I sometimes find myself wishing there were some flavor combinations that I haven't seen.

I was thinking about something like the awesome green curry sauce they make at this Malaysian restaurant near me, it smells and tastes so great. Maybe some kind of mix to approximate that, something with coconut, lemon grass, lime, galangal, coriander, Kaffir lime leaf, and Thai sweet basil. (Like a green curry sauce without the onion, garlic and chilies).


A ginger & rhubarb would be nice, with a splash of citrus, or maybe with some cream

what are your wished for flavors?

It's not actually a combination, but I really, really want Lapsang. Souchong tea. However the tea itself is so hard to find that I'm not holding my breath. I may need to try basic DIY just for that and my home roasted Sumatran coffee.

In the DIY section I've seen people soaking things like tea is VG or PG and extracting flavors, it might work with your tea! I've been thinking of trying some extractions myself.

Most are based of some of the ice cream flavors i used to make. Blackberry basil, vanilla bean lemonade, Moroccan lemonade (lemonade with mint and coriander seeds), burnt caramel (would be like nicotickets creme brulee with the burnt just barely short of overwhelmingly bitter), Goat cheese brownie, brown butter/brown sugar/brownie, Brown butter pumpkin sage, shiso plum, bourbon gingersnap, etc, etc.

I really need to start DIY...

That's kind of what I was thinking, especially after trying to find a coffee flavor that I liked. Following some of the threads on coffee flavors and trying some of the few that are just coffee (no extra flavors, cream, sweeteners) it started look like extracting my own was going to be the way to go.

I'd want to find a base that already has the right nicotine level, since I have hand problems and wouldn't trust my abilities to get the exact measurements right.

Those sound amazing! Why don't vendors get creative like that instead of coming up with yet another ectocooler (whatever that is) or another cinnamon/menthol, etc...?

Some of the best e liquid makers are chefs in their daily life, I'm sure if you could make these ice cream flavors you could make them into e liquids and then market them and do us all a flavor favor! Do it!
(I'm desperate and demanding, lol)

If someone would come up with my favourite Subway sub, I'd be over the moon :

Tuna on honey oat bread with every single bit of salad (except olives), heavy on the peppers and mayo. It would save me a fortune at Subway ;)

I have actually seen all those flavors of e juice separately, tuna, bread, honey, peppers. All except mayo and lettuce...I really want a tuna sandwich right now, lol

I'd still need the carrot, corn, gherkin and jalapeno flavours though :laugh:

I've seen hot dog and Italian cheese flavour before, didn't really fancy them though without the mustard ;)

I just went to the coffee shop and got a hot chocolate with lavender flavor added. They're chocolate isn't very chocolatey, but still good. It inspired me.

So how about a creamy base, not too sweet, with white and dark chocolate and then either lavender, rose, or even a teeny bit of patchouli.

Saffron Panna Cotta

Soft cream with amaretto, pineapple, strawberry

Creme brulee with ginger

Cream with cardamom, lemon, rose and saffron

Watermelon with cucumber, lime, mint and coriander

Rhubarb, grapefruit, lime, (optional mint or maybe a touch of radish)

Creamy radish basil

Fennel, lemon, mint

Cream, paprika, orange

Watermelon, lime, mint

Cream, cashew, butter, sage

Cream, fig, cranberry, thyme

If you need a taste tester for the 3 above just let me know ;)
 
Strawberry rhubarb pie.

A vape that tastes like Justin's Maple Almond Butter.

A vape that tastes like the Black Sesame ice cream I had at a sushi place on Cape Cod.

Or a vape based on any of the flavors made by Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream in Columbus, OH (brown butter almond brittle or whiskey pecan being my current faves).

I've seen black sesame flavoring before, I can't remember where, you could get some and mix it with cream maybe. I have no idea what that tastes like!

I've only been able to find rhubarb from European vendors for some reason...

I'm going to send all the suggestions to a few vendors who I think would be up to the job, who knows maybe they'll be inspired to create these.

There are carrot, hot pepper, and pickle flavors. I recall seeing corn once. All were flavorings rather than premixed stuff. And then there's roast beef, potato, and much more. Oh, the world (of horror) DIY can open ;-)

I'd like to try chocolate cream pie, mixing 50% milk chocolate, 25% graham cracker, and 25% whipped cream.

For my cats, I'd like a high-grade catnip juice for them to vape. :laugh:

Alice in Vapeland has "cheshire catnip" which someone on here said tastes just like catnip tea. I don't have cats any more (developed an allergy to them :( ) or I'd test it out and blow a big puff at them.

I was talking to one of the vendors and he said that generally the same ratios that work in food recipes also work best in vape recipes when you're trying to emulate a food.
