    If it were a coca extract, it would have to be a home-made one, no? Those extracts are alcohol based, and according to Ben, there is no alcohol in Boba's. Meaning someone would have to buy/grow the leaves, and make the extract themselves. That, or, if they are using coca, perhaps from coca tea...

    I'd say the debate of what's the right ingredient, and what's not, shouldn't be stifled based on others' opinions. But I only ask that you have some objective proof before making grandiose claims. People come into this thread to help one another in an effort to re-create a juice that many of...

    Rikiel - your evidence is based on very loose speculation... you even contradict your evidence by saying that it can be nearly anything with nicotine in it. So what makes you so sure that it's coca leaves, and not tomatoes? You've been DIY'ing for how long now? How many bottles of Boba's have...

    Well, I'll applaud your determination, but without actually tasting it first, I really don't understand how you can be so confident as this being the answer.

    If we're still believing the clues given by Ben, then this isn't an option. Unless they extract with VG, as Ben has stated that there was no alcohol in the mix.

    It's quite obvious that he doesn't give a damn about putting anyone out of business. He wants to profit from it, plain and simple. It's not an issue of ethics, but greed. I'm calling his bluff anyways. One secret ingredient that defines the juice, doubt it. Even if he is right, and the...

    Regardless if they wanted to make money on it, or not. Coming in here, an area where we help one another by sharing our findings and experiences, and danging the carrot, so to speak, and then running off is just plain rude, and unnecessary. Really, he should have just kept it to himself.

    Nah, I'm pretty sure he meant this: The secret is paper towels. Ben, you clever shrew you.

    I don't get it... you firmly believe you know the 'secret ingredient' (that's to say if it's only one secret ingredient), and instead of posting what it is, you post this. You're what, testing the water? Seeing if you can benefit in some way? If it's truly an ethical dilemma, then why even post...

    I could probably buy the idea of an ingredient made by someone else that has nicotine in it... I imagine if whomever is making it, they're using a VG/Water-nicotine base to do so (only thing that makes sense to me). And it's not a NET, so it's synthetic? The more I type this, the less it makes...

    Okay, so you believe it to be an ingredient that has nicotine in it, but not an extract, which was my original assumption. And you think that someone is making it for him, correct? Thus the reason why we cannot access said ingredient? So, it's either: 1.) Ben is lying 2.) Ben's preference is...

    I noticed, lol. I just read your post, and didn't realize that the conversation continued through the next page :facepalm: I had mentioned, possibly even in this thread, that one of the ingredients probably had nicotine in it (as many have presumed as well). Well! Like so many before/after me...

    I'm inclined to believe that it's preference, Buffalo. But I can't help but to wonder why, if that is the case, he offers 0mg in every other flavor except his tobaccos. You would think, from a business point of view, that it would be optimal to offer said juices in 0mg. Not only to cater to...

    My Boba's clone

    None of his tobaccos are available without nicotine. That would mean that he feels that none of his tobaccos would taste right without nicotine, given that it was a preference factor. That, or, it's a very elaborate ploy to keep everyone guessing. Saying that he will not do his tobaccos without...

    I too have considered DIYFS as Ave's source for tobacco flavorings. I wanted to try the VG-based flavorings, but they've yet to add them on the site (as they told me they were going to do) without the whole 'mix and vape' kit. But even if it's true that Ave utilize VG-base tobacco flavorings...

    Are you debating for the right to be right? Or are you actually trying to find a solution to these clues given? The difference between our arguments is that I'm completely open to what it could be, where as you seem to say that it's 100% not a tobacco extract. I'm with you, and anyone else who...

    He also said that none of the tobacco juices can be made without nicotine. Aside of an extract, what else is there? Save preference, of course.

    They probably just bought a decent amount of the pre-made labels from a company, and want to use them up before using the new ones (as not to waste money, ya know?)
