As always, the purpose of this thread is to gather the community to explore a category of flavor and its many uses. And it's also to have FUN!
Post recipes containing this week's Flavor of the Week, as the star or in a supporting role, with or without development notes. Talk about other people's recipes that use it. Compare and contrast different manufacturers' versions of the FOTW. Ask for help using that flavor in general or to achieve something specific, offer advice, brainstorm ideas, consider substitutions, suggest pairings... really anything at all as long as it's on topic.

I actually like pineapple a lot irl, but never mixed it... What's the best pineapple juice flavor? (And any suggestions for all the rums needed to make Zombie juice?)
INW Pineapple is pineapple juice. It is thin and kind of watery but that helps with the beverage profile. Make sure you don’t accidentally get INW Raw Pineapple, it’s pineapple licorice.
VT Light Rum + FA Jamaica special (rum). Make sure you don’t get VT Rum or Golden Rum, only the Light one. The other one is like stale beer with a bit of bbq sauce.
I'm hoping the best pineapple is one I just received but haven't vaped yet. Aussie company called JuiceFactory - JFa Pineapple. It's not on ATF - none of them are. They make the best Apricot in the known world. In fact JFa Apricot is one of the best and truest concentrates I have ever tried. Top 5 all time.
My pineapple journey actually started with FW Pineapple Peach. Just terrible. Then I tried LA Pineapple - was so long ago and can't remember much, except it being equal parts gross, fake and candy. Then I went the usual route of CAP Golden Pineapple. Slightly weird taste and quite sweet. Then people raved about INW Pineapple so i got that. It's too watery and linear. Then I heard about MB Pineapple. At first I loved it, but I find it does not age well and turns quite rotten in mixes. Best vaped straight away - pretty realistic. VT Pineapple Juice is decent for adding to tropical mixes - dull and syrupy - tastes pretty much like canned pineapple juice.
Ah. So for what I want, looks like a blend of VT pinneapple juice, INW pineapple, and CAP hibiscus is probably the solution. Y Thanks.

There was supposed to be a "for" in that title. Some time FOR flavor of the week. I think I've had a stroke.
Do you smell toast? grin
White Tiger v3
- TFA Pineapple 3%
- CAP Golden Pineapple 3%
- FA Pear 2%
- FA Fresh Cream 1.75%
- FA Meringue 0.5%
- TFA Apricot 0.5%
- TFA Dragonfruit 0.3%
Optional:
-
small amount of Ethyl Maltol
-
FA Coconut 0.4% (can help boost cream)
Whipped pineapple drink. Apricot adds to the fruit profile nicely. Much more and it adds a ton of throat hit.
TFA Pineapple can create some 'whiteness' which will clear up. Doesn't precipitate at least!
Fresh cream for some smoothing. Pear for depth and juiciness. Dragonfruit can help, but v1 recipe didn't use it. (used EM instead)
V2 was done before I got CAP, which can be crazy harsh at higher%. Nice to boost the TFA tho! Which could be taken down to 2.5%
Had many compliments on the taste and the 'room smell' is quite pleasant 😁
Dang. I have it all except apricot. I wonder what else I can try to bring it all front and center.
Maybe honeydew?
I have CAP Golden and TPA ones and rarely use them but I had some success with subbing them into a kiwi pineapple punch (although kiwi sometimes makes me a little nauseous as others have experienced) and what I got pineapple for was to try and make fruit punch.
So far I haven’t found a good fruit punch mix that works. I started with sherpderp tropical breeze as my launching point but hit a wall. Perhaps I will build one around the actual Tahitian treat flavor I saw.
But I’m always looking for other uses for these. Perhaps a topping for an ice cream or just spicing up an existing recipe?
Absolutely use either one of them or both as an ice cream topping.
I can’t tell if we are still talking about vapes or are into food ha.
I swear the stuff they sell at the store is just synthetic flavored pineapple junk.
Battery Acid
8% TFA Pineapple
Pineapple candy dipped in battery acid. I don't think battery acid tastes pineappley by itself. Or maybe it does. I need a volunteer.
Probably going to get in trouble for being lazy...
​
You should try Raincoat but you're probably too lazy to mix it.

Delicious pineapple-guava smoothie.

Yesterday I got inspired by Wayne and remixed a little bit one of his Pineapple Mango Juices. Now it's been my main driver and haven't gotten tired of it yet! Delicious!
Liquid Frootz:
- CAP Sweet Mango 3.5%
- CAP Golden Pineapple 3%
- TFA Banana Cream 2%
- TFA Honeydew II 0.75%
- CAP Super Sweet 0.5%
- TFA Koolada 0.75%
You can go lower on the Koolada. I'm noticing that it's not a must, but in these hot summer days here in Portugal, it has been great!
Very juicy, fragrant and sweet all day vape for me.
Now to find the best lemonade for the summer, and I'm gucci :D
