Coco Mango Cooler

WF Coconut Rum (3%)
WF Island Mango (5%

It's so easy, I hesitate to even call it a recipe, but it's really good! I tried it a day after I mixed it and it was good, but it was much better after 5 days. The next time I make it, I may bump up the mango and leave the coconut rum at 3%.

Just had to pop in and say thank you for this thread. During most of my time with vaping I have also dealt with some pretty crazy (unrelated) health problems so, once I find a good mix I tend to stick with it for a long while and haven't felt much like experimenting. I started DIY for the money saving aspect though (and the fact that I can't stand a high percentage of sweeteners) which still holds true.

For the last year or so I'd been vaping a mix that included FW Candy Cane. The problem is, my lungs weren't really appreciating it. Come to find out, FW adds a bit of peppermint oil to their Candy Cane flavor... uhmm, no thanks?

Soooo I'm now playing around to find another all day vape. This thread is definitely going to be a gift when it comes to that and I've already added several to the trusty eJuiceMeUp files. Currently I'm also working on a simple Lava Flow clone as well as a key lime cookie, will post when I get them right since neither uses more than 4 flavors.

    Few flavor recipes are great if they are good. Not always possible to do

    Truth. But quite frankly I'm just too tired to mix something with 12 flavors, half of them decimal points, and instructions on combining only during a waxing crescent moon. ;):D

    I try to cut the line at 7 flavors and they are needed on most cheesecakes. I do prefer 3-4.

    I found this really nice recipe on ELR that is a simple 4 flavor mix. It's called Birthday Cake by I'mnotcharlesmanson.

    Biscuit INW .5%
    Cake Batter Dip FW 7%
    Meringue FA 1%
    VBIIC CAP 2%

    I'm really liking Cake Batter Dip FW as a cake flavor.
    This is so rare for me, I have all these ingredients! Hahaha I've been trying to do some cake things with the Dip too, this is great. Made my day.

    Happy Days!! It says on the original recipe that it's a shake and vape but I like it after two weeks.

    I love the flavors Aged Bourbon Cream, Caramel Butter, and Coffee Liqueur..... so why not mix them together? My first batches were okay, but lowering the coffee liqueur to 2% gives somewhat of a chocolate note to the mix that works better.... Smooth is the perfect name.


    Smooth
    Aged Bourbon Cream SC RF 4%
    Butterscotch FLV 2%
    Caramel Butter WF 4%
    Coffee Liqueur VTA 2%

    That seems like a lot of caramel butter. Is the recipe super sweet? I used caramel butter with cup a joe and really liked it.

    I don't think it's sweet.

    Caramel butter smells great on a sniff test. I have mixed some sfts up to 8% and it for some reason doesn't translate the same... sniff wise to flavor I mean. I like to mix with it though because it adds a certain richness and depth to a mix. It's like the caramel version of Flavor Arts Vienna Cream...

    Did aged bourbon cream used to be called something else? I can’t find it on my list.

    I don't think so. It's not available at BCF which is where I purchased it. It's listed as Aged Bourbon Cream (SC) Real Flavors on ELR. I gotta admit, I am going to be pretty disappointed if I can't order it anymore.....lol

    Didn't I read somewhere Real Flavors folded?
