My husband doesn’t smoke anymore, but once in a while he’ll steal my vape for a bit. He, like me, misses that morning coffee smoke the most (even 5 years later), and requested a flavor that brings that to mind. This is what I’ve ended up on, after starting it as a 1-2-3. Tips/suggestions are welcome!

Currently vaping it on a sub-ohm pen with 0 nic.

Coffee Espresso Dark- FA- 1.5%

FESTIVUS FOR THE REST OF US

  • FLV Cinnamon Crunch 2%

  • FLV Milk and Honey 1%

  • FLV Cream 1%

  • FLV Vanilla Bean 0.5%

  • FLV Pound Cake 1%

  • FLV Pumpkin Spice 0.6%

  • FLV Smoked Butterscotch 1.5%

  • Total 9.6%

So I used Cinnamon Crunch here because I knew I would be picking up some more cinnamon off the Pumpkin Spice and it seemed like the logical way to keep the cinnamon in check without it getting too pervasive in the mix. Rest of the mix is pretty much "no brainer" easy choice type of a vibe. Anyways gotta go get the Festivus Pole out of storage.

This looks fantastic! I need to grab the Cinnamon Crunch and Vanilla Bean before I can mix it up. Does this need to steep? Looking forward to trying it asap. Cheers!

Was wondering if anyone got that smoked butterscotch lol, it sounds so good but it's so expensive 😱

2 points
 
by [deleted]almost 6 years ago

Actually not that bad of price considering it does the job at 1%-1.5% compared to using FW Butterscotch Ripple at 3%-4% for example. Obviously those flavors aren't interchangeable. Was free to me though for winning a contest on here a little while back. Sent me like 70 30 ml bottles of flavors. Anyhoo, the 30 ml of Alpine Strawberry they sent is the expensive one lol.

Edit: You are right. It does taste good.

The "Tired of Everything Fruity / Custard / On Ice/ I Just Want a Damn Cigarette" Juice

I'm no expert when it comes to mixing my own by any means, but I've found my perfect ADV.

I was tired of fruity / custard / pecan pie strawberry licorice butterscotch biscuit on ice (:P) so I wanted to make my own tobacco flavored vape. I tried various commercial tobacco flavors but nothing quite hit home until I mixed this...

FLV - Red Burley 2%

FLV - Kentucky Blend 1%

I usually mix at 50/50 for added throat hit. I simply cannot get enough of this..been vaping it daily for almost 3 months now and it never gets old to me. It's a mild smokey / nutty / mapleish flavor that I love. I'm curious what others think. It's very simple I know but give it a try. Happy mixing!

Edit: Oh and a side note...if you're a coffee drinker this is amazing in the mornings.

by calmerpoleecealmost 6 years ago

I picked up the red Burley on yours and others advice and from my early tests I think I'm gonna like it. Thanks

by HornyHindualmost 6 years ago

This is the famous Cardinal minus the Holy Grail RY4 and higher % of red burley/kentucky. I've tried both, prefer with ry4 for more complexity for an ADV... if you haven't tried it: https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/24962#cardinal_by_fear

imo can swap Holy RY4 w/ TPA RY4 since they reformulated it and I actually prefer TPAs anywho.

by redlxnover 5 years ago

I have tpa double ry4. I really wanna try cardinal and this recipe. Did you just use the same percentages as the holy?

2 points
 
by HornyHinduover 5 years ago

just saw this, but yeah I do. I also add a bit of FA Caramel @ .5% just cuz I like it. You mayve seen but was a post about making a clone of it and some said it's actually likely half tpa's RY4D and either half DIYFS' cafe neop or 25% that and 25% holy vanilla.

I'm just reposting this verbatim from another post about what I'm vaping and I'm too lazy to retype it all.

So this is my take on the King's Crest flavor "Don Juan" which to this day remains my unicorn flavor. This is not strictly a clone but more of a taste adjacent mix in that hits most of the key notes in the original that made it my all time flavorite (You're welcome, I'll be here all night folks) vape without actually being the original. I am testing out some RY4 at the suggestion of another mixer in one of the clone threads and I'll probably share that if it works out.

This is a rich and savory butter pecan flavored vape with vanilla and some sweetener to lighten it up a little bit. This particular recipe was designed to be a shake-and-vape because I have very little impulse control but if you go that route be very thorough such as using a shaker or mixer of some kind.

