Very tasty, refreshing and not overly sweet. I can easily vape this one all day and come back for more. I highly recommend any Mango lover to grab a bottle of CAPs Sweet Mango on their next order.
Sweet Mango(CAP) 6%
Mandarin(FA) 2%
Raspberry(FA) .5%
Coconut(FA) 1%
I mix 30pg/70vg-2mg
This one is good to go after a 1 day steep.
If flavor looked like something, here's what this mix taste like.

Thanks Squonk! Now I have to go order CAP Sweet Mango. Does the missing one flavor ever end??? Oh well, I'll copy paste this into my to try file and mix it up when I get around to ordering more flavors. I suppose I could try playing around with FA Mango which I do have.

Tell me about it. I have 7 new flavors and 7 re-orders coming. I think it all started when I ran out of FA Fresh Cream. Save me from myself.:(

Looks really good. I'm in the same boat as others...just missing one flavor. Since I am without the FA Mandarin atm, do you think FA Orange would work as an acceptable substitute?

I never tried FA orange, but like I always say..... give it a shot. What's the worst that can happen?;)

I'm anxious for the sweet mango to get here, as I've found a mango/raspberry sherbet recipe I'd like to try.

The mango in the actual recipe I've never heard of, but the sweet mango sounded like a decent sub, just maybe at a lower percentage. Hope it's as good as it sounds and looks....;)

I have no VBIC. I guess I could try 2% FA Vienna and 1% FA Fresh and sub raspberry with FA and Vanilla Custard with CAPs. :mad:What the hell man? I'm not buying more flavors...... Or am I?:confused:

Holy Crap Teresa!:eek: That's not the national seed vault. That's the God Damn solar system seed vault. Next time you say you don't have a certain flavor, I won't believe you.

But it's true, even with this mess, I still get the "one flavor short" syndrome. Kinda makes me angry when that happens now....lol!

So I tried this using FA Orange in place of the Mandarin (using same %) and it came out to be decent. As a shake and vape the mango was a bit pronounced, but has really mellowed out after 2-3 days. I was missing Mandarin to recreate the original so I don't can't say with 100% certainty, but I think it would be a better fit than my mixture using FA Orange. With Orange I'm left wanting a little extra sweetness and something else I can't quite pin down. I may try using a little TFA Honeydew and/or FA Lemon Sicily to experiment with the overall flavor profile further. TFA Juicy Peach may also be a contender for variants I want to try.

Overall the recipe is great as starting point for further tweaking (since I was missing that one flavor to replicate it exactly). If I stumble across an ADV worthy recipe (for my very-sweet-tooth taste) based on the original I will definitely post back with results.

Thanks again for the share Squonk! Keep up the good work and happy vaping.

I like the juiciness and natural sweetness of FA mandarin, but don't have orange to compare. I like real mandarins over oranges anyway. I mostly rely on my flavors and higher VG for sweetness. Maybe add some EM/cotton candy if you like sweeter vapes. I agree regarding CAPs sweet mango needing a few days to lose it's slight bitter bite and mellow out. I hope you can find the combo that suites your taste.

Ohhhhh myyyyy, this ^^^^ is a MUST MIX, I made some today and it's AWESOME!! Tastes like melted sherbet in my tank! Mine is predominantly raspberry, as I accidentally did 2% instead of 1% raspberry, but it is still divine! :D

I'm starting to get the hang of this DIY- it may need plenty of steeping time for my brain to produce the right flavor but it will get there eventually. Sometimes you may have to overlook some of my comments :) LOL Thanks Squonk ;)

I was going to try this, but I don't have FW Vanilla Custard. How does FW's compare to CAPS V1 or V2?

To me it's a lot weaker, less "body" than Caps. It provides more of a cream element to this one. It's a wonderful juice, I've gone through quite a bit of it. But I do prefer it with Caps VBIC and 2% Inawera raspberry.

I made my near version of your OP a couple of times Squonk, but not for a while now.
It's such a good flavor combination I think I'll make it again.
(I don't really put coconut in anything else)

The empty bottle is even sitting right here... don't even need to rinse out a fresh one.

:p

I made this and realized I didn't care to much for the Mango :( With that being said, my oldest son and his girl/friend LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!! They brag about it at the e-cig shop that she works in. She has even told me that she would buy it from me. I told her that if she paid for her supplies that I would make it at no charge, and show her how to do it at the same time. I like were this recipe is going though. I wonder if the prevalent mango can be replace with orange.... maybe could be called the Floridian Refresher or something. I think I want to try that! What do you think?

I thinking maybe peach. To me, mangoes are tropical peaches. Try what you like, it's your taste buds.:)
