Yes, thank you. I saw @FranC post on the Random thread. I need to keep in mind the time difference between Chefs and us so I do not miss the deadline.

I saw your list on the Random thread and have added a number of flavors to my list. Any recommendations for Russian Vodka recipes in case I need to buy new flavors?

I will post the vodka recipes I like most in a day or two. I am packing and getting ready to catch the red-eye from Seattle to DC tonight. Home for two weeks. YAY!!!!! The hardest decisions on what to take are the mods and tanks. :D

    I am home and severely jet lagged. I had trouble getting much sleep on the red-eye flight because the plane was somewhat uncomfortable, even though I paid extra for an upgraded seat. Had a nap when I got home and I should be okay by tomorrow. There is basketball today and tomorrow - something none of you know about me is that I am a huge college basketball fan. I promise to post the recipes. :D

    I have not been on an airplane so no jet lag however I have been in bed at 8 pm a couple of nights this week. Just could not keep my eyes open.

    It is halftime so I looked up these two vodka recipes. Both are quite tasty to me.

    Fizzy Sea Breeze
    Aurora (FA) 1%
    Cranberry (TPA) 3%
    Lime Tahity (Cold Pressed) (FA) .5%
    Pink Guava (Flavorah) 1%
    Ruby Red Grapefruit (Natural) (FW) 1.75%
    Russian Vodka (VTA) 5%
    Soda Base (SC) (Real Flavors) 2%
    White Grapefruit (INAWERA) .25%
    WS-23 30% .5 to .75%

    Fizzy Bay Breeze
    Aurora (FA) 1%
    Cranberry (TPA) 3%
    Golden Pineapple (CAP) .8%
    Lime Tahity (Cold Pressed) (FA) .5%
    Russian Vodka (VTA) 5%
    Soda Base (SC) (Real Flavors) 2%
    Sugarloaf Pineapple (VTA) 2%
    WS-23 30% .5 to .75%

    You can sub Cranberry (SC) for the TFA if you like. I think it is better and stronger but does require at least a week’s steep. I would sub it at 1.5%.

    I'm not a big lime person but I can do just a tad and I finally orderd the Aurora @PJReid

    I think you will be pleasantly surprised. I use it at 1% but you might want to go with .5% to start. It will add that "something, something" to your cocktail recipes, even those with bourbon, scotch, etc. IMO, it is the magic!

    Belated thanks for the recipes — been under the weather.

    Looks like I will be placing a few more orders ;). Before I do, for medical reasons I cannot eat/drink grapefruit so I do not vape it either to be on the safe side. For the Fizzy Sea Breeze, if this was changed to a different citrus, what would you recommend? No doubt I have an assortment of lemons, a few orange type flavors, a few limes including FA Cold Pressed, FA Distilled, FA Florida Key Lime and CAP Lemon Lime. I am not opposed to buying whatever is needed that I do not have. I will probably end up placing another order with CF as I would like to buy FA Lemon Zest although I do not have a need for it at the moment.

    For Fizzy Bay Breeze, I will go with SC Cranberry only because there are very few TFA flavors I can taste. I will order the flavors I am missing. How long of a steep would you recommend using SC Cranberry?

    Well, you can't make a Sea Breeze without grapefruit but I bet you could make something delicous along the same lines using lemon or orange or both. Maybe sub out the Guava and Grapefruit flavors with 2% FE Lemon, 1% Lemon Sicily, and 2% VTA Sour Lemon. The sky and your tastebuds are the limit. Lemon and Tangerine? Lemon and Pomegranate?

    I bought the Lemon Zest and have never used it. I thought I did an sft for it but can't find it in my notes. I will check when I get back to Washington to see if I still have the sft.

    The SC Cranberry needs about 2 weeks to fully develop.

    Thanks once again for your help — I plan to look up vodka flavors on the internet too as I know there are many different ones IRL. If you think about the FA Lemon Zest when you get back to WA, that would be great. If not, no worries. I was able to buy SC Cranberry from VT — only place I could find it.

    The other flavor that I have on my list is INW Mix Mint. After vaping and enjoying your cough drop recipe a few months back and continue to enjoy Heart of Andes, I find that I like the minty flavors much more than I thought I would. Not sure what I will use it in however nice to have on hand in case the occasion arises.

    I don't have INW Mix Mint. I do have the INW Natural Mint. I was hoping it would taste like mint I picked from my garden but was disappointed in it. I wanted to use it to make a Mojito and it was okay but not what I was hoping for. I like mint and menthol in all of my vapes but the Natural Mint wasn't quite what I was looking for. It had a little too much spearmint in it for my tastes. Maybe the Mix Mint will work for you. Let me know. I was turned off by the description of Spearmint, Peppermint, and Wintergreen all in one flavor. I want fresh from the garden mint flavor and haven't found it. *sigh*
