I love the coolness a mint flavor brings when vaping. I love fruit's and other flavors but nothing compares, for me anyways, to adding a bit of cooling mint to my flavors.

I have been smoking menthol analogs for around 15 years and now vaping a menthol on a daily basis.

Question being, when making a mint/chocolate, mint/cherry, ect... would you add more mint with a touch of flavor or more flavor with a touch of mint?

I think a 70 / 30 mixture would be best but 70% what? Mint or flavor? I have a feeling that it should be 70% Mint and 30% flavor being that I smoke menthol on a daily basis...

It comes down to what you are using. i used the food flavorings from walmart and they are not as strong as the Loranns so i have to use more of the food stuff if i want more mint, less if using loranns since its so concentrated! at least is is for me!

There is no right or wrong. Part of the beauty of this is that you can do what you prefer. Personally my preference is a touch of mint because otherwise it overwhelms the flavor to me. But you may prefer it otherwise.

Mix a small batch of both (keep track and count the drops!). Then decide for yourself.

This is the correct answer.

The ONLY time there's a 'true' recipe is if you're trying to emulate a specific flavor. For example, trying to recreate a girl scout thin mint flavor may require a certain blend of chocolate, mint, and others.

If you're only looking to combine mint with others, then its entirely up to you!

Do you prefer 'mint', 'spearmint', 'peppermint', catnip, horehound, oswego (bee balm), bergamot...? These are all 'mints', and provide many wonderful flavors, and you can use as much or as little as you want!