I am always open to feedback so please let me know what you think if you try this.

You may not need to use it, I got a really chemically taste from too much FW Butter Pecan so I use this to pad it out.

I may sub a bit of (Capella) Silverline butter pecan V2, since I do have it.

by UnappreciatedRobotalmost 6 years agoI have no idea what I'm doing

Wow, that looks like a lot of FW Butterscotch Ripple!

Also, posting how much in ml you use doesn’t help since we don’t know if you’re mixing 10ml or 5,000ml. %s alone are always best :)

In a similar vein, I happened to accidentaly stumble into making this, reminding me of something in the Don Juan (which I hate, finding on off-putting strange note, but which has some cocoa btw). Presently testing it on Don Juan addicts, will see now it goes. Feedback appreciated!

Nothing complicated, but I’m really happy with this Simple Strawberries & Cream. Others have probably mixed up the exact same recipe or something close, but I didn’t intentionally steal it or read any strawberry and cream recipes before mixing it. I tried the Vanilla at 1%, but it was a little too strong:

INW Shisha Strawberry 3%

TPA Strawberry Ripe 5%

INW Shisha Vanilla 0.5%

FLV Cream 1%

TFA Whipped Cream 2%

CAP Super Sweet 0.5%

Looks good, I'm going to mix this up and give it a go as I really enjoy the SnC profile and have all the ingredients. What kind of steep time do you have on this?

Its funny because before DIY I did not think I enjoyed this profile as most were bland to me. Turns out companies were just using strawberries I couldnt taste all that well.

Give this a shot if you have the ingredients, it seems like it would run close flavor wise to what you made. Its a play on Mustard Milk that I've been mixing for 3 months or so. With the high VBIC content you can shake n vape but it gets really good after 3 days.

Mustard Twist v1

INW Shisha Strawberry 3%

TPA Strawberry 4%

TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 6%

TPA Whipped Cream 2%

CAP Super Sweet 0.25%

I like it at 75/25 but its up on ELR if you want to tweak it to your liking.

by syrik420almost 6 years ago

I just used it as a shake and vape while testing. Giving the finished recipe a 4 day steep though for that FLV Cream. How do you like the TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream? I’m ordering some on my next flavor order. Also, is the mustard twist like a legitimate mustard flavor?

2 points
 
by kontraventionalmost 6 years ago

Nice. Yeah I saw the FLV cream and figured there was some steep involved. 4 days sounds good, cant wait to try it.

> How do you like the TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream? I’m ordering some on my next flavor order.

Its one of my favorites, really versitile IMO, you can just kinda splash it and make it work. It can overpower though so if youre using it as an accent I would keep it under 2% for sure. 2 caveats though- some people get a black pepper taste from it, presumably from the 'bean' accent so only grab a 10ml incase you're a pepper taster. Second is it contains Acetyl Propionyl (the 'ap' in DAAP that you hear in this sub) so make your own judgement on using it.

> Also, is the mustard twist like a legitimate mustard flavor?

Fuck no lol. Its a play on an old staple recipe "Mustard Milk" by fizz mustard (forgot how they format their name) which is a straight up strawberry and (ice) cream

Mustard Milk

TPA Strawberry 6%

TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 8%

I tried it, liked it, and made my own version hence "Mustard Twist" (had to give some credit for the inspiration)

Stepped on Smoothie

TFA Juicy Peach @ 3%

INW Shisha Strawberry @ 2%

TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream @ 3.25%

FLV Cream @ 1.5%

CAP Super Sweet @ 0.25%

75/25 vg/pg, 2 week steep

So this began as a peach/strawberry ice cream recipe with CAP sweet strawberry a couple weeks ago and turned out a bit different. I like the taste of TFA juicy peach but was getting a bit of that legendary throat hit some talk about so I decided to play around with the idea of force muting to see if it could be tamed.

Wanted to smooth it out, so lets try a smoothie recipe. I decided to double up on the creams and went high with FLV cream while dropping the VBIC a bit to get a smooth and creamy base. I kept the peach where it was because the flavor was coming through well. Switched up to shisha strawberry to add a little more roundness and to try and take off some of the bite from the peach in combination with the high amount of FLV cream. About 7 days in it was tasting similar to peaches and cream in a gummy ring form, after 2 weeks the creams fully meshed and I got what I was going for, a peach and strawberry smoothie. Not to say if you have an extreme aversion to juicy peach it cures it but all in all I was pleased.

