I can only speak from my experience so not sure if this is universal. On a few occasions I wanted to make a vape a little sweeter by adding some sweetner to it. I'm talking about liquid that is already in the tank. I add a couple drops and shake. The flavor does become sweeter but also much drier. the following is a recipe that I use with ry4d that is not dry.

ry4 double 10%
carmel candy 5%
Bavarian cream 5%
vanilla swirl 1%
tabacco absolute 1 drop per 5ml

good luck

I've had that, if it's good but just dry, I simply add a couple of drops of water to what's in the tank. Too much sweet can do it, but so can simply the tannins in the flavors (especially with tobacco.) and more sweet can override that too. Just trial and error to see what that juice needs. If you like the flavor and sweet as is, I'd try water first.

I should clarify that dry taste. It's not dry like from PG/VG. It's more like astringent after taste. Can't actually taste it but stays on my tongue and mouth for a long time. Just like eating some leafy greens or un-riped green bananas. That's probably the closest description I can come up with. I still have some of that feeling remaining in my mouth and last I vaped it was about 20 hours ego.

^^ Yeal, I don't think they had all their ducks in a row in that article, but still food for thought. As far as remedies, I often drink a little buttermilk which I think is slightly alkaline and also aids digestion. But then again, I like it and probably a lot of folks don't.

Also, I've seen some posts that recommend a certain gum for vapors tongue, but I can't think of the name right at the moment. Dang old timers disease. :(
