HIC's CLONE OF WHITE CLOUD FLINGS 'Lime in the Coconut' flavor

[HeadInClouds]

HIC's White Cloud Flings 'Lime in the the Coconut' Clone recipe:

6% The Flavor Apprentice Key Lime
1.5% The Flavor Apprentice Coconut Extra

This is a very good match for flavor and strength of the disposable coconut-lime 'Fling' e-cig from White Cloud

Thanks for sharing this HIC, I had written it down from the other forum while I was researching and learning, and it was my first 2 flavor blend for my mom who loves lime vapes and liked the flings....anyway, I'm new to DIY and this came out wonderfully, you rock! Even I thought it tasted nice and I don't usually like lime flavoring, it's very smooth.....thank you oh so much, this will save money and she even prefers this over other vendors' mixes.

I'm really glad your Mom likes it! And pats on the back to you, for mixing for her.

by the way, a couple other 'Flings' flavors: http://vapingunderground.com/threads/hics-clone-of-white-cloud-flings-vanilla-flavor.1963/

Bora-bora were my favorite, but I still haven't figured out that one.
Cinn is an easy one to match with TFA Cinnamon Red Hot around 3%.
Most of the rest, better-tasting versions of the flavor ideas are out there. Let me know if I can help find replacements for any of her other favorites.

Thanks so much, she primarily likes lime flavors(lime, coconut, pina colada...that's pretty much it currently)...she's been a tough one to find flavors for. Yes I did see the other recipes too(did a lot of reading and research before even attempted ordering anything), and wrote down so I don't have to search too hard again, you actually have a LOT that look delicious. She isn't buying Flings much anymore since she upgraded, but she did enjoy a few of their flavors, and some not so much, I noticed she gave a couple away to a friend at work this weekend, but for disposables, they aren't bad at all. Thanks again for sharing recipes, it makes starting out in diy much easier and pleasant. I'm hoping to expand her tastebuds some, but if not, this will be in her rotation heavily for sure, if lime she wants and enjoys, then ok, easy enough now, no more testing various vendors when it can made easily and a better price too.

Heya If you're still doing mom requests, mine likes the "peach pit" flavor ( I liked it too when I was using white cloud). I don't know if they had that in Flings or not, though. I haven't tried it in a long time now, but I remember the flavor being juicy-yet-earthy. One of the best peach flavors I've had.

They did have that as Flings. I remember those had a real edge (ok, pretty harsh) and assumed it was intentional. They were good peach flavor, I thought. If I were trying to match it, I'd start with 2% FA White Peach, 2% FA Peach, and 0.5-1% FA Brandy -- and let it sit a couple days for the Brandy to calm down. That's just going from memory; I have none of those left. The flavor had no cream, spice, other fruits, or menthol - just strong, good peach and that edge I thought was boozy. If your mom likes peach flavors, she may like FA better than flings!

a-ha! Thank you. The booze never occurred to me. Now I'm curious. I still don't have FA Brandy OR regular FA Peach, but a small amount of rum might work to add a little sumpin to White Peach & TFA Juicy Peach in the meanwhile. I don't remember them being harsh, but then, I was just off cigarettes the last time I tasted them.

You're right about my mom & FA - she mostly vapes what I make her these days and her absolute favorite is FA Espresso @ 2%. Lucky for me, it's about the easiest, cheapest good vape one can make!

While we're on the topic, do you remember Atlantic Cut? She liked that one a lot, too. She said they reminded her of the Sherman's she used to smoke. I have almost no clue about tobacco flavorings, but if you've tried them, maybe you have an idea where to start for something close?

Those were my partner's favorite White Cloud tobacco! I can tell you a thousand ways to not copy that flavor, if it's helpful. lol - I tried-and-tried, never got close on that one. Couldn't match the tobacco, or that type of whiskey, or the supposed maple, or even the coconut. I was able to get the color close haha.

lol... in that case, I guess I'll leave that endeavor until I'm a more seasoned cloner.

HIC, 3 days ago we got a new cookie at trader joe's and it's really, really good. Might be right up your alley, though chances are good you've already done something similar.. Anyway, they're Key Lime Tea cookies. 'Tea' being the style of cookie. Light but crunchy, with an awesome sour lime flavor that seems to hit your tastebuds in 2 seperate waves, each of with are a little different. I think it's because they have a lime flavored powder dusting, with more lime in the crumb of the cookie. Check them out next time you're there. They come in a short plastic tub.
