DIY Bombies 'nana cream ejuice recipe

#1 by chsados, Sep 17. 2014, 03:17

Pretty spot on, good job!

#2 by Elturiel, Feb 5. 2015, 06:58

Fuck ya happy to see you here man. I cannot express how much I appreciate your hard work at making this recipe available.

#3 by UmbrellaLiquids, Feb 6. 2015, 23:39

I've found 2% to be the sweet spot for CA, where it won't gunk up coils and still has the desired effect.

#4 by BigTex666, Mar 4. 2015, 06:52

I'm with Elturiel. Thank you very much. Got this from reddit. Very good to see you putting recipes up here. Definite adv for me and my friends

Thank you again.

How much steeping does it need?

#6 by M4ximus Pr1me, Mar 19. 2015, 09:44

Hi, is the citric Acid important? What is the purpose of Citric Acid in DIY? Sorry for the newb question.

#7 by HukIt, Mar 29. 2015, 20:08

@m4ximus it make fruit notes pop!

#8 by chinolofus, Mar 31. 2015, 21:04

holy fuck is exactly what i said the first time i took a puff 10 min ago. this stuff is amazing and i dont even have the citric acid yet (gets here tomorrow). i didnt let it steep either. this was the recipe that got me to start DIY...thank you, thank you, thank you.

#9 by StonedShrubbery, Apr 1. 2015, 01:51

really good. tastes like bombies and has the same after taste too. MAKE SURE YOU PUT citric acid in it. this rounds the flavor out and is extremely important to the flavor of this juice.

#10 by Dapacer, Apr 14. 2015, 03:30

THANK YOU FIZZMUSTARD!
Good shake and vape. AMAZING after steeping!
For those who haven't tried this recipe, I feel sorry for you...

#11 by STONE HAMMER, Apr 15. 2015, 18:19

Quick question. You say in your notes to add 1 drop citric acid per ml. So 15 drops for this recipe? Sorry if it's a stupid question.

#12 by Run The Jewels, Apr 18. 2015, 10:30

Good! Tnx for sharing! I think 0,5% of some cream (whipped for example) give to it more round taste. I've used banana crea TPA... its good.

#13 by dly, Apr 21. 2015, 09:59

whERE DO i GET CITRIC ACID FROM?

#14 by Mordred, Apr 25. 2015, 19:45

You can buy it from a health food store, it comes in the form of crystals just dilute it with PG and your good to go

#15 by Buice, May 1. 2015, 16:49

Is this starwberry ripe, sweet or normal?

#16 by koniferus, May 8. 2015, 10:32

Normal Strawberry - My batch was pretty nasty on day one. By day three it's really started to taste amazing.

#17 by dedone, May 11. 2015, 15:47

maybe it's a stupid question, but is the same if i use some real lemon juice?

#18 by Warproof, May 16. 2015, 07:45

i've used 2% lemon juice , very good shake n vape

#19 by Kigger, May 17. 2015, 18:33

What is the steeping time on
it have been steeping for 3-4 days now and the flavors is very muted

#20 by koniferus, May 18. 2015, 01:23

Mine tasted too strong and like crap for 2 or so days. By day 3 it was amazing. I made a higher PG version and it strangely had less flavor.

#21 by Jubei007, Jun 1. 2015, 05:59

After smelling Bombies and tasting, I think it may have some Pineapple in it. Maybe adding a few drops may get it a bit closer. Good recipe,

#22 by Chad, Jun 2. 2015, 22:57

So, lemon juice can be used in place of the citric acid? Can't find it anywhere.

#23 by ADV_search, Jun 4. 2015, 18:52

gonna whip this up havent found a good nana yet

#24 by soulBit, Jun 18. 2015, 00:22

@Chad you can get it easily from Amazon or eBay as crystals, add 1/2 tablespoon to 20ml warm PG and shake till it dissolves

#25 by Collins Russell, Jun 27. 2015, 19:11

I accidently ordered CAP Dragon Fruit on Wizardlabs. Research told me that CAPs DF is a lot more potent than TFAs, so I cut the percentage from 3 to 1.5 using CAPs DF. Well, it still overpowered the juice, but not in a bad way. Their Dragon Fruit is actually delicious, and spot on. I might tone it down a bit more, next time, to allow more banana to come through, but I'm loving it as is honestly.

#26 by Collins Russell, Jun 27. 2015, 19:19

Sorry, I used CAPs Dragon Fruit at 2% in my first batch, not 1.5% as stated above. 1.5 might be perfect.

#27 by iCloud, Jul 4. 2015, 02:31

I made this, after the first day it tasted like candy banana chews. After day 3 of steeping it had developed a sort of bitter after taste. I think I may have used too much citric acid as I had to guess a gram of it to add to 10ml of PG. Will try making again when I have access to some scales. Thanks for the recipe though!

#28 by kompressaur, Jul 8. 2015, 19:16

is Sour the same as citric acid? thanks. Also TPA banana for LA change it much? ta

#29 by singlecoil_vape, Jul 9. 2015, 18:05

banana is sooo hard to make good gonna give this one a try as soon as i get some citric acid

#30 by soulBit, Jul 9. 2015, 18:10

@kompressaur citric acid = tart, malic acid = sour. You can leave the citric acid out if you like, fizzmustard has said elsewhere he doesn't include it any more (some people get wheezy chests from vaping it, others say it makes the juice taste worse)

#31 by Spacegost , Jul 25. 2015, 13:02

i used TFA lemon in place of the citric acid and this is the best shake n vape ive ever had. im not even a big fan of banana vapes but this shit is great.

#32 by Djvapes, Jul 29. 2015, 06:28

A hint of milk chocolate would be tits in this.

#33 by babayaga, Aug 13. 2015, 10:18

Why Banana Cream (LA), is it better then the TPA offering of Banana Cream?

#34 by apollo, Aug 17. 2015, 07:03

has anybody try adding menthol on this?

#35 by Djvapes, Aug 17. 2015, 17:26

I added 1% koolada. Not good

#36 by Gtrfrk83, Aug 21. 2015, 23:02

Don't think this one is going to get any steep time, stuff is great as a shake and vape without the CA!

#37 by Dio, Aug 27. 2015, 12:24

Just amazing after shake and vape...thanks mate!

#38 by AK47, Aug 27. 2015, 21:33

If you put Citric Acid or any other Lemon/Lime flavouring: It is important to let it breathe with the cap off overnight - this allows for the perfumey/alchaholy/bittery smell and taste to escape.

#39 by babayaga, Aug 27. 2015, 22:00

So I made this with TPA Banana Cream and a second batch with LA Banana Cream and it does make a difference and is much better with LA Banana Cream.

#40 by iCloud, Aug 27. 2015, 22:22

I found it's definitely better after a steep if using citric acid AK47. The citric stops tasting as harsh and it brings out the banana.

#41 by AK47, Aug 27. 2015, 23:06

^ for sure. I also use Orange Mandarin (TPA) instead of dragon fruit, and add 3 drops of stevia. makes my tastebuds go wild.

#42 by Dushy, Aug 28. 2015, 23:43

Where can I buy the citric acid like can I buy them off Amazon? I need some help.

#43 by iCloud, Aug 29. 2015, 19:11

I got mine from ebay.

#44 by AK47, Aug 29. 2015, 22:00

u can use lemon lime TPA as well, it is pretty strong.

#45 by altneurose, Sep 4. 2015, 15:50

Haven't tasted the original, but this is pretty good. Not as good as the hype might portray, but it's good - even though the citric acid (I know omitting is recommended now) gave me a canker sore.

#46 by TomLoon, Sep 11. 2015, 20:13

This is was okay. Thanks.

#47 by vjice, Sep 12. 2015, 01:23

l just made it and vaped it. taste pretty amazing. thanks for the recipe

#48 by RedRooster, Sep 13. 2015, 14:03

This is my ADV.!! My first ever "self mix". Absolutely amazing.

