DIY Recipes

[Sylvie]

I got all 15ml bottles incase I need to get a diy trade for other supplies..
two of them are definitely on the key lime green side and two of them are probably more on the golden yellow side but you can see they have a green tint to them as well..

They still smell good lol and I mixed a few drops of all of them together and it didn't taste bad, didn't have a strong flavor to them though.. Maybe they got spoiled or something.. I don't know, I'll wait till nightsong gets home to check her flavors for me if she doesn't mind

 

[Sylvie]

Better contact Linda about it. Even large sizes aren't green at all. Which vanillas did you get?

oops posted before seeing your answer.. I got van custard, the vanilla bean, french vanilla and bavarian cream... the first two being the greenest..

I made a small batch with all of them in it, if I don't get sick I won't care since was cheap, just wont do any DIY trading with it..

I have Bavarian Cream and French Van.. and I just got it a few days ago. They're a golden greenish color for me. Seemed.. normal to me I can see a bit of green now that it's mentioned but... I dunno.. The color seems to match the smell for me?

Also.. I think I've managed an AC-esque juice. woo!

 

[Jynn]

My vanilla bean and vanilla custard are a clear yellow, maybe someone could see this color as being greenish tho...

My french vanilla is golden, no way in my mind anyone could call it green.

I feel I am sooooo close to duplicating JC Mercado right now. I think I just need some clove and I'll maybe have it. Got some on the way.......

 

[what the hell]

I just got the vanilla custard the other day and it does have a slightly golden greenish cast. Butter flavor is about the same color.

I checked mine and I would say they are a clear yellow, not seeing any greenish hue to it, I've had them for almost 2 weeks, maybe it's a different batch? I would probably call Linda just to be sure!

 

[Sylvie]

thanks everyone for info.. I'll just use them as they are since they smell like they should I think and they didn't really taste bad I suppose.. plus I already started using them and refuse to give them up for an exchange now that I am having fun mixing lol

Anyone know how to make a plain milk shake base??

 

[Nikhil]

I still think you should talk to Linda about it just to make sure it isn't a sign of a problem or spoilage. She's a nice lady and it's better to be on the safe side. I don't think you could exchange them anyway, since they are food grade, but if there is a serious problem she would probably replace them.

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (and/or any creamy flavor) + Malted Milk works pretty well for milkshake type base.

yeah you are right, better to be safe, so I just finish doing so
THank you for the milkshake flavors, figured malted milk but wasn't sure on which vanilla or which would be the main part of the milkshake base...still learning

I do NOT know where my brains are lately!! I hmm actually copied and pasted it to try it when I saw it and apparantely thy brain forgot lol thanks for the reminder lol

Okay Linda said flavors do not spoil.
They lose flavor if left opened.
They expire after 2 years and all current flavors are less than 2 months old.
Some flavors, due to temp changes, may not smell like should but, will taste like should (like honey)
Some of her current vanillas on stock do have a very very slight green tint to them, nothing to worry about.
She likes for us to 'call' her up when we have questions

SHE is a very funny lady and gave me a chemistry lesson in flavors on the phone lol.. she says she plans on explaining things to us on her website one day.. I told her she should do it by videos cause she reminded me of bill nye the science guy cause of the way she was explaining things to me on phone, informative but in a funny way that makes you remember it

Thanks for advicing me to contact her, I did so by email and she ended up calling me and giving me the pleasure of talking to one heck of a lady

Dang Bahnzo......had I known you liked that stuff I have 4 little dropper bottles could have went with your package! Be oh be don't do clove. You duplicate the TN let me know! boB

Hehe, rats! While I didn't hate the TN Cured, I didn't really think it was great, but the Mercado.....I need to order some to "refresh" my tastebuds and see how close I'm getting. I know it's a good mix of strong clove and cinnamon. Added to my homemade pipe extract I think it'll be close. I'm vaping my extract with the cinnamon right now at 5v, and it's pretty good. A little clove and I might have it.

Also good: Jules has BBB, I have CCC now. Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake. 1 part LorAnne Cherry, 1 part PA Cheesecake, 1 part PA Chocolate. Let it sit overnight and it's pretty damn good. The cherry and the cheesecake really mix well...the chocolate is a little too weak, but it's there..almost as an aftertaste. I need a better chocolate tho.

Hey Bjo, I have several chocolates. What kind are you looking for? (I don't normally use chocolate, cuz I can't eat it, so I don't want to vape it )

Anything that has more flavor than PA's. But hang onto it, I might be making an order in a day or two and will pick up some Capella's Double Chocolate if I do; I hear it's good.

 

[leannebug]

okie doke, well, LMK if you change your mind. Missy sent me a couple that sound reall good, and I think I have one or two others

 

[Sylvie]

Yeah, it is! Gotta work on a recipe for Sylvie. I put cheesecake with it and put a little too much cheesecake in it and that's all I can taste. Gotta go back to the drawing board on a creamy vanilla bean recipe.

yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm that is all I can't think of to say
It is delicious and better than any vanilla flavored juice I've ever had and that is saying a lot since I love Ms. T's vanillas!! It's sweet, yet not too sweet.. It's creamy, yet not too creamy.. It's flavorful, yet not too overwhelmingly so..
it it, it is just PERFECT

The one with too much cheesecake, smelled and tasted good too btw.. haven't had time to vape it though cause can't put the creamy vanilla bean one down yet

THANK YOU SO MUCH BRANDI, I really do love it ♥♥♥♥♥
