Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

@IDJoel I googled cooking with tea and it scared me. Not doing that again.

 

[FranC]

My goal for today is using the following flavors in at least one recipe
Smoked Plum
Fresh Fig
Forest Fruit
INW DNB

I have all but the Forest Fruit worked out but a fruit should be easy enough to use. Maybe just a simple mix with Green Tea so I can get the taste of the fruit.

I made a change in the Benedict Cumbermint (which is probably the same as Cucumber Benedict) from the original as posted by EdibleMalfunction on Reddit.

Yep, mine was similar but tweaked to fit request. Thanks for sharing all these recipes!

Managed to combine the Smoked Plum and the INW DNB in one recipe so 2 down. Fresh Fig up next.

I haven't yet mixed with all my new flavors but the ones I'm most curious about have been mixed. Next up is a cucumber mix or two.

@IDJoel. I want to do a simple mix. Just Green Tea and Forest Fruit. What % would you use?

FLV green tea?
1-1.5%
forest fruit 1.5-2%

I've been wanting to try some of OSDIYS' blends (ordered all, except for the licorice ) and grab some tobacco absolute to have around, so enter sale code... Wee!

Received my BCF order yesterday, so I'll be organizing those... I am ready... I think...

CRAP! I forgot the Blue Rasp Slush and the Arnold Palmer... Totally forgot they are in another category.

If they have not sent the order yet, you can place another order and in the notes asks for the new order be put with the original. And I would email them asking Kim to combined the 2 orders. I know she has done this in the past.

I should be getting all my flavors on the 5th, Thursday. Since we've got a new mailman, our mail doesn't come until late in the day.

I did already buy the new containers. So, by Thursday night I should be re-organizing my containers to fit everything in.

Oh, I don't think I can wait! Maybe I'll go ahead and organize today! I'll just pretend the new flavorings are here and leave empty spots for them! Yup, that's the ticket!

I have it. Rather sweet.

I don't get sweet at all from Citrus Mix. It's just an all around citrus booster for me. I don't have lime so if I want a little lime I use it. If an orange isn't coming forward enough I add a little Citrus Mix.

You're not normal if you don't forget something

I think I've given up on chocolate strawberry because chocolate raspberry happened a lot easier.

Chocolate is new for me. Do you have a recommendation for % for the white chocolate and raspberry? Is it snv or steep for???

If you just placed your order...I'd give OSDIY a call about forgetting the 2 others you wanted. Usually, she'll have you place another order for them, and they'll combine both orders together for shipping. You'll need to pay the S/H for the second one, but Kimberly will issue a credit to your account for it then. Give it a try!

ETA: Her husband is pretty quick with packing orders for shipment though, so you'll want to call ASAP.

Well...a bunch of posts hadn't shown up when I posted the above. Sorry S&S, I didn't see yours at all until I refreshed the screen.

Well, I just bought more flavors from BullCity. NR lost out cause I don't want to lose the discounts and free shipping from BCV. I was gonna give them a shot, but........
Now I gotta go buy some more cases from Amazon cause currently the ones I have are already full.

From now on if I don't have what is in the recipe I want to try, I either don't make it or sub something else for it.......enablers......yep, no doubt about it. LOL

No problem JC. You gave better advise cause calling is quicker than email.....and yeah, they are fast shippers. lol