#49 by Kevinl86, Sep 14. 2015, 19:41

Made some of this yesterday in a 15ml glass bottle, no citric acid. I used every flavor it called for exactly. I spun it on a drill for a good 2mins after, stuck in a crockpot bath for 4 hours around 150F (warm setting) making sure to shake every 1.5 hours. After that I gave it another shake and took the cap off to let it breathe for 4 hours. Tried some as soon as I emptied the tank of my 'real' 'Nana Cream by Bombies and WOW is all I have to say! I think I feel a 120ml coming up in my near future!

#50 by Djvapes, Sep 14. 2015, 19:58

I would recommend getting l.a. banana cream clear as it doesn't have food coloring

#51 by HC2S, Sep 21. 2015, 14:01

I used Banana Cream (colorless)...The bottle I made finally made it to the steep box. Not sure how long it will stay there. ;) Great vape fresh off the heated stir plate after 3 hours at 125-130 deg F / gentle stir. I have never tried the original, but this is danged good stuff.

#52 by rsimmy, Oct 1. 2015, 10:34

Used TFA Banana Cream DX and a mix of CAP sweet Strawberry and TFA Strawberry ripe. Flavor is muted, I'm thinking of upping the percentages 1.5x. I should probably go ahead and get the actual ingredients though.

#53 by mrgoat, Oct 6. 2015, 13:57

Holy Moly. Delicious.

#54 by joee, Oct 9. 2015, 19:52

you can buy citric acid from a home brew store super cheep

#55 by qJ, Oct 15. 2015, 00:27

where does the note say 1% CA is added? And can i use Tart flavor from TPA as a sub? Thanks!

#56 by kevin_215, Oct 16. 2015, 23:25

@qj
fizzmustard removed the Citric Acid from his recipe.

quote: "I no longer recommend using citric acid in this recipe; it tends to mute the flavor over time and isn't very gentle on coils. Up to you whether you use it or not. I personally don't." :end quote

#57 by ClayG, Oct 17. 2015, 04:57

So many people like this. I guess it's ok, not my fav. Tastes like chemical candy-ish, even after a week steep.

#58 by TheVapinSailor, Oct 20. 2015, 07:01

Gonna try this with TPA Banana Cream (DX). Anyone know what kinda of % would be equivalent to LA Banana Cream.

#59 by rsimmy, Oct 20. 2015, 07:06

@TheVapinSailor I've been using about 7-8%.

#60 by TheVapinSailor, Oct 20. 2015, 07:30

@rsimmy Cheers dude, I'll give it a go. Never tried the original but it sounds good ;)

#61 by rsimmy, Oct 20. 2015, 07:49

@TheVapinSailor I haven't either haha, nor used the LA Banana Cream, but I used 5% at first and it just wasn't coming through.

#62 by TheVapinSailor, Oct 20. 2015, 12:05

@rsimmy shake and vape or steep?

#63 by rsimmy, Oct 20. 2015, 12:47

@TheVapinSailor both for me, it was good fresh, and it slightly changed after a few days. Little more creamy I'd say.

#64 by kellycburman@gmail.com, Oct 21. 2015, 06:05

Any reason why its only 25 drops/ml for this recipe and 35 for most of the others?

#65 by HC2S, Oct 21. 2015, 06:16

@ObeyOrDie because not all droppers are the same size. The best way to mix is on a digital scale that reads to .01 gram resolution. Accurate, quick and easy.
You can find them all over the place for less than $20.00 USD. Also, find one that has a 500 gram max capacity. If you mix in glassware or even large bottles, some of them can be quite heavy and max you scale before you get all the ingredients in. For larger batches of course.

#66 by trebor, Oct 22. 2015, 03:25

Made this, took 4 weeks befor I liked it.

#67 by kellycburman@gmail.com, Oct 22. 2015, 03:34

@HC2S Thanks for the advice and I already ordered a scale and it should arrive in a few days.

#68 by Ichini Shichi, Oct 22. 2015, 17:09

just made some, is it me or does the flavor taste slightly muted? I mixed everything per instruction but it doesn't really stand out like how everyone here claims to be.

#69 by trebor, Oct 22. 2015, 18:58

Let it steep. I tried it weekly and at week 4 it all came together.

#70 by HC2S, Oct 23. 2015, 13:57

@Ichini Shichi The beauty of DIY. If there isn't enough flavor for your palate, increase the percentages gradually until you find your sweet spot. I also found it a bit muted, especially at max VG. So.... in went more flavor. MO' FLAVA!

#71 by matdam, Oct 26. 2015, 03:05

is it taste same if using banana cream tpa.

#72 by fourletterwords, Oct 30. 2015, 01:39

oh man - I switched out the strawberry (i didnt have it) for 2% tfa straw ripe and 5% CAP sweet strawberry

This is quite close to the original - very impressed right after a shake

#73 by HC2S, Oct 30. 2015, 19:48

Ima have try that mix, thanks four. :)

#74 by the_meteorologist, Nov 3. 2015, 21:02

Just an incredible recipe. A very strong flavored vape that doesn't get tiring throughout the day. I've mixed many recipes since starting DIY and this is hands down one of the best. Worth gathering every ingredient necessary to make this phenomenal recipe!! Great job, fizzmustard. Looking forward to more great recipes from you in the future.

#75 by CAraM3L, Nov 7. 2015, 02:06

Thanks fizz, been vaping this for a while now. CA or no CA it's great, and it mixes very well with mustard milk!

#76 by Biff Tannen, Nov 12. 2015, 07:42

Tried it with TFA Banana nut bread in place of banana cream, and Ripe Strawberry in place of regular. That's all I had around, but it's pretty delicious having never tried the original.

#77 by danda69, Nov 15. 2015, 06:45

have made this 2 or 3 times now always turns out great..one of my wives favourites...5 stars..

#78 by SKettaneh, Nov 15. 2015, 10:22

Tried it and it tastes just like shit

#79 by illitirit, Nov 16. 2015, 09:19

does anyone know how different adding citric acid to this makes the juice turn out? Is it really a night and day difference?

#80 by Heizenberg, Nov 16. 2015, 10:40

Tried with TPA banana cream instead of Lorann's one. Tastes not so good as i thought.

#81 by TheStankTank, Nov 17. 2015, 03:58

Great vape.

#82 by RuntDastardly, Nov 19. 2015, 22:18

This is the first recipe I chose to DIY. I bumped up the percentages slightly to work on lower wattage and higher resistance (how my dad and sometimes I vape) and I didn't even need to. This is a scrumptious shake-n-vape and my new ADV. Thanks for this, Fizzmustard!

#83 by CAraM3L, Nov 25. 2015, 13:42

@HighasFawk I found a thread on r/DIY_Ejuice posted by zenergy1321 that talks about using 12% VBIC and 8% of pre-mixed nana cream flavor base. 12% was too high for me especially since im using the capella version, its much more suited to my taste, also less spicy for most people. In my final recipe it works out to 6-8% CAP VBIC, 2.64% LA BC, 1.6% TFA Dragonfruit, and 3.76% TFA strawberry. IMO the VBIC needed to come way down from 12%, the nana cream never had a chance of shining through.

#84 by austin, Dec 6. 2015, 00:45

made it and love it. vaping it now

#85 by CAGE RATTLER, Dec 6. 2015, 02:13

Gave this a try a couple weeks ago and it was OK. Just not my thing I guess. I had ordered the real thing to try as well and must admit the clone is much much better than the original. I threw the original in the trash. That was some nasty chit IMO.

#86 by rnaumov333, Dec 7. 2015, 20:46

That is some good stuff! I've done 9 mixes so far from elr, and thats the best one. Thanks!

#87 by Juice Craft, Dec 17. 2015, 16:28

anyone experienced a different taste in a kayfun ? the flavor seems... to focused on the banana and has a slight chemical taste. However, on the dripper its good!

