Random DIY mixing and More

So, another question... I was under the impression that DX flavors are simply made without “undesirables” but taste the same for the most part. I’ve recently noticed mixers stating DX taste better sometimes (TFA pomegranate) and vice versa. For someone not concerned with the DX aspect but only the actual flavor, are they different enough you might actually need both the original and the DX versions?

What you want for Green Tea is TFA and FA for Black Tea. Joel has got me to order the TFA Earl Grey. I ordered the FLV Easai Tea also (Looks tasty).

Already had these green & black teas on my list. Just added the other 2.

I don't find them different "enough"

Well I found the recipe for the Berry Sorbet I mixed. Don't know what I was thinking

Berry Sorbet
VTA Sorbet Base 1.5%
WS23 .5%
BlackBerry TFA 1%
Blueberry Extra TFA 1.5%.
Raspberry TFA 1%
VTA Russian Vodka 1.5%
FA Bilberry 1%

They are not the same thing. I never noticed that BCF didnt carry it but NR does. The DX is my favorite of the pom flavors

Dc99’s is one of the ones that got me thinking. Good to know though. Thanks!

Try it and let me know if the CAP Lemon Lime works with the berries at 5.5%. I can tell you it doesn't work with pineapples and I used three and made them strong!

Being that TFA blackberry is so strong, I’m wondering if it might benefit from a bit. Though I should probably follow the recipe the first time around.

Haven't tried it. Now that I've found the recipe,I'm afraid to.

I do have plans on trying it today sometime.................

I don’t have Russian vodka or I’d mix it up real quick. Did you write this one?

Yes I did. Don't get the Russian Vodka. It sucks....no taste.

 

[FranC]

You could mix it with bourbon or whatever boozy flavor you have.

You have to remember everyone's tastes are different at least somewhat.

Sub suggestion?

Most I cant tell a lot of difference in. Some are worse, some are better. It stands to reason that if you could make every flavor without the "undesirables" and make it taste the same there would be no need for undesirables. Sometimes it depends on the percentages used as to whether there is a difference or not. In the case of pom there is a difference for me anyway.

Makes sense, ty

Boozy apricots sounds like something I’d like to try. Do you mind sharing your recipe?

It's actually a pretty simple mix I've tried various iterations as it were...

FA Brandy 3%, FA Peach 1%, Purilum Mango 1% (mango makes everything better!) FW Apricot 4%.

I've added either Toasted Marshmallow or Silverline whipped marshmallow. (0.5--1%)

I drop sweetener (Supersweet) per 30 ml. You can forgo the sweetener unless you like sweet mixes like me. LOL.

Best vodka taste I've gotten is using actual vodka. It has its issues, for sure, and you really can't use a lot (and have to be willing to use it) but it's certainly authentic tasting. LOL.
