Hi guys!
I've been really wanting to make a good chai mix recently but all I have access to that's anything "spices" related is the TFA Chai Tea. I've seen HIC's Vanilla Chai latte mix and it sounds delicious, but I've only recently started DIY and my flavour stock is limited. What I really want to get at is a nice creamy chai latte-ish, leaning more towards authentic chai which would be more spice infused.
TFA Chai Tea, what can one say...it tastes like crap. I've tested it by itself at 5% and 10% mix and all I get is delicious old stanky towels and temple candles (what I've written down on my notes). You do get some sort of "spice" but overall I can't see what I can mix it with to get a good vape. Has anyone here used it at all? any good mixes?
Initially, I tried mixing this with a few sweet concentrates and creams, but still, all I could taste was temple candles. My first mix, which thankfully does not taste like wet stanky towels but tastes nothing like chai:
Chainilla V1
TPA/TFA Chai - 2%
FA Vienna Cream - 2%
FW Cinnamon roll - 1% (just because, cinnamon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
FA Joy - 1% (needed something to add sweetness, all I had was this)
TPA/TFA Smooth - 1%
TFA Bav Cream 2%
Total: 9%
I ordered a few more flavours since then, and now I'm thinking more:
Chainilla V2
TFA Chai - 2.5%
FA Vienna Cream - 1%
FA Joy - 1%
CAP Anise - 2%
INW Honey - .5%
Cap French Vanilla - 1%
Cap Vanilla Custard - 2%
Didn't think I needed the bav cream since I'll have vienna cream and the custard. Still on the fence about tfa smooth. In your experienced eyes, what would I need to change to make this better?
EDIT: meant to post this in General discussions, sry!