#88 by Juice Craft, Dec 23. 2015, 02:24

Tried, and just like one of the comments above it tastes like chemical banany candy on a kayfun. Are these recipes meant for subohm tanks only?

#89 by JSKRON, Dec 23. 2015, 19:22

My favorite banana recipe! Thanks!

#90 by CM808, Dec 23. 2015, 21:03

swapped out strawberry for tfa ripe strawberry and it came out amazing even as a shake and vape. gonna stash this one away and come back to it in a week or two and see how it turns out! great recipe!

#91 by Mammo, Dec 30. 2015, 19:34

what could the banana cream be swapped out for as im not a banana lover?
Any ideas?

#92 by Just Mixing, Dec 31. 2015, 01:59

I'm thinking of trying this with FA Lychee. Sounds like it could work. Any thoughts as I don't have dragonfruit?

#93 by shaun, Dec 31. 2015, 15:14

Made this today. Still seem to have some vape fatigue/tongue. So I was worried I wouldn't taste this. Just starting out and this is probably my favorite so far thanks.

#94 by vlad, Dec 31. 2015, 15:42

Banana Cream (LA) is very perfumy even after two weeks steeping

#95 by Evo8u24, Jan 4. 2016, 06:52

How much of a difference would tfa products make instead of the recommended tpa and la?

#96 by luchometallica, Jan 7. 2016, 02:43

Hi there, i make 300ml exact recipe (no additions) 70/30 , is day two of steeping and i taste nothing just a vague banana no strawberries or nothing just very weak flavor , can anybody tell me what i did wrong?
or will improve with time

#97 by Juice Craft, Jan 7. 2016, 03:15

@luchometallica same thing with me. what tank are you using? i find that majority of ejuice recipes in this site are not good on regular tanks. most of em are for subohm drippers or tanks.

#98 by luchometallica, Jan 7. 2016, 06:00

@Juice Craft Im using derringer and a freakshow mini / jap cotton kanthal 0.3ohms in a 4nine mod. and just gettyn a horrible chemical taste with some banana very weak i made my batch and just leave in a cabinet in dark place shake very very well and leave for half a day then open about 20 minutes then shake and leave again in dark place unopen but no improve .

#99 by Ibrahim, Jan 7. 2016, 13:32

Can i use Lemon Flavor instead of Citric Acid..... Actually, Citric Acid is available in dry crystal type form. I don't know how to mix it in PG and in what ratio. I have search on utube also but nothing is found relating the topic.

#100 by vlad, Jan 7. 2016, 22:52

with all due respect to the guy who posted this recipe - I must say - it's not vape-able. I've been steeping this liquid more than 3 weeks and it still has highly pronounced perfume-ish smell and it vapes horrible.
I don't care what the other guys say but this is what it is. I wouldn't spend money for this one

#101 by luchometallica, Jan 10. 2016, 09:53

i just made a 30 ml recipe (before was 300ml ) thinking maybe i did something wrong , but no this recipe is horrible is like vaping straight vg with a hint of banana with chemical taste no strawberries pineapple nothing very weak flavor and like vlad said non vape-able

#102 by Awayze, Jan 10. 2016, 21:14

I used TPA BC at 7%, left it to steep for 2 days in a cupboard and behind my PS4 for a few hours today, its ok. Not much taste on Atlantis 2, it is weak for now, I'll let it steep for another week or so.

#103 by Shardamakah, Jan 12. 2016, 01:13

Don't know why this gets such praise, tastes just like a regular banana cream mix with vg pg

#104 by sevencrafts, Jan 15. 2016, 09:52

I had to tweak this to suit my flavour stash and it's still amaze-balls! Made 20mls yesterday, making another - bigger - batch today. It's fruity, smooth, sweet and tasty. 5 Stars all round. Thank's for sharing.

#105 by LordVapor, Jan 17. 2016, 18:02

I made a small batch of this awhile back and kinda forgot about it. Just pulled out a bottle and this is a killer vape! I will be making more of this one for sure!

#106 by Clutch2k3, Jan 21. 2016, 01:34

simply awesome. its a shake n vape and it gets even better after 3-7 days. I've mixed over 200ml of this by now

#107 by Moosiecakes, Jan 21. 2016, 04:51

So what are the alternatives to CA? TFA lemon?

#108 by Awayze, Jan 22. 2016, 16:15

The TPA BC gave me a headache. Despite the headache, I vaped 30ml in a couple of days, I'll need to try it with CAP.

#109 by Jason fox, Jan 27. 2016, 13:34

@fizzmustard if i make this in higher vg will i loose flavour? And lower the vg ratio more flavour? As I understand higher vg ratio more flavours needid rite? Thnx

#110 by Vapes, Jan 28. 2016, 00:30

Not close. Good recipe. Tastes like a yellow laffy taffy. I own a shop, sell bombies and have had the luxury of vaping over 2000ml of real nana cream at a discount, this does not taste like Bombies Nana Cream at all, I followed the formula to a "t".

#111 by SyberMile, Jan 28. 2016, 14:43

This One Is Missing A Couple Flavors Mine Is Closer But Not Perfect Yet

#112 by SyberMile, Jan 28. 2016, 22:48

you do know this is english site right ...
google translate =
turned full of vomit . Banana Cream (LA) is more like a himoznuyu melon lemonade and interrupting others. I will now try Banana Cream from TPA .

#113 by kierktr, Jan 30. 2016, 23:30

Don't try!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#114 by Ollie89, Jan 31. 2016, 16:34

Everyones palate is different I suppose. Personally I like this, 30ml knocked up and it didn't even make the steeping drawer. Gonna knock up 500ml with the last of my LA flavouring and hopefully I'll see how this matures with time.

#115 by TapersVongue, Feb 11. 2016, 19:39

Love this. One of the first recipes I made, grew tired of 30ml's so I made 120ml. Definitely gets better as it ages, fine as a shake and vape also, but you will mostly get the banana cream taste initially.

#116 by Perly58, Feb 17. 2016, 16:02

Just made 120ml of this exact recipe adding nothing else, how long will that take to steep?

#117 by saxguy, Feb 24. 2016, 17:10

I switched the 7% TFA Strawberry for 4.5% INW Shisha Strawberry since its the only candy strawberry I have, and it is fantastic. I'll still try it with the TFA as soon as I make another order, but if anyone is looking for that more candy/ less ripe strawberry, it is good.

#118 by KoreanMoB, Feb 26. 2016, 09:01

i let it steep for 4 hours 20minutes then vape it on 42.0watts!!!!! If this si what nana's cream taste like.......SIT ON MAH FACE NANA! I love this recipe.... when i get vapers fatigue i switch to this one for a bit. LOVE IT SO SO SO SO SO MUCH~! Thanks Fizz!

#119 by NotoriousPP, Feb 27. 2016, 21:36

I have made about 100ml of this so far, and have loved every batch so far (so have most of my friends)! The banana flavor really comes through the longer you steep! Going to try TPA's Banana Creme later to today and compare the differences!

Thank you for this recipe!

#120 by Perly58, Feb 27. 2016, 21:56

How long did you steep the 100ml?

#121 by KoreanMoB, Feb 27. 2016, 22:16

@perly58 Depending on how thick your VG/PG ratio is. I mix a 200ml and let it steep about 2 weeks. You can shake and vape but the banana wont really come out till 2 weeks or so.

#122 by NotoriousPP, Feb 27. 2016, 22:25

@perly58 I steeped every batch for at least a week, though as @KoreanMoB said, two weeks is ideal.

#123 by Dee, Feb 28. 2016, 11:40

Made this with 3.5% Strawberry Ripe & 3.5% Sweet Strawberry - holy sheeeet! Best juice I've tried so far. Thanks :)

#124 by Perly58, Feb 28. 2016, 16:26

My ratio is 70/30 at 120ml, I tried it at a week and it's a little harsh with not much banana taste, I guess I'll try again in another week.

