Another member here is mixing it but changed Sweet Cream to Whipped Cream I believe and also enjoying it.

I haven't really played much with it lately, I pretty much stick to these %'s and mix 180mls at a time. Its been satisfying me as my all day vape since 2/15.

I smoked menthols for almost 40 yrs and this recipe suits me just fine.

I made this several times, as written, and decided something wasn't quite to my taste - there is, to me, a buttery flavor in the Sweet Cream. That is just one of the many wonderful things about DIY. I tried several different changes and ended up with this. I don't think I could make this better in any way, for me. :)

Crème Chantilly de Menthe (props to Sgt.Rock but I decided my changes gave me leeway on a new name. LOL)

10% Menthol Solution 2%
Creme de Menthe (TPA) 6%
DX Marshmallow (TPA) 1.5%
Koolada 10% (TPA) 1%
Smooth (TPA) 1%
Whipped Cream (TPA) 5%


I am SO grateful to you, @Tmebs as I would probably never have found this if you hadn't posted. Thank you!

I am sure that is very good. "Notes of chocolate; a rich coffee flavor that has a dark, burned cocoa zip." I don't want any chocolate in my juice but the OP might enjoy it.
Yeah, it's like a creamy peppermint bark, or an Andes Mint, but it's delicious.

It sounds delicious! All of the reviewers give it 5 stars. I am obviously weird when it comes to what I like in vape flavors and though I adore chocolate to eat, and love coffee, I don't want either of those flavors in my vape. I hate fruit flavors too. It has to be minty, menthol, etc. to make me happy. So, I am a boring vaper and stick with the recipe above, now that I have perfected it to my taste. :)

I hear you, there are some flavors i like irl but not in vape form, as well.

I don't get coffee notes in that though.

do you have a good one to share?

TFA

Crème De Menthe 6%
Sweet Cream 2%
French Vanilla 2%
Graham Cracker 2%
Cotton Candy 2%

This has been one of my regulars for quite a while. Sometimes I add some Honey but it clogs up the coils pretty quick.

I don't like strong menthol. I kept adding other flavors until the menthol got toned down to my taste.

I am vaping this one as we speak. It has been in my rotation for what seems like forever but has only been since Sgt. Rock first posted the recipe. I too smoked menthols for most of my 45 years of smoking and this one definitely scratches that itch. :)

@PJReid, I plan on ordering Whipped Cream soon to try your version.
Will give my feedback soon. Also going to give the Cap Sweet Cream a try. Been reading it is a good one.
Maybe make up a 30ml batch of each one. One with Whipped and one with the Caps SC.
:)

I read that the Cap Sweet Cream is less cheesy than TFA so would be interested in your feedback. I almost ordered some myself but didn't for some reason. I read also that the Cap Vanilla Whipped Cream is very good but decided I didn't want any vanilla in my juice. I did buy 10mls of the Flavorah Creme de Menthe but haven't tried it out yet. I did take a whiff and all I smell is chocolate. Who knows, add some Koolada and it might be fabulous. We learn as we go.

I tried my hand at an Andes Mint type recipe a long time ago with all TFA
dark chocolate and creme de menthe and koolada.............wasnt the greatest recipe and never made my want to mix a large bottle. So many NEW flavors to buy and soooo little money, plus I am really satisfied with this recipe so if it ain't broke.

Oh. and I don't get that cheesy flavor some people talk about or pepper from VBIC or Butter flavor from Coconut. My taste buds may just be shot or not sensitive. LOL
