DIY Floating Roots #ELRFEBMIX ejuice recipe :: e-Liquid Calculator

Diyejuice in Canada bought real flavors. I’m not sure maybe they reformulated a flavor or 2, but all the ones I’ve tried, (about 40 of them) have been spot on to the originals. Although the French toast isn’t one of them. They’re by far one of my favorite companies.

No “float” element here, so this one doesn’t count, but the profile did give me an idea for a southern Long Island Iced Tea :sunglasses:

So this is my final. I’ve had a couple of versions- one using Cake (white) FW and cake batter, but I think simply cake works better for a “boxed cake” mix. Very creamy and, personally, I think, it’s packed with flavor. Happy with this final version! Made public with appropriate hashtag :smile:

No idea what’s going on with mine. I gotta tasted again, last time I did the root beer faded too much.

Aaaaaaand it taaaastesss liiiiiike…

A very watered down root beer, ice cream is there but im getting more of a “root beer at the bottom of the cup with the melted ice.” Sort of flavor. Aww, I had high hopes for this one. It’s not terrible, but it’s just “watered down root beer flavor.”

Gonna try v3…

Y’know, it’s better. As far as the cream being in there. Root beer is still pretty watered down tasting though. :skull_and_crossbones:

Either I need to crank up percentages, or this one is doomed to fade.

I don’t know about root beer, never had it. But if I want a cream to mix with something that is causing similar issues to what you are talking about I used
FLV Marshmallow Vanilla.

Not exactly a cream but gives that vibe in some recipes. It works paired with SSA Ice Cream Vanilla, one I’ve used recently.

Just throwing out an idea.

This month made me realize that root beer, for all intents and purposes, is not for me. Although this mix tastes exactly how I imagined it to, it is way too heavy to become an ADV (for me). But if anyone likes cherry-vanilla floats, please give this a mix. I think it’s right on point, as far as the profile goes. But as I’m not a fan of RB, I’m in no way an authority on the subject. What I can say, is that this mix is well balanced, and every note intended comes through. It’s best after at least 3-5 days steeping for the cream to develop, and for the cherry and RBs to mellow.

First time posting and in the middle of a move. I’ve only been able to taste this once since mixing but I wanted to try a submission. Idk if I am using the forum right but I am doing my best. Here is my Feb mix.

diy-ejuice.com owns real flavors, & they sure do ship to the us. I buy all my real flavors from them. Just make sure you buy the sc versions. The vg versions are very weak, & take a month to steep. The fountain style root beer is AMAZING. It’s what I used in mine.

All right! I’m going with this one. The root beer really isn’t too too muted, It’s actually kind of perfect. The creams have come through too. It’s nothing thrilling, but it’s pretty tasty actually. It doesn’t have the strong licorice taste that my V3 acquired after steeping. So that makes me happy.

After a bit of tweaking and a lot of twanging I’ve finally come up with my very first Elr Mix a Long Recipe :+1: I very much would have preferred a mango Mix a Long but the wheel didn’t spin in my favour, I definitely blame @Rocky02852 for that :rofl:
I was more than happy making up a Root Beer Float recipe though!!

As the official wheel spinner, I’m definitely the blame for that one @MangoDan :disappointed_relieved:
But thanks for playing along!
And don’t forget you can always go crazy and incorporate Mango in a mix…

Alright, we’ll better get this posted before i forget or something. This has been quite a unique experience. I actually had trouble allowing this to steep longer than 7 to 10 days. The foam sensation on the finish just kept me going back for more. Still think it could use a more clever name but oh well
