Grape Bubblegum...need assistance please

[rkayw]

Hi all,

For some reason, I can not get a decent tasting mix on this...so I am seeking help/ideas for a recipe. 2 main flavors and I can't get it right. What am I missing?

I need to make my daughter some e-juice to help her out. She wants Grape Bubblegum. (6mg 60pg/40vg)

Without buying anymore flavors atm....I have on hand Capella's Bubblegum, and Capella's Grape.

Anyone having any experience with these flavors...

What %'s would you mix the flavors at so that both flavors come thru nicely?

And what would you add as enhancers (if any)? (EM, vape Wiz, Koolada, etc.)

Please, and Thanks in advance.

ETA: It doesn't have to have the 2 Capella flavorings....It can be anything that will make a grape-bubblegum flavor. I have fruits and other flavors on hand.

If it were me I would try a 50/50 flavor mix since you want to taste them both as much. Try that and if it is not exactly as you want it you could add more grape or BG. I am not a fan of sweeteners so I would not use them but if you normally like EM and you think it needs to be sweeter after mixing add a few drops. That would be my plan anyway and I hope it helped you

If you had any Sour Flavor that would probably really make it pop IMO

I have TPA Sour, and also LA Tart & Sour.

Didn't think of adding sour. Thanks.

That stuff is great but the trick is not to use too much. I use it with many fruits and really like it. Now I want to try some Grape Bubblegum too!

It gives the fruits a candyish taste IMO so would be great with bubblegum.

I've read that Lorann Grape tastes just like Grape Bubbleyum. I have it but haven't tried it yet.

Peach pops most any fruit, I use that instead of sours now.

 

[rkayw]

I don't have LA Grape. (I don't think. lol) It could be buried in there somewhere.

The actual sour..if I vape something with it all day, the inside of my lip gets rough, not sure how to explain..when I rub my tongue over it, like when you've had too much salt???

 

[salemgold]

Yeah you probably have too much sour in it if thats happening. Just a few drops does the trick

 

[salemgold]

I have tried LA Grape and while it does taste like candy it does not taste like bubblegum to me. May be different for others though.

 

[meems]

Just a few drops does it..that was why I switched to peach as my pop.

 

[rkayw]

How much of the sours should I try?

I am making probably 3 or 5ml for her to try it. If she likes, I will make a 15 or 30ml bottle for her.

Now I want to try some Grape Bubblegum too!

Me too! Thinking back to grape Bubble Yum, I don't really remember an actual bubblegum taste. Grape, obviously...a little sour, yeah. Hmmm...

 

[salemgold]

I only use 3-5 drops per 30 ml of the sour flavor so maybe try 1% I would think. And you may not even need it once you just mix the 2 flavors together.

Soon after I started vaping I craved a pink bazooka joe bubble gum flavor for some odd reason lol

The only peach flavor that I like is FA White Peach and it tastes like a real peach not candy type. It would be worth a shot though so I am not a big fan of additives. I use the least amount of flavoring as possible in my mixes

 

[rkayw]

I have more peaches coming, stalking the mailman. All I have tonight is peaches & cream and I don't think that is what I need. Who knows though. Stranger things have happened with flavoring combo's so I've read. lol.

 

[salemgold]

That is very true. Try mixing some Jamiacan Rum with PA Apple. It is an awesome candy type flavor that tastes nothing like apple or rum. I use 2 parts rum to 1 part apple.

 

[salemgold]

And your peaches and cream may well work. debb posted a recipe for doublemint gum with vanilla custard in it and it is spot on
