    All I can say is that there have been several juices, both diy and premixed, which have done the same for me. I haven't been able to narrow it down, but there's no doubt it's one of the flavorings which is the culprit.
    And, whether it tastes good or not is irrelevant. Good luck.
    I did post that coffee recipe this morning.

    This is my promised recipe. Despite the strange ingredients, it's a surprisingly good coffee mix. Coffee lovers, please mix and tell me if you likey. @Zazie

    Iced Latte Coffee
    VT Cafe Latte 2%
    VT Coffee Base 1%
    WF Chocolate Mousse 1%
    WF Vanilla Cream 1%
    WF Vanilla Ice Cream 2%
    LOLLOLLOL.
    I'm a coffee lover and of course I don't have a single one of those flavorings.
    But, I completely expected that to happen

    What are you random folks up to this evening?
    Just hanging. Got the baseball game on, Red's team and my team. My team is winning for a change. His team bats last so everything could change, fast. Who knows. :lol:

    If I pull the plugs on my Roku my TV says no signal.
    I don't have a Roku. How is your Roku connected to the internet? Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi? Were you getting YouTube and the other service you have through the Roku?

    "When you turn on your Roku streaming player or Roku TV™ for the first time, your device will automatically prompt you to establish a connection to the internet over Wi-Fi or Ethernet cable."

    If you have a smart TV you should be able to connect it to the internet via Ethernet and/or wireless. For wireless you will need the Wi-Fi network name and password. Depending on your provider those can usually be found on their gateway/router. Mine is located on the AT&T gateway. On my smart TV the Wi-Fi info is entered in the settings. Once you have that set you might have to change the input on your TV.

    My Vizio smart TV is currently connected via Wi-Fi and I am able to stream all sorts of stuff. It has apps galore for just about every streaming service.

    I couldn’t put my finger on it… almost like the bottom of a burned cookie. Dropping it way down helped a little, but that acrid flavor lingered. I could see using one drop in a creme brulee to mimic the burnt sugar topping. Other uses, I’m not so sure
    I've noticed FW uses actual sugar in a number of flavors, I wonder if the Waffle Cone is one?

    Katya says 3% with FW white tea. That's what I used when I mixed with it the other day.

    Everything Katya says should be taken with a big grain of salt. ;)

    First, I mix low. Second, I don't really have what you consider recipes. I just flavor my eliquids--kinda.

    My method of trying new (and even old) flavors/mixes is always the same: 95 drops of nic base into a small bottle, 2 drops of primary flavor (tea, coffee, FA Custard), 1 drop of secondary flavor (fruit, cream, something minty). That brings me to 97% (close enough). Shake and vape. Put away for a few hours, shake some more and vape again. If it's good, I add 3 more drops of base and I call it a day. If it's off balance, I add another drop of flavoring, shake, vape, and ponder some more.

    So now you know. :D

    @Katya also mentioned mint green tea. FA Spearmint is what I have. It's a good flavor. I've added some to my flavorless on occasion (a drop or two).

    I like FA Spearmint and Peppermint. Their Menthol is just plain old menthol, methinks. All nice.

    But I miss Halo's Ice Menthol. Not sure how they made it, couldn't find any clones anywhere. There was some secret ingredient there--nobody seems to know what it was, though. *sigh*

    My wife has mint in her green tea everyday. I don't but it is really nice. A bit of a classic in Morocco and other countries although they tend to have it very sweet :)

    My Moroccan friends just stuff their mugs with fresh sweet mint leaves and pour hot water over them. Honey is optional. They don't even bother with the tea. :lol:

    I like green tea with fresh mint a lot. And I have a steady supply of mint from my backyard.

    Thing is they already started slowing Priority Mail packages many months ago. Historically those were all 3 day delivery times.

    My DIY Vapor package that was "out for delivery" on Monday is now (back?) in Los Angeles. :facepalm:

    Hope you like them as much as me :). My Chocolate Croissant mix is almost empty. Definitely a future mix.
    Yes....that ones on my list too...it sounds really good. I'm still vaping a choc crumble ice cream....your base. I love it. I'm a fan of the VT mousse too.
