    Well,I tried it and not getting any terrible taste from the .5% INW White Grapefruit I used. Also not getting the tartness I was after. It actually has a bit of sweetness and Nothing I’m in a hurry to vape so it’s going down the drain.

    I like the FLV Cream a lot too. I am experimenting with the Creamy Butter Mint recipe by subbing out the heavy cream with a different heavy cream. Today I mixed it with FA Whipped Cream at 2% and with CCW Devon Cream at 2%. Both of those need a few days to steep and I will report the results. The FLV Cream might well end up being the best of the bunch but it is nice to be able to offer subs so that people can use what they have on hand.

    OMG, the Pillow mint is DELICIOUS! It’s my new favorite! Thanks so very much for sharing such a great recipe!

    FYI, @PJReid's Lemon Honey Eucalyptus for Colds is in the blog as Honey & Lemon Cough Drop.

    I changed the name for myself since I honestly think it has some medicinal value for nose and throat but maybe not so much for coughs. IDK If it works for you, who am I to say it isn't good for coughs.:D

    Thank you so much. I am thrilled that you love it! So far, I have tried it with FLV Cream, VTA Sweet Cream, and FA Whipped Cream and all are good. Both the mix with FLV Cream and VTA Sweet Cream are somewhat sweeter but I am enjoying the one with Whipped Cream right now. I am going to give the CCW Devon Cream version a few more days before I try it. This is a versatile recipe.

    Hello all! I hope your day is going well. I’m thinking of making a big batch of the pillow mint and not adding nic until ready to use to decrease oxidation. Is this a bad or a good idea ?

    I don't know how big a batch you are thinking of making but have always been told that nicotine is part of the steeping process. About the most I make at a time of any mix is 240mls, divide it up into 60ml bottles and have had no trouble with the nic oxidizing.

    Thank you. That makes the recipe all the more interesting and better if it’s versatile! What a winner this one is! It’s feels good to know that once my adv runs out, I have a great, homemade substitute! I better buy big bottles of all its ingredients

    Vanilla Bourbon and Vanilla Swirl should both be in your vaping arsenal. Excellent flavors. Also think you would like the Perique. As for the chocolate, I didn’t want it up front. You could use a different one.
