Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

The cap sweet strawberry is sweet, maybe you can try OSDIY Succulent strawberry as a sub. I don't think that one is sweet, at least to me. Tastes just like a ripe strawberry.

I may do a remix at some point. I was thinking of a mix of strawberry and kiwi.

Rather than a contest why don't just start a collaborative recipe thread?

This sounds great also but I was thinking more along the lines of lots of winning recipes opposed to one

 

[FranC]

But we have lots of winning recipes right here

The problem I see is subjectivity concerning a juice contest. If I don't care for tobacco recipes I'm not going to vote for one for example. Maybe if you had categories for individual flavor profiles: straight fruit, custards, etc..

Very true! It could be interesting, if it’s allowed. I’m sure it’d be hard to judge though!

Idk, maybe gift cards to our DIY venders? Any other ideas?

 

[stols001]

I bet we all have enough/some backups of things we could "offer." LOL the trick would be matching the item to the winner.

I would enter... And be totally mortified if like, I came in LAST. But, it sounds fun enough that I could accept my "participation" trophy, like a gorilla bottle or something. Heh.

I really don't see the point as everyone's taste is different

I’d be totally honored to come in last!

Well, I’d do one myself if I could try them all myself. That’s the biggest problem I see. I guess perhaps it might have to be a long ordeal for mixes to have time to steep and get to them all, twice!

Trying my last attempt at Fizzy Gin Breeze. I give up . I really don't know why it's so sweet unless it's in the lime and pink champagne

FA Gin 1.5%
FA Lime Tahiti 1%
FW Pink Champagne 2%
FA Kiwi 2%
FA Grapefruit 2%
WS-23 .5%

Mixed this one too many times. Moving on now.

This is pretty far removed from what the Fizzy Gin Breeze started as, which is of course, not a problem if you like it. Looks like you replaced pineapple with Kiwi. No pomegranate which does bring the tart. If you wanted to pursue this, and I am not suggesting you should, I would go back to the original and make changes, one at a time, from there. Or else, move on. Personally, I am liking the Cranberry Pomegranate Champagne Sparkler, the Fizzy Sea Breeze, and the Pineapple Basil Rum Fizz more than the Gin Breeze.

Yes.I've gave up on the Gin for now anyway. Still liking the Cranberry/Pom. Still have to try the Fizzy Sea Breeze

I use many subs, another persons recipe is more a useful guide to me, not something I will actually mix as is.

Ive been finding myself do that more as I get to understand flavor better.

@NatashaTMT maybe instead of a contest ask people what recipe they would enter in a contest? Many types of mixes would be posted and people get to share their bliss.

I’m not into bananas in juice. Any thoughts on something to replace it with? I was really just looking for another fig recipe. Love peach, apple is ok. Feel free to make it completely different

Have you gotten any creams yet?

[NolaMel]

Vanilla should be in the box that just delivered. I don’t like the mouth feel of creams/custards etc. And I don’t like tooooooo sweet. Hmmm, not picky at all
