Hi everyone
This is my first post here, been reading a lot here.
i was trying a new mix that i made myself, it was quite good but ive been changing a lot of flavors trying to chase a really good lime pie berries.
so far i have this:
Fuji apple (FA) 3% Key lime pie (TFW) 6% Strawberry lemonade (TFW) 3% Sweet strawberry (CAP) 3%
Any suggestions would be appreciated
2%
(TPA)Cheesecake (graham Crust)
1%
1%
2.5%
1.5%
​
Forest Fruits to your liking for the "Berries"
​
My key lime recipe is Largo Milk
2 % (TPA) Bavarian Cream
1 % (FA) Cookie
1 % (CAP) Graham Cracker
3 % (TPA) Key Lime
0.5 % (FA) Lime Tahity Cold Pressed
2.5 % (TPA) Marshmallow
4 % (CAP) New York Cheesecake
1 % (TPA) Sweet Cream
1 % (TPA) Sweetener
2 % (CAP) Vanilla Custard
TPA Key Lime needs two things: a sweeter lime flavor and Sweetener. I'm currently reworking this recipe to use FA Florida Key Lime and INW Yes We Cheesecake, as those are superior flavors.
For your tweaks, I'd add FA Forest Fruit at 3 %, and INW Shisha Strawberry at 1%
its seems pretty interesting. anything i can sub for cookie and lime tahity? those the ones im missing
I never tried any of the recipes, but a pretty spot on Key Lime Pie recipe is available on ELR: http://e-liquid-recipes.com/recipe/102658/. I believe that throwing in FA Forest Fruits @ 2.5% might be a good idea to give it a hint of berries.
Another option is to adopt CAP Harvest Berry @ 2.0% from Lenola Cream Remix from ATF: https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/47426. This recipe is already a 'pie' in a way and CAP Harvest Berry certainly tastes good there.
Or you can combine the two and see how it tastes.
Good luck with this!
Consider Graham cracker clear and possibly tiny tiny amounts of Acetyl Pyrazine. AP would bring lime down and bring out bakery notes if lime is dominating your recipe too much. Meringue is probably necessary.
Someone suggested cream cheese and God I'm in love with lorann again but I'm unsure about that one here, but maybe make a few 10ml test batches and let us know how she go.
Edit: maybe loose the apple, substitute apple pie if you really want apple so it brings an authentic pie to the table as well.
didnt knew that about the AP. i might try both. thx
In my experience Graham cracker clear contributed a better bakery note than " _____ pie” flavors.
If you like pie, there's some jam fruit recipes that could easily be lightly paired on a Graham cracker base.
