5 Pawns Bowden's Mate has been an ADV for me for a very long time. When I started DIYing, one of my goals was to create an interpretation worthy of the real thing. I tried every clone recipe out there I could find - none came even close. More than 6 months and 20 versions later, the one below ticks all the boxes for me - a really simple recipe compared to some of the others tried.

The Peppermint, Menthol and Koolada percentages below are as close to the real juice as one can get imo, but feel free to play around with these to suit your personal taste.

Steep: INW Milk Chocolate starts coming into its own from about 10 days.

MATTHEE'S MATE
INW Milk Chocolate 2.5 %
TFA French Vanilla Creme 1.5 %
CAP Vanilla Custard V1 1.0 %
FA Peppermint 1.75 % (anything from 1.5 to 2.0 % will work, depending on your taste)
TFA Menthol 0.5 % (increase or decrease to suit your taste)
TFA Koolada 0.5 % (increase or decrease to suit your taste)

Total flavour: 7.75 %

I got the flavors but just haven't had a chance to mix this up yet. Thank you for reminding me though. I'll get a 30ml batch going tonight.

Made some today, like it and can't wait for it to age a bit... THANKS
I did leave out the Menthol as I don't have it so it may be a bit different but I like it anyway.
