What is that one recipe that blew your mind?
submitted almost 7 years ago by Hardheadedsoftskills

Hi everyone,

I'm sure some of you are in the same boat - when I find a great looking recipe that's rated to be a "prem" tasting original mix or clone, I'll often buy everything necessary, mix it up, and it just isn't as great as it was rated, and I end up having wasted some cash (although I still have the ingredients and I'm happy to play around with them).

Similar with one shots, out of the 3 I've tried, 2 have tasted like identifiable single concentrate mixes.

Could you guys please post the recipe(s) you've come across that exceeded your expectations and gave you that "thank gawd I found/made this" feeling?

I know there are a lot of general recipe threads, but so many are posted it makes it difficult to distinguish what the real keepers are.

Thanks a bunch, I appreciate any time taken to help my quest!

I'm not sure I can name just one, several recipes have turned my head inside out for one reason or another.

#10 MIND-BLOWING DIY E-JUICE RECIPES YOU WON'T BELIEVE (harnessing my inner buzzfeed "writer")

TEN: Passion Tea

So much flavor, such low %.

NINE: Cake Pop

Freakish accuracy.

EIGHT: Sadlad Toast Crunch

More Freakish accuracy!

SEVEN: Golden Oreo Pudding

The most Freakish accuracy in the history of freakish accuracies!

SIX: Leche De Coco

Shouldn't be possible.

FIVE: Abuela

The light on the road to Damascus, in vape form.

FOUR: Fiestas and Fiascos

What even is happening.

THREE: Terrorhawk

Mind blowing at a hallucinatory level.

TWO: Coop's Kiwi Bourbon

Evil genius.

And finally the NUMBER ONE MOST MIND BLOWING RECIPE OF ALL TIME

#GRACK JUICE

Click the link. Read the reviews. You can already feel your mind beginning to blow a little and you haven't even mixed it up yet.

Where is the slideshow and annoying ads? 5/10 will probably BuzzFeed again by accident.

I had some issues loading ATF, so here's the Grack Juice recipe for anyone wondering:

%	Vendor	Flavor	

2.25 (INW) Cactus 1 (TPA) Dragonfruit 4 (INW) Grape 0.75 (TPA) Koolada 10 Pg 1 (FA) Meringue 0.5 (INW) Raspberry 1.5 (CAP) Sweet Strawberry

edit: wow copy/pasting a full table from ATF preserves the formatting in reddit.... cool!

Nice, thank you. I think that's the only one I may have all the flavors for.

Grack juice is pretty much all I vape anymore. It’s so weird and good.

Yeah I got stuck on it for about two months and had to make a decision to stop and move on, ha ha, but before that I'd run out of grape so subbed in FA Kiwi and added TPA Orange Cream Bar @ 0.5% for what I called 'Krack', which was nearly as addictive, lol...

I bought orange cream bar by mistake. Never used it yet, as it doesn’t seem to be too popular

Same, along with Prickly Pear. Did a 110ml today for both but add ws-23.

Grack Juice blew me away. I wasn't expecting to taste what I tasted.

+1 for the Grack, no idea how to even describe it but I don't think I'll ever get bored of it.

Reading this list I'm now even more looking forward to mixing up leche de coco, kiwi bourbon and abuela which i bought the bits for yesterday

20% flavoring seems crazy high these days... Is this an old recipe?

Fizzmustards Nana Cream Clone. I need someone to tell me an all day vape I can replace this with. I have been vaping it 95% of the time since I first saw the recipe years ago. haha.

I've tried this one a couple times in different devices with short and long steep times. I just can't get into it. All I taste is weird cardboardy banana. I think I just don't like banana vapes.

This banana pudding is THE SHIT. The ONLY thing wrong with it is I blew through my LA Banana Cream by mixing this over and over. Gonna have to order a much larger bottle on my next ship.

Edit: on my last mix I subbed DIYFS Holy Vanilla for the Vanilla Swirl and it was EVEN MORE AMAZING.

Edit again: I also mixed 0.25 CAP Sugar Cookie and 0.25 JF Cookie on that last mix. Yup, AWESOME

I'd pick up some WF Bananna Puree to sub too which might make it even better for you.

Maybe not as easy as mind blowing, but you’ll find so many good recommendations here

I managed to clone Pacha Mama's Strawberry Guava Jackfruit pretty much perfectly. (Cant take all the credit, I found the base formula online and tweaked it) All my friends say its dead on.

Would you like that recipe?

(CAP) Sweet Strawberry - 2%

(CAP) Sweet Guava - 4%

(TFA) Strawberry - 1.5%

(TFA) Strawberry Ripe - 3%

(CAP) Marshmellow - 2%

(TFA) Jackfruit - 4%

I'd recommend letting it sit about 8 hours!

Best mindblowing for me are two:

​

Hash's prickly victory, which is basically 4% cap sweet guava and 1% inw cactus. It's mindblowing because it's pretty good for such a simple recipe.

​

The second is dinner lady lemon tart remix. I like it because I can taste the layers, the pie, the curd, the meringue, etc. It's very well balanced imo.

I was impressed with the Guava/Cactus mix but I feel like it changed how it felt throughout the 30mL bottle I mixed of it. I think I need to mix one and forget about it for a bit and try it again see how it tastes after it steeps some...

American Politics is a tobacco recipe that, while not technically mind blowing, made me exclaim out loud: "Holy Crap, this is really good!"

Oh man. I love CB but I think that's one of his weaker recipes dude! Three Cities & Casino Night are incredible.