I've been trying to clone King Kong by Majestic for a long time, and this revision is the closest I've gotten so far. Off the shake, it almost tastes identical to me, but I'll wait and see how it develops after a steep.

6.5% LB Vanilla Ice Cream

3% LA Banana Cream

1% TFA Marshmallow

1% TFA Vanilla Swirl

The description on the Majestic website States, "This decadent banana creme brulee is so good, you’ll find yourself prepared to scale the walls of the nearest skyscraper for just one taste!"

Hopefully someone else can give tips/insight on improvements or at the very least enjoy the recipe.

RY4ME

Rich and silky smooth RY4 custard reminiscent of a Caramel Treat (Cooked caramelized condensed milk)

Great right off the shake and improves even more with time. Steep this juice on the coils in between puffs XD

FA Custard Premium 2.00%

INW Shisha Vanilla 1.00%

INW RY4 0.50%

DIYFS Holy Ry4 4.50%

MB Melty Caramel 1.00%

FA Custard Premium

Smooth and full bodied custard with a light non-descript vanilla tone

DIYFS Holy RY4 + INW RY4

I am cheating unashamedly using Holy RY4. but it has one of the smoothest caramel tones out there, it has only a hint of tobacco and so I bumped it up with some INW RY4. INW Ry4 is very tobacco forward but has very little texture (bakery, AP, earthiness) making it perfect to compliment the Holy Ry4 and still allow for a silky smooth texture.

INW Shisha Vanilla

I chose this vanilla because is it one of the easiest vanillas in terms of smoothness and it soft enough to allow us to keep the overall profile a soft as a baby's bottom while just adding a bit of depth to the FA custard.

MB Melty Caramel

Melty Caramel is one of my favourites, I used it here specifically as it lends the dark tone to the custard to push into that caramel treat territory. I used it low enough to still allow the custard and tobacco to shine but just high enough here to lend the deep dark tones.

I hope you enjoy!

Honeydew Milk Tea w/ Boba

The Milk!

This is the base I've been using lately. It works wonderfully.

3% TFA Vanilla Swirl

1.25% FA Vienna Cream

1.75% OOO Cream (Milky Undertones)

The Honeydew!

Easy combo, with the honeydew a bit higher to stand up to the creams and the cantaloupe a bit lower for a nice melony accent.

1.75% JF Honeydew Melon

0.75% FLV Cantaloupe

The Boba!

After a nice 2 week steep the rice turns into a starchy accent (boba pearls).

2.5% FE Sweet Rice

The green tea!

This matcha like tea pairs wonderfully with the melons and milk.

1% FLV Eisai Tea

That's it!

Been really enjoying this one.

Wild Red Melon

Flavor | Company | %
---|---|----
Wild Melon | FLV | 3%
Dragonfruit | FA | 0.5% Cactus | INW | 0.5% Sweetener | TFA | 1%

70/30 vg/pg. There's a lot of very good and subtle things happening with this flavor. It's good shake and vape but the throat hits chills out after day 2 or 3. The dragonfruit can be subbed with a more prominent strawberry or raspberry flavor at 1%, but the dragonfruit brings something to the table here at 0.5-1% that the others don't.

https://e-liquid-recipes.com/recipe/3285292/Serendipity%20V2%20Custard%20%28by%20BananaSlamma%29

Found this recipe, and adapted it to suit my own tastes; props to "BananaSlamma" for coming up with it. Whoever that is has come up with a masterpiece imo. I absolutely love it, and it has become my adv.

Figured I'd post this as a sweet christmas treat for everyone (though it has nothing to do with christmas inherently.... it's just delicious imo)

If anyone makes their own adjustments or additions/subtractions, feel free to reply letting me know what they are. I'm always interested/curious as to what others like to do if they choose to put their own twist on things.

WARNING; contains things that may not be healthy. Please read the warning contained on the recipe page before mixing this up, and make an informed decision on whether you want to try it with that in mind.

Edit; this is the mix i use for MTL. If you to DL, make sure to adjust the nicotine level by using the "adapt recipe" option after clicking on the wrench icon in the top right corner.
