I've been trying to make a nice strong Lemonade, you know, the kind that makes your jaw bones quiver :w00t:

I've tried FW Lemonade @ 12, 15 & 17% with some Tart & Sour and sweetener. I used 5 drops of both in 30mls of juice. It smells good enough to drink, but not near as strong flavor wise when vaped.
I added 4% Lime Tahiti in the 12 mix, hoping it would bring out he lemon....no
The 17% was way to much, I lost all flavor, I get that.

I tried a Strawberry Lemonade today, 10% LA Lemonade & 8% TFA Strawberry. Again, just to week in the lemon flavor.

With both brands of Lemonade flavor I'm getting that nice citrusy sharpness.

I've had Electric Lemonade by Paradise Vapes, a Canadian vendor, it was an awesome strong lemon flavor. I'm trying to capture that strong, in your face, jaw tingling lemon in my lemonade :p

Any ideas on what concentrate brand to try, or what other flavor will make lemon intensify? Would ACV be what I need to include in my Lemonade, or a Key Lime maybe?

I find Lemonade to be such a refreshing vape, just want to improve on this for when the warm weather hits this spring.

Thanks for all the help & input folks.

Have you tried/used this? The name does say it all, sounds like what I'm looking for, as long as it's strong on the lemon.

I have it and the Inawera WG Lemon and it is good I don't know how it compares to the ones you've tried. So far most of the Inawera Fruits I've tried have been better than the other Vendors.

I'm partially disappointed in the Lemonades' I've tried so far. I tend to order everything I can from Canada. Guess it's time to change my ways.

What other flavors do you recommend from Inawera?

If I'm placing an international order, I want to make it worth the wait & shipping.

Just a novel idea here, but have you tried adding lemon juice to your lemonade? There is nothing quite like it for making sour fruity flavors really pop.
This is a good idea IMO. I made a mountain dew clone that was kinda blah, so I added a few drops of lime juice to zest it up. It definitely did a lil somethin, and the same could be done w/ lemon juice.

I have a "need every flavor addiction" I've really been enjoying the fruity juices and candy lately.

Right now I have to go squeeze a lemon & see if I can liven up my blah lemonade.

Thanks for the help folks, I really appreciate it.

If you have plain old lemon juice (you know the one in the bottle that looks like a lemon) that will work.

I use Watkins Lemon Extract purchased at Walmart @ 5% and add a couple drops of TFA Sweetener per each 5 ml. I tried using EM/Cotton Candy but it softened the lemon too much. Steep time was very short (24 hours) and the flavor seems to fade over time--not quickly but definitely not as good at the 2 week mark as it was at the 1 week mark. It's a little too potent to shake & vape though. A hot bath or quick trip through an ultrasonic cleaner should fix that.

I like to add in a little bit of TFA Strawberry Ripe, TFA Peach Juicy or an unloved, store bought Pineapple to change it up some times. It is one of my ADV's--this week anyway.
