First things first:
Go and check those mint flavors on the safety tool first and remove all the flavors from that list, that contains anything bad. You don’t want to be inhaling that peppermint oil.

Welcome! Finally another mint lover like myself. I use WS-23 for the cold effect. Many brands make it. I highly recommend FW Menthol if you can get it. I use the TPA Wintergreen all the time to make This. It's not fruity but it is vanilla-y and I can vape it all day and have done so for months. FA POLAR BLAST is another good one. I am a bit lazy and I just add a drop to my tank whenever I want more cold sensation. Here is a good post that I keep pinned for Reference. If you have a strictly mint/menthol recipe I'd live to try it.
Hi. Care to tell us which country you live in? We may be able to point you in the right direction for vendors. I imagine CAP (Capella) and FA (FlavourArt) should also be available as they are very common. It would also be good to know what kind of mint you like (peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, natural, candy). Do you actually like menthol or are you adding it for the coldness? If that‘s not the case, WS-23 is iciness without flavor. You will also want a sweetener, either CAP Super Sweet or FW Sweetener. And FW Menthol is one of the best, better than TFA.
Menthol crystals as a base works well for me. Often thats it, nothing else. Grind up crystals, dissolve in your pg/vg base. Coils dont get gunked up as there is no sweetener. Aniseed, liquorice, absynthe go well with it.
this is the mix i make for my wife who is the same with only vaping mint/menthol this is the only thing she will vape

Hi and welcome. Just wanted to mention there are two weekly pinned threads that may be of use to you.
-Weekly new mixers thread (for all beginner questions).
-Suggest a recipe for my flavors thread (intended for what youve done here; list flavors and ask folks to suggest a recipe) 😊
If you are looking for straight menthol cold ignore all of those. I buy pure menthol crystals from Amazon, they are used for many things so you can usually just buy the menthol crystals from like a local store that sells herbal soap making supplies or such, I just use Amazon because it's easy and I live in the middle of nowhere. I then mix the crystals 50/50 with PG and melt them in the microwave 5 sec at a time. If you go for longer they can heat up really quickly, boiling menthol is not fun. You want to use PG because it suspends the menthol better. Menthol will recrystallize in VG, including at higher concentrations in your fluid. I then use that 50/50 menthol PG mix at 10% in my fluid. Be forewarned I am the only person I've met who likes that concentration. It will feel like you shoved an ice cube in the back of your throat so you might want to try lower concentrations first.
My Girlfriend is a fussy vapor and only likes Vgod mint menthol so did my best to clone it when flavor ban hit NY. I finally have a good easy mint menthol she really likes.Note- I use 15 mg salt nice for her Novo 2 and the end result is FA Spearmint- 6% FW menthol 2.5% DC sweet cream .05% Cap super sweet 1% tastes like orbit gum and she loves it. The mint i got from bull city like the rest of my concentrates.Its the mint with the rectangular white gum on label with mint leaves behind if.Not the winter white unless their the same but that's the one she likes best.I tried cappella sweet mint, LNW mint etc n she didn't like any of them but FA spearmint 60/40 15 mg salt for her Novo 2 and 1.0ohm mesh coil.I could even vape it all day and I'm not even a mint guy.But FW is the best menthol I find judging by many rated people who do like menthols 👍