#125 by 4 rings of fury, Mar 3. 2016, 00:43

One of my favorites but it makes me cough after exhaling. Snooth th at 2 mg but on exhale it feels weird. I've narrowed it down to either the strawberry (since I remember getting something similar from Mistard Milk using strawberry TFA or the Dragonfruit since I remember getting the same feeing from Dragon cream fresh. I'll have to mix single flavor mixes using the strawberry and dragonfruit at diff % and find te culprit. I may just need to lower the percentages a bit. Annnnyways, awesome recipe and I still vape the shit out of it despite the cough lol. Thanks for sharing!

#126 by 4 rings of fury, Mar 3. 2016, 00:52

For anyone with the same issue, I found the culprit. 10% Straw TFA in 3ml base and I get that feeling. After reducing the straw to 5 it nearly went away. Think I'll stick to 5% straw TFA from now on. If it's not enough straw for the recipe I'll add ripe or sweet or FA straw in conjunction with it to make up for it. This is the first flavor that hasn't agreed with me after 4 years of vaping. It's definitely clear that all of our bodies react to these diff flavorings differently. Ok, drama over...thx again for the awesome recipe.

#127 by SS, Mar 3. 2016, 20:15

Grateful for all Mixers. Unfortunately this one I cant vape. Followed perfectly as it is today. Did not add the original recipes Citric acid. Wonder if that is what's missing. I dont taste any banana. Just a chemical taste. Let it air for 36 hours. Did not help. Love the colour though. Did mine at 70vg/30pg 6mg nic. Even after a 3 week steep, no banana taste at all. Shame.. May work for others but not for me.

#128 by SS, Mar 3. 2016, 20:22

Wonders about the flavour difference between LA Banana Cream-White or LA Banana Cream-Yellow? How different would this recipe be using the Yellow version? Thx

#129 by Charlie, Mar 9. 2016, 11:19

I think it is just food colouring added in the yellow version - no flavour difference...

#130 by garnett91, Mar 15. 2016, 15:14

This is a great recipe, liked it alot.

#131 by OrganicCloudz, Mar 18. 2016, 13:35

Has anyone made this without banana cream? Using say Banana and marshmallow or sweet cream? This looks tasty but I don't have any banana cream in at the moment....

#132 by Token143, Mar 20. 2016, 21:58

I replaced TPA strawberry with CAP Sweet Strawberry in 200ml mix and its unvapeable now, it is very harsh and throat hit is like I am vaping 100% PG on subohm, any suggestions for TPA strawberry replacement I don't want to use it coz it contains Ethyl Alcohol.
Where ever I replaced TPA strawberry with CAP its not vapeable, tried Tiger blood, strawberry short cake too with similar results:(

#133 by Token143, Mar 21. 2016, 05:38

Any suggestions?

#134 by OrganicCloudz, Mar 21. 2016, 08:54

You could try some strawberry ripe maybe?

#135 by Token143, Mar 21. 2016, 15:18

I did try with strawberry rip but it came out bit harsh and different smell too, should i use less CAP strawberry or same %?

#136 by OrganicCloudz, Mar 21. 2016, 15:30

Sweet Strawberry is very strong, if you've ever had a 100ml bottle you would know by the smell lol. I would lower the sweet strawberry and use Ripe.

#137 by Token143, Mar 21. 2016, 15:43

How much I lower the sweet strawberry by 2% instead of 7%?

#138 by OrganicCloudz, Mar 21. 2016, 15:51

Maybe try 2% Sweet Strawberry and 3% Ripe? See how that comes out and if needed a little extra after some steep.

#139 by Token143, Mar 21. 2016, 16:16

I don't have ripe right now, If i just use sweet strawberry how much I should use it?

#140 by OrganicCloudz, Mar 22. 2016, 09:08

The thing with sweet strawberry is it's very strong and this is a creamy mix so it might be hard to work with sweet strawberry on this one, maybe just try 2% and then add a few drops after steep if you think it needs some more.

#141 by Brad, Mar 24. 2016, 14:10

what % would you use if you only had flavorah dragon fruit thanks.

#142 by heliontide, Mar 29. 2016, 09:02

I've got a real sweet tooth, so this is easily one of my favourite recipes with around 3% sweetener. No matter what I find or make, I always end up coming back to this recipe.

#143 by OrganicCloudz, Mar 29. 2016, 10:42

So apparently the cheapest I can find Lorann Banana Cream in the UK is £3.00 for 3.7ml on ebay. Does anyone know where I can find this cheaper?

#144 by thrash.cj, Apr 1. 2016, 18:32

#145 by Chris, Apr 2. 2016, 04:37

To those of you who are wondering about strawberry subsitituions: I made about 1000ml of this stuff using various strawberry substitutions; strawberry ripe, sweet strawberry, strawberry inw, organic strawberry tfa, and some combinations of those. I just made my first batch using actual Strawberry (TFA/TPA) and it DOES make a huge difference. Using the TFA strawberry this recipe is just perfect. Sweet and balanced. bombies nana cream doesn't taste anything like banana cream to me, but, it's still an amazing juice and this is a spot on clone with 0 steeping required. The 4oz is cheap af from a couple of the top US vendors. Do it.

#146 by OrganicCloudz, Apr 11. 2016, 15:53

I managed to ship 100ml Banana Cream LA in from a US company called TBD (The Best Damn Liquids). Came with a beautiful unicorn cap that makes it incredibly easy when mixing by weight. Worked out about £17.00 with shipping which isn't so bad.

@thrash.cj I noticed on Chefs Vapour it says 'Laurens Flavours' Is that the same as 'LorAnn'?

@fizzmustard Never tried the original but this stuff is ridiculously good. Remind me of them foamy banana sweets I used to get as a kid.

#147 by Ed0x, Apr 17. 2016, 09:26

This was the recipe that started it all for me I loved this stuff. Only thing I noticed this taste worlds better on older devices for me. Older style tanks do this juice tremendous justice while seems to mute a tad more while chemically when dripped. I played around with VG/PG ratios but didn't change too much for me. Regardless excellent recipe that will always hold a fond place in my DIY experience.

Taste is subjective so this is just my experience.

Also on a side note I highly recommend you try SkiddlzNinja's version if you enjoyed this should find it on reddit somewhere.

#148 by rsimmy, Apr 18. 2016, 02:50

I'd like to say that I originally mixed this up with TFA DX Banana Cream, and it was enjoyable, but the butyric acid gave off a slight vomit aroma. It was off-putting.

But after months of DIY I finally caved and ordered LA Banana Cream, and wow. Not at all what I expected. And not in a good way. LA Banana Cream is straight up Banana Runt or Laffy Taffy, while the TFA was more of a mix between candy banana and ripe banana it seemed.

Sometime I'm the future I'm going to order regular TFA Banana Cream, and maybe that will be what I'm looking for.

I urge everyone to do a comparison, I feel TFA may lend a better flavor.

#149 by Kiwi_Vaper, Apr 20. 2016, 00:23

I have never had the original, but this is seriously amazing. My wife has never smoked or vaped but she loves the aroma of the vapour left behind. Surely deserves 5 stars :)

#150 by Kiwi_Vaper, Apr 20. 2016, 00:25

Oh, I must add that I normally steep my liquids between 3-4 weeks at least. I dont know if that makes a difference here, as I am one of those who keeps a stock of how much liquid I have left and mix well in advance for a 3-4 week steep.

#151 by Hhnguyen504, Apr 23. 2016, 01:06

I mixed this up and I had to fight myself to let it steep. Once I let it steep and started vaping it, I couldn't put it down. Never had the original but this recipe is delicious. If this doesn't taste like the original, I guess I'll never need to find out.

