Anyone read that recipe? Where's the Cola? I suspect an error.... then again, maybe modern "cola" doesn't have any cola at all. lol.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_nut
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cola

The last article says primarily vanilla and cinnamon. Hmmmm........ no wonder I vape vanilla so much. Now I need to experiment. Cola e-juice, cola water......

P.S. Aren't there vendors that will add caffeine to their juices? lol (careful with that one).

Then again, there are flavor vendors that have done this work already.... you can buy cola flavor easily enough. Question: anyone tried them? Any good?

I haven't listened to the podcast yet but the very 1st thing it says is 3 drams cola, then goes on into other ingredients. I'm not sure how to read that, was it 1st made with 3 drams cola extract, and those other ingredients are use these days.

I hate to give a smart .... answer, but if I try it, it would just be because I can. Sometimes there is just something really satisfying about creating, or recreating something on your own. Yes you can get the e-juice flavor from vendors, but the 1st thing I thought when I was reading that article is DIY.

Not at all. My thought process was a bit thought-less. lol. No offense intended. I was just thinking about how I would make it, then realized that the flavor vendors have already done this. But.....I confess.... I did mix some vanilla and cinnamon and citrus in some water to see what the flavors would taste like. Meh. Definitely a "background" flavor to the cola, I'd guess.

Yeah, and for some reason I read the cola as a heading, not an ingredient (like the 2nd list). lol. Like for "cola" use these below... I just read it wrong. In my own limited defense, it was a bold face font like the other heading.

The vendor comment was mostly leading up to my next question on cola flavors and who's to buy. Didn't mean it to put you off experimenting at all. Hope you come up with the ultimate DIY cola. Let us know. Good Luck!

P.S. Now, if I can only find a good KFC chicken recipe (for chicken, not juice)......although.... nah...

This reminds me of a silky (stupid) guitar joke.

How many guitar players does It take to change a light bulb?

5, 1 to change the light bulb and 4 others to stand around saying , aw I can do that.

BTW did you know it takes only one drummer to change a light bulb? He just stands there, because the whole world revolves around him.

OK i'll stop before someone reaches out and hurts me because of the stupid jokes. I'm not sure who has a good cola didn't ever look for that, hubby is a Dr Pepper fan.

Ouch..... So did my comment make me out to be a guitarist or a drummer? Neither very flattering, in your context, I'm afraid..... touché ! Hopefully, it was just the musical notes.......

Funny tho.

I'm with hubby..... +1 on the Dr. Pepper.

lol.

Let's hope for a good cola recipe/recommendation posted in the next 2 weeks. In time for next month's order. Sounding good. I'm getting sick of my DIY vanilla and need a change. Thanks for the OP and the recipe catch.

I'm pretty sure TW does... at least I thought it was TW, maybe it was someone else.
I'm not sure how well it survives the vaping process, nor how concentrated it is.

Edit: yeah, TW. The Decadent Vapour products- Green Cow for sure, possibly Doppio Espresso
