    Default Possible flavoring?

    While thinking of a possible minty flavoring, I thought about my bottles of sugar free syrups that I use to flavor my Starbucks at home. Could this be used or is there something in the ingredients that would make it not a good idea? Here's what's in it:
    Water
    Natural and Artificial Flavor
    Cellulose Gum
    Sucralose
    Citric Acid
    Sodium Benzoate

    I wouldn't use it. Probably gum up the atty badly. I make mine "menthol" dissolving pure Mentha Arvensis crystals in the juice. A little goes a long way. It has a low vapor temp, and is the real, pure "Menthol" flavor. It is CHEAP, too...1/2 a pound cost me just a few bucks, and that's a lifetime supply, trust me.

    Where do you get those from?

    Google or "ask" for "Mentha Arvensis crystals". I found a supplier that's in the pacific northwest. They also had USP, food grade, PG and USP vg...all told, with shipping, about $13.

    Thanks much! So what do you do with it, just drop a couple of the crystals into the e-liquid you want to flavor?

    Sheilalynn, just a pinch. Give it time to soak in and you will be happy. If you put too much in you will have nothing but a pile of goo.

    Start off small and you can always add more if needed.