#152 by bearded_puffer, Apr 25. 2016, 23:17

Never tried the original, but I enjoy the taste. However, even at 3mg 30/70 the throat hit is super harsh in my goblin mini at my usual 28-30 watts. I'll let it steep more and see if that changes, but it's unvapeable right now as it burns my throat as if it were 12mg 50/50. If anyone has any tips I'd love to hear them cause I love the flavor of this mix.

#153 by Sweetfa65, May 4. 2016, 00:31

Hi. Im brand new here, and need a hand. Can anyone tell me what the effect on flavour/throat hit would be mixing this at 50/50 pg/vg. This is my usual ratio, and not sure my tanks would cope with 70% vg. Im dying to try this.
Thanks i advance.

#154 by OrganicCloudz, May 4. 2016, 14:12

Hey Sweet,

I would highly doubt that your tank couldn't handle the 50% VG. You might find it has quite a bit of a throat hit and chemical taste using 50% PG as the VG won't be muting as much. It would also depend if your tank is subohm/mouth to lung etc.

Why not give it a go and see?
What tank are you using?

#155 by N, May 4. 2016, 18:39

really nice

#156 by Sweetfa65, May 5. 2016, 00:25

Thanks for your help OrganicCloudz. Mostly I'm using a subtank mini RBA at about 0.6 ohm and occasionally 1.2 ohm factory occ coils. Usually a mouth to lung vaper at 6 mg nic.

#157 by OrganicCloudz, May 5. 2016, 09:57

Go with 70/30. You won't have any problems!

#158 by Sweetfa65, May 6. 2016, 01:17

Thanks mate. I'm happy with that. If worst comes to worst, I can always up the pg later and add some more nic and flavour base. Too easy.

#159 by Lama, May 6. 2016, 03:50

Never tried the original. Made 28/72 2 % nic. on March 25, just had a taste. Pretty good, I wanted sweeter so just added 1,6% marshmallow TPA to the mix. TY for sharing fizzmustard

#160 by venture, May 22. 2016, 11:58

Just wanted to say that this is my go to flavor when I need to make something in a second. Never had the chance to let it steep more than two weeks. Sell about 120ml a week of the juice to my friends. got some 8oz amber bottles in so whipped up a 400ml batch. Can't wait to see what it taste like in a month or so.

#161 by W0WZA, May 25. 2016, 11:55

Did anyone try it with Strawberry Ripe? I really dont enjoy regular Strawberry by TPA. I can't vape it..

#162 by OrganicCloudz, May 26. 2016, 09:57

I wouldn't think it would make much difference @venture. As the banana cream is the main flavour here.

#163 by OrganicCloudz, May 26. 2016, 09:57

Sorry I meant @W0WZA

#164 by W0WZA, May 26. 2016, 11:35

Thanks OrganicCloudz. I will try it with Ripe :)

#165 by richardcope, Jun 1. 2016, 11:42

I had some Banana Cream from TFA sitting on the shelf, and wanted to use it. I searched for the flavor, and found this recipe. By far the best recipe I've found on this site so far. The only things I changed were the brands. I use TFA banana cream, and Capella Dragonfruit. I also make it max VG, and it's a great shake and vape. Thanks so much for the recipe.

#166 by WhiteRaven, Jun 3. 2016, 18:25

Thanks! Very nice light taste!!!

#167 by JTC, Jun 5. 2016, 09:58

Lovely full on flavour
Definitely one of the best I've tasted :D

#168 by jharwin, Jun 17. 2016, 18:51

I always do 200ml of this recipe. So perfect!

#169 by A.D.V., Jun 18. 2016, 08:55

thank you fizzmustard!
steeped 13 days and this juice is great (recomend a 2-4 week steep). sure its reminiscent of banana runts but in a good way! the cream is light, kinda subtle. the dragon fruit is barely there-just boosting and binding the flavors. i taste the strawberry about 2/10% so its in there, but in the background as well. this juice leaves a wonderful amount of moisture in your mouth on the exhale-i read a recent post on reddit of how to create this in a recipie (it is a chemical reaction) and this recipie has it! very pleased :)

#170 by VaporAlchemist, Jun 19. 2016, 18:34

To me, this recipe is super finely-tuned. When I changed the %s to make it more Strawberry heavy, it didn't taste as good. Nothing natural tasting here, you can taste the artificial in this mix, but it is oh-so-good.

It creates the perfect amount of throat hit for me, miniscule but present. I never had the original 'Nana Cream, but I believe the citric acid is still needed to add a little sour. Bravo sir Fizz! This is a staple recipe in my juice cabinet.

#171 by Jay, Jun 27. 2016, 06:40

Excellent shake and vape, just need to make it a little bit more sweeter so I will try to add some marshmallows, or sweetener.

#172 by Ashmiester, Jul 9. 2016, 09:48

made mine with TPA strawberry and cream as haven't got the banana cream still steeping after 3 days

#173 by Smoky , Jul 25. 2016, 16:08

Is there smth. to substitute Dragonfruit? I don't have it now. Or can I exclude it at all?

#174 by JTC, Jul 25. 2016, 18:25

Very nice but I find lacks banana
I've added 1% flavourart banana and now it's popping 👍

#175 by ChibiWanderlust, Jul 26. 2016, 15:37

Noobie question here, I'm new to dyi and I just recently got a couple stuff to start making my own.. Would it be too strange to use Dx Banana Cream from TPA?

#176 by Smoky , Jul 26. 2016, 16:07

Using BC from tpa instead of LA would give you different taste, no so good as with LA. If you will use TPA, reduce percentage to 3%.

#177 by Grubby, Aug 6. 2016, 09:45

Mixed up 10ml by weight, without the citric acid, vaped at 30w in a griffin 25 RTA with a single .4 Clapton.

I get a perfect balance of banana cream and dragonfruit with a strawberry after taste, it's delicious and an adv for me.

Note: Shake all your bottles before using, steep for at least 3 days with the lid on in a dark cool place.

Congrats fizzmustard, excellent recipe!

Thanks and happy vaping!

#178 by gkott78, Aug 20. 2016, 02:58

One of my favorite ADV's. After about 2-3 days, this is amazing. I have already made this at least 3 times, and now I'm doing larger batches at 120ml each so I never run out. Fantastic.

#179 by Paulo, Aug 26. 2016, 12:29

Hi havent tried to make this recipie, since I cant fint the banana cream LA her in my country they only have Banana LA (no cream) is there a way I can go arround with some sweet cream or other thing?

Hi havent tried the original to, since Im from Portugal and no store has it here.

#180 by rodneyb972, Aug 27. 2016, 00:33

Made a 15ml test bottle, let it sit for a week like a good little boy, and long story short another 60ml bottle is steeping as we speak. Thank you OP.

#181 by JTC, Aug 27. 2016, 19:45

I really like this but I'm finding the LA BC too chemical.
I'm thinking I might sub with some fa vienna cream and fa nana for a try?

#182 by Paulo, Aug 28. 2016, 12:18

Jtc quatro do you mean by LA bc too chamical, are u refering to the color out the taste?

#183 by norwegianvaper, Aug 31. 2016, 23:40

I haven't read trough all the comments, it`s getting late here in Norway. But why is the citric acid removed from the recipe? is it better without. I have some banana cream clear coming my way soon, but lack CA.

#184 by hsugr, Sep 19. 2016, 20:01

I have to say this is probably the worst recipe i have made to this day. LA BC tastes too chemical.

#185 by JTC, Sep 19. 2016, 20:17

The taste @Paulo
It has eased with time and the top off for a bit, but it doesn't seem all that to me. It's definitely better with some added fa nana imo

#186 by frank1966, Oct 7. 2016, 19:50

Can someone please tell me how much i need essens each i need if i have 500ml 30/70.

#192 by Gilmbento, Oct 11. 2016, 00:53

BARREJUICE click on the wrench next to the juice name , and then click on "adapt this". Then you can set how much e-juice you want.

