I am on a bottle by bottle basis for vaping until I order my flavorless e liquid tomorrow. I vaped pure PG and liked the flavor so I think that will be all I vape for a whilee. Anyway, I bought a bottle of Apple Pie a la mode and it tastes nothing like that. I practically gag when I vape it, and my withdrawal of nicotine doesn't overpower it. There are probably no answers besides suck it up, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks



My answer is the opposite of "suck it up". Personally, I just wouldn't vape it. If WORSE comes to WORSE, and due to POOR PLANNING on your end, you are left with nothing but BAD e-liquid......you can always run to your local Wal-Greens/Gas station or whatever, and get those pre-filled cartos from blu, or whoever else. I'm pretty sure they are 510 threaded....so as long as you have a 510/ego battery, you can use them.

Or, if you have a local vape shop near you, or a headshop (they usually have vape supplies and e-liquids), you can just go there.


I choose not to allocate too much of my funds towards vaping, especially since part of the reason Im vaping is to save money...HOWEVER, I can NOT vape a flavor I don't enjoy. I have a few flavors right now that are in the back of my cabinet, that I know probably won't ever see the light of day.

All great answers, thanks. I tried mixing it with something called Uncle Junks Savannah which is peach and orange and added a little regular VG (no nicotine) and it is slightly better, but I really learned I do not like any flavor that is supposed to resemble baked goods. At least this is better than the strawberry waffles I bought before!

I wouldn't vape a juice that tastes awfull . . but, if it were the only juice I had, I would probably vape it. Just go as long as possible between vapes - after 4, 5, 6 hours your nic addiction will probably convince you that the taste isn't that bad.

I have noticed that certain beverages really cut down on the taste of juices - especially carbonated beverages. Maybe try vaping with ginger ale or something.

Early on in my vaping I use to try flavors....If I didnt like them, right into the trash... Why vape something you dont like... Im an Unflavored vapor now(3 1/2+ years)......

Someone else mentioned it earlier. I like menthol and always have some crystals on hand that I mix in PG. It's really strong. Add a couple of drops to almost any flavored juice and it will taste like that flavor with a touch of menthol/mint. Add a few more drops and it tastes like menthol with a bit of the original flavor.

So by that logic, hypothetically if someone gave you free analogs, patches, and dip, you wouldn't pass up on them either?

lol this is late, i have a bad habit of not checking my threads. I actually started dipping again after I made this post, but got 250 mil of pg and 250 vg, and am planning on a full on switch now.

If you absolutely hate it I would trade it for something you might like or PIF to someone else. If its just a little wrong then perhaps it would taste better mixed with another flavor or additive (EM/Menthol/Sucralose,VW). Mixing juices that did not appeal to me but had potential is what started me on DIY.

I bought a 60ml bottle of Cherry made by Top Vapor. The cherry had a nice ring to it but the e-liquid had some flowery herb like flavor in it as well that I could not stand. I cut it down about half way with VG. Then I added 4 drops of LorAnns Lime oil and added drops of LorAnns Strawberry until i could stomach the flavor. Then I allowed the home brewed mess to steep, shaking it thoroughly once a day. Now the juice is pretty weak from a nicotine stand point at about 6mg/ml, but it has a very strong Cherry Limeade flavor that I love. Tomorrow when my chemical resupply arives I will add some nicotine to bring the strength up to 18mg/ml. Keeping even just a few bottles of LorAnns dram sized flavors about can help significantly for just this scenario. They cost about $2 or less per.
