Not that I relly WANT the coloring in my juice, but this one was weird. I am using Lorann Watermelon for these. I've used it in the past (1 dram bottle) on the same batch of unflavored with no issues. This time I was using from a 1 ounce bottle...again from the same batch of unflavored. When I mixed it, it had that bright pink color to it. Looked the same when I went to bed. Well, I woke up this morning to a bottle of peach colored juice. Still tasted the same though. Now tonight, even more color is gone. It actually looks identical to some unflavored 48MG that I have left.

Any thoughts?

This is not an uncommon occurrence when mixing with flavorings.

Flavorings add many more components to the mix than would be present without the flavoring, the potential interactions between the flavoring and the basic nicotine are likely in play.

If you want to prove this to yourself, just mix up the liquid and substitute plain PG for the nic/PG part of your mix... so that's it's identical to your mix but without any nicotine. Let it sit and observe.

That seems totally opposite to what occurs with mine.
Mine (im referring to apple and caramel loranns) generally get darker with time. The best analogy i can give is clean motor oil when freshly mixed, then degrading to a dark dark UPS brown after it's set for a while.

my Johnson Creek Vanilla does the same thing.