#193 by JTC, Oct 21. 2016, 08:20

Tried this again after a 3 month steep
I had added 1.5% fa bano but WOW
It has steeped into an amazing juice
I made it max vg as I do with all my juice and it definitely takes longer steep times this way but we'll worth the wait.
5 stars and thanks 😊

#194 by norwegianvaper, Oct 22. 2016, 11:27

Looks delicious. But i only have VZ (Vaping Zone) Dragoon Fruit. And it is much more potent then the TFA's. VZ suggest 5 % as a starting point for a single flavor mix. And a mixer here on ELR suggest 2.1 % in a mix. What du you think. Make a litlle test batch with VZ DF 2.1%? I tend to go for 60 VG and 8 mg nicotine. How long should I steep it? I use to steep all my juices for 3 to four weeks, unless Tobacco and Custard where I can steep for up to 8 weeks.

#195 by Jaafar , Oct 27. 2016, 01:44

Hi. I want to make this liquid. But without nicotine. How can I delete the ratio of nicotine. I want the proportion of nicotine 0

#196 by norwegianvaper, Oct 28. 2016, 12:07

I asked on the forum about swapping the Dragon Fruit from TFA's to VZ's (Vaping Zone) It is a bit more potent than TFA's DF, and are suggested here to average 2,4 in mix. VZ suggest 5% as a starting point as a stand alone flavor. What would you suggest fizzmustard? Or anyone else for that matter? And by the way, why has the Citric Acid been removed? Is it better without, or is it other reasons? Thank you so much for putting out this recipe. It looks delicious.

#197 by norwegianvaper, Oct 28. 2016, 12:36

Actually VZ suggest 2,5% as a starting point for stand alone. So I think I will go for the median for mixes here on ELR, which is 1%. It's only a 7 ml test batch anyway. But if I would use CA, how do I do that? And how will CA affect the mix? Pros and cons sort of?

#198 by rcromwell92, Nov 1. 2016, 20:42

Where is everyone getting the use of CA in this? I do not see it in the notes or in the actual recipe. Also, are you accounting the % of CA as a percentage of flavoring in the mixture or adding after complete

#199 by dylan338, Nov 5. 2016, 02:20

@rcromwell92 Someone correct me if I'm wrong. But the author of this recipe removed Citric Acid for two reasons: It gunks up coils, and it ruins the flavor after a couple weeks.

#200 by dylan338, Nov 5. 2016, 02:31

I just mixed this for the first time and it's even a great shake-and-vape. I used no Citric Acid, and 100% VG. Even 30 minutes after mixing it's delightful, like an airy fruit gushers, all the flavors mesh well together like a smoothie. I cant wait to see how much better this is after a couple days.

#201 by RaGCaR, Nov 9. 2016, 20:48

Is there anything that will sub for citric acid?

#202 by DDrama, Nov 23. 2016, 17:41

I dont use sucralose for sweetener...I use stevia.
The most common stevia for sweetening fruity liquids is stevia found at walmart made by Pyure, Its pure stevia with trace amounts of citric acid/organic apple cider vinegar. Its in a little white and purple 30ml bottle by the sweeteners, its liquid drops. Stevia doesnt wreck coils like sucralose, plus its made from leaves of a plant and not artificial. I think I will try it 1 drop per 10ml

Anyone try it yet as a CA substitute?

#203 by AbulRulZ, Nov 29. 2016, 13:12

How long does this take to steep?

#204 by Mollifier, Dec 4. 2016, 07:25

Simple and very effective, cant go wrong with strawberry and banana flavors.

Used strawberry ripe TPA and banana cream TPA. still one of the best

#205 by hacked, Dec 6. 2016, 10:07

Somebody did on TPA? What can replace the banana cream (LA)?

#206 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Dec 10. 2016, 18:24

@hacked As discussed above the original is more than likely without a doubt LA Banana Cream due to the coloring. However, TPA/TFA Banana Cream is excellent. I personally blend LA's & TFA's together to make a very believable and authentic banana flavor. IMO, it's cream heavy and therefore the banana needs a bump. So, to answer your question... yes you can make a great banana vape with TFA

#207 by hacked, Dec 12. 2016, 11:05

@Sir-Mix-A-Lot Thank you.

#208 by vinnyfraser, Dec 14. 2016, 02:44

I cut the strawberry by half because I find using anything more then 5% is a waste. Tastes great!!!

#209 by Fuat Abi, Dec 27. 2016, 03:43

Anyone with TPA Banana Cream?

#210 by hacked, Dec 27. 2016, 06:42

@ Fuat Abi Yes, you can replace with Banana Cream (TPA) 5%.

Banana Cream (TPA) 5%
Dragonfruit (TPA) 3%
Strawberry (TPA) 5%

and add strawberries 5%, 7% a lot.

#211 by Fuat Abi, Jan 24. 2017, 17:47

Any alternatives to LA?

#212 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Jan 24. 2017, 18:14

The last 8 comments were specifically about subbing TPA/TFA banana cream for the LA banana cream that's called for in the original recipe...

#213 by Fuat Abi, Jan 24. 2017, 19:35

lol I was drunk when I asked for this. Sorry my fault! I saw the comment now thanks for help! @hacked

#214 by Geb, Jan 28. 2017, 15:47

I quit smoking vaping Unicorn Milk for like 3 months straight. After that I was strawberried out. Haven't touched strawberry in over a 17 months. then I got into DIY and figured for $1 a bottle why not try it again. This juice is delicious. Simply and not overpowering. Great recipe.

#215 by V, Feb 2. 2017, 17:01

So I mixed it with TPA and didn't like it much. Ordered LA banana cream just for this recipe and followed exactly.

Made another version with 3.5 strawberry (TPA) and 3.5 Strawberry ripe (TPA) based on one of the comments above.

Unfortunately on day 1 both versions are not all that was promised.

Will wait a week before trying again. Hope this gets close to the real thing. Not all of 'spot on' comments could be wrong.

Cheers !

#216 by Monotom, Feb 4. 2017, 01:10

I prefer TPA banana cream, it tastes a bit different but equally nice (maybe even better), so it's down to food coloring or no food coloring and I prefer the latter.

Also, I've made this without the citric acid for some time but finally tried adding it recently. I think it is quite an important ingredient and as long as it won't give me a throat itch (as some people report) I'll keep adding it. As for the taste muting aspect: I mix 200 ml batches of the stuff but I only add the acid after transferring some of that to the unicorn bottle I use for refilling/dripping.

I'm pretty sure the Fizzmaestro won't be reading this as he seems to have had enough of the turmoil his recipe caused and there's so many comments already, but just in case I'm wrong: thanks, mister. I really like this simple recipe and I keep coming back to it. It was the first recipe that convinced me that DIY liquid mixing would fully replace buying commercial juices.

#217 by Geb, Feb 10. 2017, 18:19

Love this mix. I would like to tweak it a hair for my personal tastes. I'd like to add just a bit more creaminess to it. What's the best cream to add without making it too sweet (a little bit more sweet would be ok). I have a number creams from various vendors. any input it appreciated.

#218 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Feb 10. 2017, 19:01

@Geb -You can try adding more of the Banana Cream. Seeing how it's very subtle on the banana and heavy on the cream. Others that come to mind are TFA Bavarian Cream or even a touch of CAP Vanilla Custard if you have patience to let it steep a while. Maybe even sweet cream or vanilla swirl if you don't have either of the first two.

#219 by Geb, Feb 10. 2017, 19:22

@Sir-Mix-A-Lot - thanks! as it turns out I have every single one of those flavors (I'm a custard junkie so those flavors would have to be in my stash). I've been adding Sweet cream or CAP VC to just about every juice that I thought needed something more. For variety I think I'll go with the BC or VS. I also have Vienna Cream, Cream Fresh, whipped cream and vanilla whipped cream. I'm still a noob - been mixing only 1 month. don't yet have a good grasp on how the creams can be added. Whatever I decide to add I'm guessing I should keep the total flavor to no more than say 17/18% - is that about right?

