Jungle Juice is kind of magical
submitted over 5 years ago by TheFriendlyCactus1

So for starters, I always hated menthol cigarettes and haven't ever enjoyed any sort of cool or iced vape flavor.
Jungle Juice is a weird one, it's sort of a wet watermelon with a bunch of coolant, at least for me. My first experience was using it to replace jammy berry in a recipe, not knowing it was a coolant (always test your flavors)
At first i hated it but i kept going, i got used to it really quickly and it added just a really nice wetness and cooling that i really enjoyed, especially on a hot day.
I now use it in every drink recipe at 1%, most recently heat wave and tropical storm, super tasty and just cool enough to make it a nice vape on a hot day.
If you're like me and not really into a cool vape, i recommend giving it a shot as it starts to get hot out there.

I think I’m very sensitive to Melon flavors/offnotes, after vaping too much TFA Honeydew at too high of a percentage when I first starting vaping House juice. I had to get rid of my FLV Wild Melons too because of the gross offnotes I kept tasting.

Got some Jungle Juice in few weeks ago, tried to make a mix of it this morning at 3%, with my go to PUR Watermelon and some Papaya Punch. Couldn’t vape it at all, it’s a shame. Only post this to see if I’m the only one who has this problem? I know we have strawberry non tasters, and pepper tasters here. Anyone have any issues with melon flavors? I seem to vape candied watermelons no problem, PUR & MB Big Watermelon give me no issues at all.

Damn that's a bummer i love wild melon it tastes like melon hichews to me. I'm finding melons to be my favorite thing to vape

I feel you. When I started using pods i was crazy about the honeydew flavours from ice monster and Pachamama. Almost finished a 30ml bottle of each before I got sick of it. Subsequently got into diy and mixed up a simple TPA honeydew and VBIC. had to gag through it to not waste it. Recently mixed up a soursop cream recipe on ELR with 8% TPA honeydew that I dialled down to 6%. even months after anything honeydew, it's putting me off a bit.

8% TPA honeydew is an insane amount, it's pretty strong and I don't think I've ever really used it above 3%, starts to taste soapy past that.

I love melon flavors but since I’ve switched to pod/nic salts I totally get the gross offnotes you’re talking about. Coils that last weeks with mint flavors are goners after only a day or two because I only get that weird flavor.

I'm really sensitive to those as well. Not really off notes but like FLV Cantaloupe at 0.25% and that's all iui can taste in a mix.

Yup! I tried FLV Wild Melons at that percentage in a mix and was all I could taste.

Yes - I'm glad I'm not alone. I can't stand FLV Wild Melon. I mixed a couple of different recipes with it, and I got just a weird, gross, honeydew kind of off flavor that made me want to vomit. My husband enjoyed the juice I made with it, and I know lots of people like it, but I'm just like "ew, gross, no!" So I know it's my tastebuds and not the flavor. I enjoy the candy type watermelon flavors as well, no issues with those.

I've been vaping single flavour Jungle Juice as my ADV for literally years.

I started with MBV's Thug Sauce, then a local shop did their own version of it (MBV's version is simply 13% Jungle Juice and a touch of menthol/koolada/whatever coolant is "in" now).

Now I just straight DIY the stuff by the gallon.

I mean i like but not sure i feel that strongly about it ha. That's awesome though it's definitely a good one. Lots of thug sauce juice talk when i read about it, but I've never tried it

It's definitely not for everyone, I feel it's more of an acquired taste. Basically, it's what got me off the burning death tubes and I've just stuck with it ever since.

What's your thug juice recipe?

3 points
 
by NerdyNThickover 5 years ago

It's super simple: (FW) Jungle Juice @ 13%, (TFA) Koolada @ 1%.

The recipe I use is 60/40 VG/PG.

Share your impressions here too if you want to add some notes about it to the SFT database.

Would this be better suited over there? Tbh i haven't single flavor tested it yet but it's on the list, i just don't have an accurate description for it but wanted to inspire some new mixers like myself who aren't into a cool vape to try it out in some fruity beverage because it's amazing.
It does fit tho it certainly is not a name that describes the flavor, i bought it for a recipe without doing any research and then blindly subbed it in a different recipe. Was a pleasant surprise but certainly not what I'd recommend doing

I find it tastes like the foamy/spongy little banana candy sweets with menthol, rather nice tbh.

When I quit smoking using flavors I did it with Vanilla, Caramel, and Cream. My friend made fun of me because I was stuck on their RY4 double. I just made my own and so much better

This was my ADV back in 2013/2014. Mount baker vapor sold it as Thug Juice. I vaped hundreds of gallons of this stuff, at 13% Jungle Juice tastes identical. It's nothing great by any stretch of the imagination, by today's standard is pretty crappy. I still mix a 30ml of it from time to time. It takes me feel super nostalgic.
