Enhancing watermelon flavor?

[MitchB]

So, Ive been having this issue for a long time. Watermelon is my favorite flavor of e liquid. All the recipes I try that aren't watermelon, even other fruits, desserts, bakery, all of it has full flavor! However, when I mix watermelon I can never get a nice full watermelon flavor. Its usually just a hint of watermelon. I have heard this is how watermelon flavorings just kind of are.

I have tried many different recipes and am back at the drawing board. The only recipe I got full flavor from was Vurves BX Vapor Watermelon Crack clone. However, that, while good, has a lot of FW Jungle Juice. I am looking for watermelon as a main note. I can taste flavorings like FLV Wild Melon and INW Melon, just not watermelon nearly as much!

When I first started DIY I thought I was doing something wrong and almost gave up thinking I wouldn't get any flavor. Any help of ways to boost watermelon as a main note would be greatly appreciated. Any recipes are appreciated too. I have had some success with strawberry and dragon fruit.

Here are my relevant flavorings:

CAP Double Watermelon
CAP Sweet Watermelon
FA Red Summer Watermelon
LA Watermelon
FW Watermelon
RF SC Watermelon
TFA Watermelon
FLV Wild Melon
INW Melon
CAP Sweet Strawberry
INW Strawberry Shisha
TFA Strawberry Ripe
TFA Raspberry Sweet
FA Forest Fruit
TFA Double Kiwi
TFA Dragon Fruit
INW Grape
FW Hard Candy
FA Lemon Sicily
FE Lemon
FA Marshmallow

Thanks so much!

@HeadInClouds has a watermelon juice recipe that’s delicious. It can be found on Hicsmixes.com. I haven’t made it in a while & was thinking it’s that time again

Is it the "Sweet watermelon juice"? I think I found it. The FA flavorings listed in the original post above are pretty much what I have from FA. So, not so many. Its only $3 so I would buy it, but I don't think I would have the flavorings yet and just got an order in.

I found the recipe online elsewhere, I don't have the flavorings right now but might try to find some reviews on it and possibly get some with my next order. won't be for a month or so though. Thanks anyway! Trying to find something I can mix with what I have.

Yes it’s the Sweet Watermelon Juice. Yes you would need 4 other FA flavors. Sorry I don’t know of any other Watermelon recipe. Hopefully someone else chimes in.

I'm not an expert, but I add Fuji apple @ 2% and a drop in 20mls of Beryl raspberry. I also add ws 23 @ 1 drop per ml for my watermelon recipe.
Could you try your tfa raspberry? Forgot I use fa watermelon @ 4%

Yes I plan to try raspberry in it once this mangoberry I made is gone. Interested to see how it works out.

Might try diy or die watermelon recipe. I believe it uses Apple. I need it thought to make it.

Yo guys! Its 3:48am here and I can't sleep, so I got up after just laying here for awhile and decided to attempt a new watermelon recipe! I am so excited because this is the most watermelon flavor I have got out of any of my DIY liquids. It does need some tweaking, but its pretty darn good! I am
getting better at making my own recipes

@LeanPipe I used Raspberry in this recipe and it really worked out. Thank you!

@Heartsdelight I was looking at that "Sweet Watermelon Juice" recipe you told me about and it made me think to use INW Melon, because of the use of FA Orange (INW melon has a orange note for me) that one is my favorite melon! Forgot how much I like it. Also, It made me use my FA Lemon Sicily!

@wllmc Thanks dude! I used FLV Watermelon which I have only used a few times, Its really good!!

Here is the first attempt!

INW Cactus .25%
INW Melon 1%
FA Lemon Sicily .25
TFA Raspberry Sweet 1.25%
INW Strawberry Shisha 1%
FA Watermelon 2.5%
LA Watermelon 4%
FLV Watermelon 2%
Koolada .3%

Going to do some tweaking tomorrow but really happy with where Its at for my first attempt!!
