effects of adding liquor to e-liquid

[VictoryNotVengence]

What are the different types of booze you can add to e-liquid?
What are the different effects that they produce?
Can you describe the feeling?
What percentage should I add?

This makes sense cause when you take a shot of brandy or rum or something your throught burns so adding some to e-liquid should produce a milder effect of that right?

Oh post receipes to...this tread may get popular

I tried about 10% tequila in 36mg VG once. It gave a good throat hit but very little tequila flavor. Maybe you could concentrate the flavor by evaporating it down until it was like syrup, then add enough PGA to create a thick liquid.

I have made e-juice using maybe 10 drops of cognac to about 10 ml of 36 mg juice. The effects that I experienced was a stronger throat hit.

A friend of mine uses some sort of alcohol in his juice..but i can't remember what. I think im going to try this with some Tuaca that i have in the cabinet. It might make a good flavor for vaping too.

I've seen others here who add a few drops of pga to their juice, they say it helps keep the attys clean and clear from residue. This makes sense to me.

I've tried using different liquor's in ejuice, if it is a weak flavor you can sometimes taste the liquor, mostly adds throat hit. I have concentrated a couple by burning off the alcohol and simmering the result down. So far have a great scotch flavor, plan to make some absinthe flavor once I get some.

Vodka adds a bit of throat hit to VG juices in my experience. I tried 15% and the throat hit became unpleasant and the vapor went away (I was already using water+PG based flavors in high concentration so that may have worsened the vapor production as well -- Capellas is very watery). So now I stick to 5-10%.

I imagine most liquors/liqueurs are not good for the atomizer because they contain sugars. Even a little sugar can gunk up the works. This is why people stick to vodka or Everclear (or PGA, pure grain alcohol) for the most part, I think.

TastyVapor uses Bacardi 151 in their homebrewed butter rum flavor, which apparently works out well (I'm waiting on an order of some).

I have used Enclear 190 proof. I have even put a drop directly on the atomizer with the eliquid. It gave a great throat hit.

The TV Butter Rum is delishoushnesh... I'd say it adds the throat hit but it might have something to do with the flavor.

Idk, when I first got it it was too much. But either I've become adjusted to it or it has aired out some.. it's very tasty tasty.

Captian Morgan's Spiced Rum. Nice rum flavor, no alcohol effect, in that small of an amount it evaporates first. Nothing really special to write home about. You do have to watch out for the types of booze used for flavoring as the sugars in the alcohol when heated can clog up an atty.

Vodka, you can't really taste, it does add to throat hit.
There's so little that there is no affect.

 

[TropicalBob]

Correct. Not enough of an effect to warrant diluting the nicotine liquid. Not worth it.

 

[martha1014]

You can always increase the nic amount to compensate.

I remember now! There was a few bars around where I live that were atomizing booze. Instead of drinks, you'd go in and basically inhale the booze. I can't remember if it was heat generated or put through some kind of cold vaporizer. This was a few years ago and I remember it was even on a news report. This was around the same time as oxygen bars started popping up. Apparently, it was a clean buzz and was reported to have no hangover effects. Is that what you're really asking about? Put the booze in with the juice to catch a buzz?

I add about 10% 100 proof vodka to my diy mixes, adds a little throat hit and definitely seems i have to clean my 510 atty's less. PGA is not available in PA.

non of the liquids I've tried give a TH cept nhaler watermelon lung juice. TW 36 mg tobacco give me a good TH but since I've been vaping for awhile now I can't tolerate high mg liquid, it makes me stoned so I need ways to make lower mg liquid have a better TH.

the combination of those two results makes it sound worth trying.

what is the point of adding the alcohol?
