Prickly pear and rum just seem like terrible flavors. Anyone have any good advice for mixing either of those?
You mean their Jamaican Rum flavor? I like it very much with apricot and a touch of coconut. I'll find my bottle for the recipe if you like. As far as a good standalone Rum, I think FlavourArt's is superb.
Prickly Pear surprised me. I expected (hoped) it to be sour, like a drop from the bottle tastes, but it wasn't like that as a vape. I mixed a smoothie-flavored vape with tiny percents of prickly pear, lychee, lime, and watermelon that worked. I'll never use it standalone, but it seems to blend with other unusual fruit flavors as a background note. It definitely works with dragonfruit flavor.