#220 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Feb 10. 2017, 19:37

@Geb, you're welcome. Typically the flavoring total is around the 20% range, but only a rough guideline. There is good juice well below 20% and there are a couple over 20% (although rare) that are good as well. It really depends on specific flavor being used and the brand. Some flavors are much more concentrated and/or intense than others.

You're better off making several small batches (5-10ml each). For #1use this recipe and add 1% of your "cream" of choice, #2 2%, #3 2.5%, etc. Don't add nic, and leave them alone for two weeks. After two weeks sample all of them and see which one you like best.

#221 by AHill4168, Feb 21. 2017, 00:50

Got LA banana cream just for this recipe... and hated it. Made me want to vomit. Turns out, on a single flavour test, it was LA banana cream's fault. Subbed 1.5% TFA Ripe banana and 3.5% TFA DX sweet cream (it's what I had on hand) and LOVED it! I'm picking up TFA banana cream to test the recipe with. Thanks!

#222 by jimr, Mar 5. 2017, 18:33

This is the best shit on the planet. And so simple to make. I love it.

if i use a FA strawberry..?
is that ok?

#224 by Guts_Rage, Mar 14. 2017, 02:38

I used bc-tfa and not bad at all, it does remind me of nana cream. Anyone try putting some custard into the mix?

#225 by Couch, Apr 12. 2017, 17:54

1% WL Super Sour seems to brighten it up a bit. Now for some sweet. Marshmallow maybe...

#226 by Kirk 46, Apr 21. 2017, 19:32

Howdy. Thanks for the recipe. Made up 50 mils 4 days ago. Ill report back in a week or 2. Gonna whip up another 10 mils for a buddy today and put it away to steep too.

#227 by Wazzam, Apr 23. 2017, 08:08

Fantastic! Shake and vape ok but with 3 day steep it's incredible

#228 by Tiramolas, Apr 26. 2017, 01:17

Should i use the same percentage with tfa banana cream instead of la??

#229 by V, Apr 26. 2017, 01:50

@Tiramolas : this tastes waayyy better with LA banana. If you can't wait or don't want to get LA, mix same percentage for TFA.

#230 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Apr 26. 2017, 01:53

@V Remember that taste is subjective. Some people would argue that point with you as some actually prefer TFA banana cream over LA banana cream.

#231 by Tobi97dk, Apr 26. 2017, 17:49

This is the best fruity recipe i've ever had. Stick the the recipe dammit, it's awesome

#232 by ScottishJay, May 2. 2017, 16:46

Steeped for 3 weeks and tastes quite nice, not too overpowering or anything. Only thing is, this is my first banana flavor i've ever tried and not really my cup of tea for an every day vape, but nice for a break. Made 250ml so it'll last me a while!

#233 by Tiramolas, May 4. 2017, 11:21

I cant afford la banana cream from my local shop this is why i was wondering, im gonna try it soon though @V

#234 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, May 4. 2017, 14:15

Then try the TPA, don't let anyone scare you away from it. Some people prefer it over LA anyway. And yes, use the same %

#235 by Ricky2410, Jun 4. 2017, 18:26

Where can I get these flavours in uk ?

#236 by Geb, Jun 8. 2017, 17:38

Bombies revisted - this is a good mix. I like my juices "extra creamy" so I added 1.5% sweet cream to the recipe. I had been vaping it in a serpent mini and other single coil rebuildable tanks and thought it was "pretty good. Today I tried it in my kayfun V5 - wow what a difference. It really shines in that tank. 1 ohm twisted 28 g 2.5mm 8 wrap coil. a real flavor build. also, much better well steeped than fresh.

#237 by RaySal, Jun 28. 2017, 12:42

Love this Recipe, this is my ADV... i used TFA Banana Cream for a while, but when i tried LA Banana Cream it was a WOW major difference and much nicer. Basic shake n vape, the longer it steeps the nicer. A week and a half was the longest I could allow it to steep coz it's that damn good. Well done and thanks for the recipe.

#238 by Omnify_vaping, Jun 29. 2017, 22:08

Amazing! I've vaped about 500mls or more of the original and it was an all day vape for me. This is pretty spot on and as a shake and vape it's great, as well as letting it steep a week or so! Thanks for the recipe.

#239 by upandadam, Jul 7. 2017, 18:41

I swear there is a hint of Pineapple in the original. Any thoughts?

#240 by Omnify_vaping, Jul 7. 2017, 18:58

I never tasted pineapple in the original but I haven't had the original in awhile.

#241 by upandadam, Jul 7. 2017, 19:03

Trying to make this for a friend of mine, and thats what he noticed. At any rate, it's a great recipe. We just noticed something missing, and figured that may be it. Thanks buddy.

#242 by Omnify_vaping, Jul 7. 2017, 19:24

You could always add a little bit of pineapple it might change the overall flavor of the recipe but it would still be good. I might try it once I get some pineapple flavorings.

#243 by Sm0ke, Jul 14. 2017, 02:27

Ive found the TPA Banana Cream DX requires 3-4 weeks steep and is wattage sensitive, 30 watts bland 45 watts the banana and strawberry turn up. 51 watts and it becomes mostly strawberry and a hint of banana.

#244 by Octol, Aug 6. 2017, 23:03

Very good right away. Dripping @ 70vg/30pg. Thanx dude.

#245 by jus10, Aug 11. 2017, 19:42

my ADV for years now

#246 by Immortel, Aug 12. 2017, 12:06

Not a bad but I´ve expected something much much better from this overhyped juice! Not an ADV for me but maybe for rotation.

#247 by casualresearch, Aug 17. 2017, 12:59

Just mixed some up, did a couple hot water baths and a lot of shaking then sampled it after a couple hours. Super smooth already with a nice strawberry banana flavor with some cream in the background. I love how simple it is with just a few flavorings, I hate having to buy 6+ flavors just to try out a recipe and find out I don't like it. The banana cream is the best I've tried, I had some TFA in the past that was super harsh and just... strange. This stuff is pretty on point. Nice juice to have in rotation, definitely try it out especially for how simple and cheap it is. Thanks for sharing!

#248 by Lantana, Aug 26. 2017, 10:43

Mixed it up as the original recipe. Really enjoying this one. Thanks!

#249 by Beshig, Sep 8. 2017, 07:50

Steeped for a week and it is great. Always going to have this mixed up.

#250 by invisitr0n, Sep 24. 2017, 01:46

Shake and Vape review: 3% nicotine -> a little harsh (not bad) after mixing, you can taste the bananas and maybe strawberries a little, overall its good. Different than most banana cream/banana candy type flavors. I taste 0 dragonfruit, but i assume it is used to enhance the overall flavor. I think this one is worth trying if you like banana vapes, for me it's not an all day vape, but I never ADV banana juices. I will update after 1-2 weeks of steeping.

#251 by Ruan, Sep 30. 2017, 11:12

This is very good as a shake and vape. Havent let it steep yet. Thanks fizzmustard

#252 by Carol 3, Oct 2. 2017, 01:15

Has anyone used capella flavors for this recipe?

#253 by CODYR2550, Oct 27. 2017, 22:49

Pretty great. Just mixed it up but had to sub the bananna creme with cap bananna 2% and fa fresh creme2%. Will be ordering the bananna creme soon so I can see how close i got. Still excellent though.

#254 by Has01, Nov 1. 2017, 10:41

Really good after 1 week

#255 by Has01, Nov 5. 2017, 10:53

very good

#256 by Who am I , Nov 15. 2017, 20:26

Cannot say enough good about this recipe! Delicious perfection!!

