A simple, fruity ADV recipe needed

I just tried adding some raspberry to 7Leaves tobacco flavor from FA. That is my favorite tobacco. The result is wonderful, but it needs a bit of sweetness. I don't like adding sweeteners, but perhaps Dragon's fruit will achieve the same result. I have tried it all by itself and it is just great.

Good luck. And don't get discouraged! It took me several months before I perfected my ADV but it was well worth the effort. I have literally saved thousands in juice costs over the years[emoji106]

I have just finished making the above 2 recipes. Thanks again for those.
Just out of interest, how long do you steep those particular recipes?
The NannerBerry's usually good as soon as it's made. You could give it a try and see what you think. If you don't taste much of the Banana Cream yet...just give it a shake every now and then while letting it sit for a few days. Then try it again. Everyone's sensitivity to different tastes varies, so you'll discover what yours is for the flavorings in that recipe.
Oh no , you mixed something that i came up with ? This is not good , please dump contents immediately .
Good luck hope you enjoy.
It never ends.
I wish I could remember who to credit, but for a few months I've been regularly knocking out an easy tropical-ish recipe...
Mango, Mandarin, CP Lime and Coconut.
I use all FlavorArt (thus the "Cold Pressed" Lime) so I just drip from the FA dripper bottles into my juice bottle and top off with pre-mixed PG/VG/Nic base (a lot of us do this).
It's an easy yet semi-complex flavor (no concerns about dairy etc. percentages or steeping) and can be adjusted or used as inspiration for other flavors you might prefer.
I just started DIY about a month ago (after deeming regs), and I'm still figuring it out. So far, I've found that low flavoring % seems to be working out for me.
However, I may have to try one or two of the recipes I've seen floating around. I haven't made any liquid over about 8% flavoring, so I might be missing out.
BOOM!

It really depends... which flavoring, what retail juices you've used and liked, personal preferences, dead palate (that one's mine
).Most retail juice is very strongly flavored. A lot of that may be serving the MTL market or a holdover from that... we blow through a lot more juice lung hitting.
Many (most?) DIYers agree that as we learn and experiment, we use less and less flavoring for the same satisfaction... or we're all cheap.
That said, different brands vary significantly... 8% of FlavorArt would take my head off.
By the way, I still buy the occasional modestly priced juice, because it's so tasty, but being so strongly flavored... it's not unusual that I'll cut it with something complimentary of my own making.
ETA: Flavoring is cheap, even more so for a retail company buying in bulk.
What surprises me is that there's no price differential for different nic levels.

Ok so far, I am loving the Nannerberry recipe, even after just a night of steeping. It's a great shake and vape.
The forest fruit mix is nice, but needs more steeping IMO. I am just pleased that I have made something vapable!

I'm happy that you both like it! Several of my friends tell me I better not ever quit making it for them! Hmmm, makes me think I need to come up with something, or some way, they can reciprocate for me (ie. 1 makes really good BBQ ribs, another makes a to-die-for blueberry cobbler, one's an auto mechanic, etc.).
And you're right Ben...it's definitely a good one for shake and vape. That's 1 of the reasons I like it, too. Pretty much everything I make is shake and vape. I don't really like waiting after I've made a new batch.
I've got some simple other recipes, too. Do you like a choc. mint flavor, as in the Andes little rectangular chocolate & green creme-de-menthe mint candy? Or how about Key Lime Pie?

I'll also confess to buying a couple of flavorings/blends from OSDIY Shop that dannyv45 and several other people have recommended. (I actually bought them originally to give some samples to a few people I'm helping learn how to DIY. Thought they'd be a good, simple way to mix something to learn on.) But, I made some for myself, too, and have been vaping 1 of them almost non-stop for 2 days!
They have some flavorings that are called One Shot Blends and others that are One Shot Flavors. I bought some of the Lucky Shot (Blend) and some of the Baked Cinnamon Roll (Flavor). Both are wonderful, in smell and in taste! And...all you do is add some of either one to your PG, VG, and Nic...and you're good to go! I used 10% for each one when I made a small batch of each. Then I decided to bump up the % for the Lucky Shot to 12%, and I like it better.
They now offer 1st Class Mail shipping for smaller orders, which saves a bunch of $$. So, if you want to try the Lucky Shot or the Baked Cinnamon Roll, or any of the ones dannyv45 really likes (ie. Strawberry Milk, Blue Raz Slushie, etc.)...it wouldn't cost you much to do it! I'm going to try the Olde Time Root Beer myself. Kimberly (one of the owners of OSDIY Shop) said it's great, and several others have said the same on here.

I am enjoying all this DIY malarkey.
A nice simple recipe I have enjoyed is the following;
Strawberry ripe (TFA) 10%
Vanilla Bean ice cream (TFA) 10%
A dead simple shake and vape which tastes good with a VG/PG of 80/20. Might mix some fresh cream in the next batch.

Excellent.
Even with TFA/TPA, I'd think those percentages are a touch on the high side.
The dairy will do well with a bit of aging/melding (steeping)... if you can, do a small bottle at 50-60% of that and let it sit for 3 weeks.
Then compare it to where your shake&vape preferences are by then.
The experiments only stop when you're not feeling an interest in them.
I'm amusing myself this week with Menthol... not a flavor I'm fond of. Yet.

WOW! Malarkey? That was a swift kick to the plums! Many of us that hail from the Late Great Church of DIY have traded in our very souls for your "malarkey!" (Well... maybe a spouse or two. And I have to keep the frozen pizzas under what used to be her side of the mattress because their freezer is full of my DIY supplies. And my golfing is down to only two times a week {still can't crack 100 dang it!}) Speak with reverence about our fair and sacred art!
Honestly though; thanks for sharing the recipe. But be cautious about the "next time I might add... " thoughts as they usually lead to the 12 flavor recipes that I have shamefully clogged my notebooks with.
