Recipe help please!

Hey guys and gals, I'm new to DIY and starting on my second batch, first batch was a raspberry cheesecake that turned out awesome!

Been looking at a bunch of recipes but I only have 8 flavors to work with, at least until next payday lol

Anyone have any ideas or recipes I can make with what I have on hand?

Making 10ml at 24mg nic or lower 70pg/30vg mix
(OneStopDIYShop Master kit)
I have 48mg PG nic base
VG
Flavors:
LorAnn - Butterscotch, Cherry, Watermelon, Cheesecake

TFA - Raspberry, Blueberry (extra), Sour, Black Cherry

I know it's not much to work with, but wanted to start small to see how I liked DIY compared to buying premixed before spending a lot of money on a bunch of flavors.

Thanks! And hope you guys can come up with some good recipes for me!

Cherry/watermelon/sour, butterscotch cheesecake I've had from a vendor and it was good, blueberry/cherry/sour. The downloadable diy calculators usually have a list of recipes.

The only real way to find out whether you like it or not is to try it. When dealing with new flavorings i usually do test mixes by dropping various ratios of the flavors to a paper towel, let it sit for a minute and then go in with my nose+tongue!

PS! letting it sit for a minute is essential, otherwise you could burn your taste buds with some flavorings. The time allows the flavors to spread out and lower their concentration.

Thanks!
The blueberry/cherry/sour turned out great!

Have also placed a large order for more flavors and copied a bunch of recipes that I've found.

If you find that your fruits are flat tasting add drop by drop a complimenting flavor to brighten it up. Strawberry I add dragon fruit. Blueberry add blackberry or cranberry. Cherry add cranberry. I always do a few drops and keep a record so you will remember what you added and how much you won't always taste the addition because you are adding a compliment not and not actually making it that flavor.

Thanks for the tip!
I've been keeping a log of recipes and what I use in the mix as well as notes on flavor, vapor, etc.. So I can try to adjust and fine tune as needed.

Many recipes include EM and sweeteners. Try to avoid these. U shouldn't have to use these. EM mutes flavors despite what others will tell U that it is a sweetener. The flavorings should be sweet enough at the right percentages.
