orange is a real nice orange flavor especially paired with CAP sweet tangerine.

FA Blood Orange has a very similar profile to FW but doesn’t give a weird plastic taste on back end.

Hmm, I'll have to eventually check that out, but I found that there is little to no off taste when mixed with other oranges such as CAP sweet tangerien

I think adding some green apple and mint, green grapes or pineapple to green tea flavors would be nice. There’s a tea company from Japan that makes flavored oolong teas in these flavors and I love them. I just received some flavorings so I will post after some tinkering.

How about mango and hibiscus green tea? Something like:

FLV Eisai Tea 1.5% FLV Mango 1.25% CAP Hibiscus 1.5%

You may like a FLV Pink Guava (@.25% or so) and maybe INW Pineapple with INW Lemon Mix... the green tea is the challenging part. Also, .25% FA Marzipan to give a bit of fruity sweetness.

Although I don't have any experience with DIY my best friend mixes his juices and I've seen him do the shit and he walks me through it and explains stuff. So after that short bio, I would say like 5% Green Tea, 3%Lemon or Peach and 2%of either menthol or honey. I personally would go with menthol as it is summer and a cool green tea ejuice would be pretty nice

Please don’t post here with advice, especially shitty advice, if you don’t have any experience.

I never even thought of using a menthol to make it refreshing or cooling. Thanks!

Wouldn’t recommend using menthol for that. WS-23 or even Koolada are cooling agents that don’t impart any flavor like menthol does. Mentholated tropical tea sounds gross.

That is a good point. Sorry I'm still kinda new to this

While I can appreciate your motivation to be helpful the percentages you’re offering up aren’t useful without knowing which brand of flavors you’re referring to.

As far as I am aware there isn’t a honey flavor on the market that would be good at 2% and some of them used that high would almost be toxic.
