DIY Menthol/Mint Recipes

I'm sure Peppermint in place of Spearmint wouldn't do any harm? I would think

Yup, peppermint would be fine.

Fisherman's Friend was one of the first mixes that I mixed for a friend who had just gone off menthol cigarettes. I think the original mix (2 year's ago) was about 18%, but that has been dialed back. I was going for bold and cold. The last mix I did, I used nicotine salts and she far prefers it to the original. She still uses a basic Twisp.
 
We need Fisherman's Friend to be posted here @Patrick. Personally, I am not a fan of spearmint and would like to use another mint in its place? @DoubleD loves it as is. See @rogue zombie is a fan too.

I used to buy the Fishermans Friend sucking sweets all the time - when i smoked
I found that they did a good job of removing the taste of the cigarettes after you had smoked
And i quite liked the icy cold inhale while having a fishermans friend in the mouth
Always had a packet in my car. For years and years.

Since stopping smoking i havent bought it again

Maybe thats also why i like my icy cold vapes

A great Fishermans Friend vape would be awesome!!
 
Yes please @Patrick , I thoroughly enjoyed Fisherman's Friend :)
Found two recipes online:

Question regarding the use of Menthol and actually concentrate ratios in general. The answer may be obvious but I have learned to take nothing in DIY for granted.

Busy working on a recipe to be posted here sometime soon I hope. While tweaking I ended up reducing the flavor concentrates by about 1.5%. Menthol remained at 0.5% however but this version seems to give much more menthol punch than before the reduction. Came down from 18.75% to 17.25% overall flavor. also left out 0.25% Super Sweet so actually came down 1.75% overall.

Did I err on when adding the Menthol or is this the result of the Menthol making up a larger portion of the overall flavor concentrate. If so, does this then also extrapolate to the impact of the other concentrates?

TIA

Regards
 
I haven't posted in awhile because I've been on my own mission with original crap... and busy with life in general.

But this is proper, and tasty. Totally adapted from Gordona Vapes Slim Mints, I switched the Choc out and uped the cookie, to what tastes like a yummy Peppermint Choc Cookie:

FA Cookie 1%
TFA Fudge Brownie 3%
JF Milk Choc 1%
TFA Mint Candy 2.5%

I mix at 70VG. 10 day steep. Yum yum.

A refreshingly simple, chilled Lychee vape which makes you come back for more, and more...

FA Lychee provides the smooth, realistic, fresh lychee flavor supported by a touch of sweetness in the form of Cap Sweet Lychee.
FA Cream lends a bit of body and enhances the mouthfeel, which allow the lycheee to show its full potential.
WS23 cools everything down without detracting from the star of show. Feel free to start the WS23 off at 0.25% and adjust up if required.
Sub WS23 with Koolada if needed.

Good on the shake, 3 day steep for the floral notes to subside and meld with the cream.

Welcome to the hole, all of us wish you well, bigger shovels are availble on request from the experienced guys. Back actors and Catterpillars are for your own account though, but you get deeper a lot faster. Mine is late today, must be traffic!:)
