Diluting PreMade E-Juices with grocery store extracts??

[Heartbskts]

Hello- I am new here. My name is Patti and I just recieved my pink 510's about
2 weeks ago
I order my juice from a supplier on here- in fact, I've ordered twice from him. I for some dumb reason thought that I liked the spearmint juice. Turns out, I was WAAAYY wrong lol! The juice is way too strong and I'm not a mint person either. I've tried cutting the juice (which is 100 VG) 30 mg nic with some french vanilla extract, vanilla extract, almond extract (all from the grocery store) and almond joy e-juice. Still toooo strong for me. Any more suggesstions because I ordered a big bottle of the spearmint.
I'm more into the caramel, chocolate, banana cream,cappucino (especially with atomic fireball), maybe a good vanilla. Please help!

Hi Patti- Welcome to ECF!

Be careful with the extracts from the grocery store. Some of them are oil based and can clog up your equipment.

Set the juice aside for a few weeks then try it again after your taste buds change. Spearmint is one of my favorites now but I did not like it when I first ordered it. It was way too strong for me.

You could try and mix it with some other juice that you already have. Maybe chocolate?

I would use a couple of drops with flavors that you like and see what you think of the new flavor. Are all of you juices 30mg? High nic will sometimes make a juice real strong.

If nothing else you can always sell/trade it in the classified section.

Oh, you will need 10 or 15 post before you are allowed to post in other sections.

You need to dilute it by adding more VG or PG. Since it is a VG base, I would cut it with PG, which will reduce the nic level and the flavor. I don't think that just adding more flavors will help much...

what you can do is buy some spearmint juice that is 0mg nic and mix the two. that would give you a 15 mg nic juice.

Yes- all of my flavors are the 15 mg nic content and I do cut them with either VG or PG that I've bought to try to get to around 18-24 mg because I believe this is saving a little money anyways, but am noticing that it is taking away from the juice flavors that I do love a little.
The extracts that I bought from the grocery store are all PG base, alcohol, or water- no oils. But the french vanilla and the almond both have caramel coloring, which I think I read somewhere may not be too healthy on the attys (which I do clean regularly).
Thank you for the advice- I think I will try to let it sit a lil while to see if maybe my taste buds DO change but I've pretty much been non-analog for almost 3 weeks Woot Woot!!!
I LOVE this forum and everyone in it! I've been "lurking" here for a few weeks learning new tips and tricks, watching videos, etc. I NEVER thought I could quit smoking and I'm so excstatic! I'm only 44 yrs old and have recently been diagnosed with emphysema too
Thank you all sooo much
PS- I can't wait to be able to post a pic and maybe make a kewl banner like the one I saw with the pink PV's
