Just got some TFA Pear. I'm looking for a good recipe. I'm excited about the flavor, but not sure what to mix it with. I have pretty much anything you can think to mix it with... Any ideas?

I've been playing with pear flavor recently:
-Pear, Dark chocolate, Dulce de Leche, Vanilla, Rum.
-Pear, Dark chocolate, Apple Pie, Bavarian cream.
-Pear, Coconut, Vanilla, Lime
-Pear, Coconut, Vanilla, Bavarian Cream.
Not much use for me to give you the % as I'm not using TFA flavors. What I usually do is have 2 main flavors which each make up 1/3 of the total flavor, and the resting 1/3 is a rounding mix of flavors.
Example for 6% total flavor in 100ml
Pear 2ml
Dark Chocolate 2ml
Dulce de Leche 0.8ml
Vanilla 0.8ml
Rum 0.4ml

You could do something like a snake oil, Pear, Barvarian Cream, And Coconut. I would start of with something like 5% pear, 5% barvarian, and depending on what coconut 1-3%. I make something like this for my Brother, But I really dislike Coconut Extra TFA myself, I am one that gets that suntan lotion from it but there are ones I like a bit better TFA Coconut Candy, Reg. Coconut TFA is not as Intense as Coconut Extra. Flavorah,Flavor Art, and Inw. make better Coconuts IMO.

Well, I did the big 'no no' with my pear.
I got some cinnamon flavor that tfa has already diluted. I think its something like 5% cinn diluted with pg.
I then dilute it more using pg down to where the flavor is still there just not harsh at all. Maybe like one part cinn to 9 parts pg or vg.
Then I mixed both flavors as a stand alone.(pear and cinn). I then mixed to taste. It does not take much cinn at all to get the taste I want.
So anyway, I ended up with a cinna-pear flavor that I love. I keep a tank full but don't use it everyday, just once in a while I will add it back to a daily rotation. It is smooth with no harshness at all, but with all of the warnings about cinnamon, I try to taper the usage.
YMMV.

This is an old recipe of mine. Never mind what I said about it being all FA, only the white peach was. Scroll down to the last post and Mike put it in percentages.

Made this. Hated it!
3 days later I can't get enough. When I go full scale I will drop the pear by 1% and raise the coconut up .5-1%
Thanks!!
I don't have Honeysuckle and honestly have no idea what it is. lol
But I'm gonna order it and find out.
Horehound is another one I have no idea what that is but people recommend. I'll add that to the cart also and find out. lol
I have been mixing in to a 30 ml bottle 1.5 ml pear, .5 ml cream or sweet cream ,let it steep a week or 2.
It comes out good. I too am looking for more pear ideas.

While I was reading this I started to reminisce about a "treat" my Mom would let me have a couple times a year.
She was always one for fresh; so canned anything was not common. But, once in a blue moon, she would serve up canned pears. To make them more palatable she would drizzle a couple of teaspoons of creme de menthe over a chilled pear half. The minty sweet chilled goodness was amazing.
Now I think I am going to have to revisit this childhood memory. I need to get a sweet, syrupy, pear to emulate the canned fruit and then add a touch of C-d-M. Sounds fairly straight forward. I'll share if I get worthwhile result. Hopefully a 40+ year memory won't totally stink!
