I realized this morning that I was down to 10ml of my menthol tobacco so went and mixed another 90ml. I am going to try hard to work on getting my flavors put away and organized better today. I have a little work outside to do trimming a couple trees but hope to spend some time on organizing. My organized chaos has become unorganized.

SIngle Flavor Testers of a few new flavors are needed in my world. That, plus finishing notes on the ones already tested.

My brandy and gingerale is GREAT! Huh, I had no idea that like, fizzy could be a thing in vaping. I mean, I know you all were talking about it, but I was like, "This is a secret plot. I will believe it when I taste it."

LOL so I guess I believe it NOW. It's nice. I am using it plus my regular brandy and apricot mainly so I can vape it MORE.

Well,the boozy mix is just plain too sweet and not good enough to fix so I'm moving on to something else.

Are you using TFA Ginger Ale?

My current project is to make enough juice to last me for 4 weeks back East because there is no way I am hauling flavors back with me. I made up 240 ml of Cran-Apple and 240 ml of Sherbet Lemons today. Of course, that led to the need to order four concentrates from THREE DIFFERENT PLACES! I had to have more VTA Sour Lemon, so I ordered that from Chefs. I had to have more VTA Fizzy Sherbet and Wonder Flavors Sour Ball Candy, so there is a BCF order. I also needed more FE Lemon, so that forced an order from ECX. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to get everything from one place?

I probably should have thrown some VTA Lemonade Clear into that Chefs order because I have decided that is a great lemonade.

I haven’t even gotten to my lemonade clear yet. What are you mixing it with?

Try adding some of the sweet rice. Might try coconut or mango with it.

I did a second with the sweet rice added. It’s yummy. White chocolate is definitely in the background on that one. I’ll try coconut next. Also thought about marshmallow and a little lor cci, or would that be too cream cheesy?

For me there is no such animal as too cream cheesy. Marshmallow and cci will be very sweet, also cci isn't very good before 6w, better at 8wk imo. I was hoping the rice would work, I have a recipe with it and white chocolate for a base. Forgot I also have .4% of cream cheese in that base recipe.

My plans so far have been a bust. Didn’t get the tree trimmed or work on organizing flavors. There’s still a little time left. I did get a couple chores done though.

I haven’t even gotten to my lemonade clear yet. What are you mixing it with?

My notes on the flavor:

• Lemonade (Clear)
  
  Tested at 7%. Strong, sour lemon on the S&V. After 48 hours, it is a fairly sweet/tart lemonade flavor. After 7 days, the lemonade flavor is stronger. It is a bright tart, realistic lemonade with no fizz. Of the lemonades I have tried, this is a favorite. I would use it like LA Lemonade at the same percentages. Use this as the primary lemonade flavor at 4%-7%. As a background 2%-4%, stand-alone 7%-10%. This the perfect lemonade for mixing with other fruit flavors to make a Pink Lemonade or another fruit lemonade as the lemon flavor will hold up to other flavors. It does fade though.

It is fantastic in this recipe:

Shattered Lemon
Fizzy Sherbet (VTA) 5%
Lemon (FE) 2%
Lemonade Clear (VTA) 3%
Sour Lemon (VTA) 2% (or use FA Lemon Sicily or INW Shisha Lemon
SugarDaddy (Reg) (Rick's) 1% (or your favorite sweetener)
WS-23 30% 1.5% (or to taste)

Yes I am. I only have a little bit of it. I think I am going to need to buy more. LOL.

That sounds good. I have everything besides the sherbet. Off to the wishlist I go.

I ran out of new stuff to try so I went back to my Cereal Bites recipe. It's pretty tasty right now.

I got out the last of the four cranberry mixes tonight to start on tomorrow. So far, bottle number three has been the best with 1% raspberry added and 2 each of Fuji and two apples. The last bottle has 4% Fuji and 1 raspberry. I still haven’t gotten around to trying the new vt lemons I got from chefs. They are over a week steeped already.

I think it's time I worked on some recipes but no good ideas have come to mind yet.

Hi Pam, Decided to make the recipe except I had to use LA Lemonade as I don't have the VTA and I used the FA Lemon Sicily also. Smells wonderful.....not sure how much steep time the LA will take but I do know some of LA other flavors can take up to 3 weeks to really pop. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

It really is a S&V recipe. The LA Lemonade is good right off for me. I let it sit overnight just to settle. The VTA Lemonade is better after a week.

I love the sweet rice, so that mixed with smoked butterscotch and white chocolate works for me. The wc is just awol to me, even in a 2 flavor. With just raspberry, it gave a creamy, but I got no chocolate. It’s tasty, but I could get cream from a bunch of other flavors. May try white and dark chocolate with the butterscotch. I have the VTA toffee ice cream mix which I love, so I don’t need something else that close to it.
