This sounds really delicious I'm going to mix this up when my FA order comes in...decided to go for the entire range bar a few ....I find the adv search hard..I just seem to like switching from one mix to another. :))

Not alone, Charlie.

Changing flavors - for me, frequently! - is part of what keeps me vaping. While I have several EDV, any of which could be ADV, mixes, I've never been pursuing the one and only. Variety is too much fun :)

    Let me know how yours turned out. My white chocolate mix was sort of flat/meh. I don’t think I have the knowledge yet to fix it. Looking forward to a recipe!

    After I mixed the one with smoked butterscotch, I tried it after a week and wasn't impressed but figured it needed a longer steep. I'll find out. I also went back and mixed Fran's white chocolate cheesecake in case I didn't like the one with the butterscotch. I also did up a 60ml bottle of cheesecake base with the brie like fran makes it.

    The one mix that I've stuck with for several years now is a tobacco menthol. I never have to worry about the taste being off although I do prefer it after the wick and coil are broken in after a day or so.

    Which vendor of fig are you using?

    :)
    FLV. I haven’t used it in a while, but I think it took several weeks for it to settle down. I meant to look for another brand, but that got put on the back burner for more important flavors

    I hope you like the Brie. I have several mixes with it now. Also liking the Ha Italian Cream in several mixes (almost fully steeped).

    I wonder if any of the other brands are good. I did a quick search on amazon and didn't see it.
    TFA isnt bad, a little on the dry side and kind of raspberry note. FLV is pretty good but its more candy. If you pair it with blackberry or blueberry it would be good

    Maybe I should get the TFA also. It might be worth trying both.

    I haven't tried the Italian cream yet. I should probably mix up a sft to try first.

    The Sherbet Lemon mix is delicious! I decided it needs to be a touch more sour. I added a little more VTA Sour Lemon to it, and some WS-23 because I think I would like my sour lemon drops put into the freezer for a bit. I made something from another UK mixer, nevans, called Shattered Lemon. He used Lemon Sicily and I subbed in VTA Sour Lemon, and he used Flavorah Lemonade and I subbed in VTA Lemonade (Clear). It is also delicious. I can't bring myself to try the Chai Tea I made from HIC's recipe with no real changes. I know that is going to need a lot of work.

    This is my version of Sherbet Lemons on Ice. It tastes exactly like Bassets Sherbet Lemon hard candy.

    DX Marshmallow (TPA) 0.5% (or your favorite plain marshmallow)
    Fizzy Sherbet (VTA) 4.5%
    Lemon (FE) 2.5%
    Sour Ball Candy (SC) (WF) 3$
    Sour Lemon (VTA) 2%
    SugarDaddy (Reg) (Rick's) 0.5% (or your favorite sweetener)
    WS-23 30% 0.5%

    This is the original that I adapted slightly.

    I add tangerine or lime for zest. I read about a zesty orange on elr, maybe MF. There is a bakery flavor that adds zest but it was a bready doughy flavor so I didn't make note of it, maybe Joy.

    I personally get a touch of zest from FA royal orange but not everyone does. My MF mandarin is almost steeped, I'll taste it tonight and get back to you. If you want to punch up the orange try a kiss of peach, nectarine, or raspberry. Are you using FW blood orange?

    Yes, the FW natural. I just want a little of that bite of zest. I think I’ll try a touch of lime. I’m going for orange plus zest. I considered a touch of pink guava before I asked you. To me it has a zest zing to it

    Then try the guava Mel. It would probably work, go with your gut. My gut likes lime and tangerine is all.

    Is the Sour lemon really a sour lemon?
