Newbie Q: doctor up or diy bad juice?

[Tokumei]

I recently purchased 3 juices that are... less than great:

-- DK RY4 @ 24mg: oh what is that salty flavor back there?

-- DK Menthol @ 24mg: harsh but ok taste

-- Topvapor Coconut Cream Pie @ 18: harsh, tastes like coconut shell

Is it worth it to try to doctor up these juices (I also want to drop the nic level, which I understand ok), or should I start over from scratch? The DK-menthol is probably the most salvageable, but how do I figure out how to "reconstitute" the flavor after dropping the nic level to 12?

Does anyone have some easy doctoring up recipes that might ease me into this DIY thing?

I think the easiest way to start learning to DIY with purchased liquids of questionable quality, is to actually mix them in with flavors that you like. Be careful with ratios though, if the bad stuff is really bad, it doesn't take much to make your good stuff bad.

I'd start with an empty 10-30ml bottle and put in a little bit of the bad stuff and then mix in something that you like and think may compliment it.

Also, keep in mind that the more complex a flavor is, the more it will resist attempts to re-flavor it.
