what determines the juice coloring?

probably food coloring duh lol. but i'm more curious as to why it seems to change with each bottle i get.

my first bottle of cheesecake was clear as water, got one today and it's orange. got 2 bottles of fried apple, one was yellow, the other was clear.

i'm not irritated or anything, i'm just wondering why it varies so much.

I think its a combo of flavoring color and nic.

I vote for the nic being the variable. As nic ages and is exposed to light it turns from almost clear to yellow and then to brown. I've had some that turned pink as well.

I second (or third I guess) the nic. I have had all sorts of variation in diy juice.

Many flavors are clear but they change in color also, not many flavors used in e juice have food color in them.
Just the color of the molecules.

Probably due to aging. I DIY....a lot. Certain flavorings mature differently. Example; my French Vanillas start out almost clear. After about a week they turn a medium to dark amber. After a month, like a fresh poured Guinness (and quite smooth).

Raspberry, same thing. All my ingredients are clear. After about a week Raspberry turns a golden amber color (and ramps up in flavor...gotta be careful with this flavor).