#257 by DarthVape, Nov 24. 2017, 15:45

This stuff is lovely after a 3 week steep love it!

#258 by cheykan, Nov 29. 2017, 21:53

Just made this according to recepie.. i can barely taste anything at all :(

#259 by WorkingTurk, Dec 21. 2017, 19:13

can i use tpa banana cream istead la?

#260 by StiVi, Dec 25. 2017, 10:31

Very good recipe. Fruity flavor. Good ADV.
From time to time it seems to sweet to me... so maybe next time I wil just dial the % down a little bit.

Thanks again!

#261 by Marcil802, Dec 26. 2017, 19:01

Damn just made 60/40 by accident 😭 30ml and out of banana

#262 by Mikes mix, Jan 3. 2018, 17:42

This is a good shake n vape. I do taste more of the strawberries then the Banana, maybe it's because of the hight percentage. I added about 2% of ethyl maltol and a few drops of sweetness by FA. Tks for this great S&V

#263 by sdaron, Jan 3. 2018, 21:48

First time mixing taste good.. Thanks

#264 by NastyNate, Jan 7. 2018, 00:39

so simple. so delicious.

#265 by Robin, Jan 23. 2018, 18:08

I made this using Bano (banana) (FA) and it was amazing after 10 days!

#266 by Asylumsix, Feb 22. 2018, 01:09

Switched to LA Banana Cream Colorless a while back, went to mix this up and instead of BCC I accidently added Cap Vanilla Custard v1, tasty mistake but it is missing something, it's only been two weeks but it's pretty decent, VC v1 takes a while to steep so going to give it another week and may add 1-2% more VC to bring it a bit more into the realm of what I enjoy.

#267 by spamhit, Feb 25. 2018, 05:56

In the original reddit clone thread he edited his post to leave out the acid in case anyone is confuse by it being gone:

“I no longer recommend using citric acid in this recipe; it tends to mute the flavor over time and isn't very gentle on coils. Up to you whether you use it or not. I personally don't.”

#268 by BeastyVap, Mar 5. 2018, 18:41

Hi, why is necessary 70vg?, taste is much stronger with 70pg/30vg, isn't it?

#269 by Asylumsix, Mar 5. 2018, 19:16

@BeastyVap Because the original was High VG if I remember right.

#270 by BeastyVap, Mar 5. 2018, 19:22

Thank you @Asylumsix! today i will start my recipes for the first time. I saw that many recipes showed here are with more VG, i will try this recipe in the 3 versions to experience by myself the best taste 30/70 50/50 70/30

#271 by MTL sLOVEnia, Mar 6. 2018, 15:35

even without the citric acid this is my 1st strawberry juice I can vape all day long. I was questionning myself why people like strawberry so much ... Strawanna case and Mother's unicorn that I've both steeped for over a month now ... they keep that funny industrial, chemistry taste.

But, the Nana's cream - after a week I'm sipping it down like nuts. A bit strong in % of flavours but very smooth and sweet.

9/10.

#272 by lukiane, Mar 10. 2018, 10:46

@BeastyVap if you are new to mixing, watch some videos at youtube at first! 70 pg is too much, throat hit will be so hard, it can get you to cry. don't go lower than 60% vg, and can try 50/50 if you want to use it in MTL, otherwise it would have bad TH as well.

#273 by VinnyG, Apr 1. 2018, 20:54

what % citric acid people used? and can you use ACV instead?

#274 by N4, Apr 3. 2018, 19:07

Muito bom. Tem gosto de banana madura.

#275 by troyniss, Apr 4. 2018, 13:05

First time I had Bombies NC, I was hooked.

Found this recipe and had to make it.

This is spot on Nana'Creme. Also, the 3 flavors are commonly used in other recipes which makes it very convenient. I always have a 120ml of this steeping and another 120ml on hand.

I mix at MAX vg, besides the flavoring and a 50/50 nicotine blend at 1.5mg/ml.

I dont bother adding any citric acid or sweeteners as I like it without any other ingredients than the 3 flavors.

Give it a go, you wont be disappointed.

#276 by Pbuomp, Apr 25. 2018, 05:54

Thanks for the recipe. One of my favorites.

#277 by cocoliqi, Jun 23. 2018, 19:29

very nice recipe, I made a bunch of "top-rated" recipes using strawberry and don't enjoy any except for this, so glad my vendor threw in the banana cream as a bonus because I didn't expect to enjoy the flavour so much, thanks I think I'll just make a big batch with the rest of that strawberry bottle! flavours hold up ok after a long steep?

#278 by Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Jun 24. 2018, 00:40

What vendors throw in a "bonus"? I've never got one and I've been buying concentrates from several vendors for a couple years now.

#279 by cocoliqi, Jun 24. 2018, 06:15

Juice Factory in Australia, both my orders have included a 4-5ml concentrate sampler

#280 by Asylumsix, Jun 24. 2018, 06:24

Most vendors I deal with will throw in some samples if your order is over 100$

#281 by Dork1, Jul 8. 2018, 18:33

Don't know how to give stars yet.. Am new. Made this vape and after a 3 day steep was great! Will make again! Thanks!

#282 by christophe1982, Feb 1. 2019, 12:53

i ordered la banana cream to try this recipe. received it and now i find out there are two types, color and colorless la b cream...? are they the same?

#283 by christophe1982, Feb 1. 2019, 12:55

oh, and i m going to mix on 50% vg. any suggestions in %ratio to drop flavors? 20%30?

#284 by christophe1982, Feb 6. 2019, 09:58

mixed this with 50/50pg/vg 1mg nic.
la b cream 5% ->4%
dragonfruitvtpa 3%-> 2,4%
strawberry tpa 7%->5,6%
shake en vape in hadaly is little sweetness and strawberry. might be banana on the back but hard to define.pretty soft and balanced for now.gonna try to let it steep now.

#285 by sirCastic, Feb 7. 2019, 11:22

i can't find anywhere the la banana cream in my country. I have dx banana cream (tpa). Can i use this here? Can someone help me with the percentages? noobie here

#286 by Intricate27, Mar 11. 2019, 13:15

Tbh this was one of the first recipes I used in my DIY adventure but I have to say I was not impressed with this recipe. Each time I make it I found the banana to be overpowering while expecting there to be some creaminess to the texture. I've messed around with this recipe some trying to add bavarian cream and reduce the banana cream but haven't found something that works yet.

#287 by christophe1982, Mar 11. 2019, 14:41

tbh i dont like the la banana cream neither tpa strawberry. think next time gonna try with tpa banana cream and inw strawberry or red touch fa..

#288 by Linthorn, Apr 26. 2019, 22:28

Made this at 70/30, 10mg nic, sampled in a Nord pod and a Zenith mtl tank. Tasted quite bad after a couple days and I was sure it was going to be thrown out. After a week it was sharp and rough so I thought I would have to dilute it. After two weeks it settled and is very tasty. The banana isn't so much like the fruit, it's more like the hard candies. Love to see how it continues to mature, but I'm definitely making more of this. Nice fresh tasting mtl vape.

#289 by Krs1det, Jun 15. 2019, 14:34

Great Vape

#290 by Ricardoct, Jun 18. 2019, 23:04

I dont have banana cream,but I do own banana (tpa),cream fresh (fa), can I mix with it ?

#291 by Asylumsix, Jun 19. 2019, 01:25

@Intricate27 This recipe just isn't made for todays vape gear, in a ce4 or a protank this recipe made much more sense since the crappiness of the gear only produced a minimal amount of flavor, I've messed with this recipe for years, I really like the idea of the recipe but with todays gear it really is missing something and has way too much of others, it needs significantly overhauled, I think the dragonfruit could probably be completely dropped at this point because it does seem to throw off the creaming of the banana cream

LA banana cream.
TPA strawberry
Cap sweet strawberry
and maybe a little bit of TFA whipped cream would probably get me to where I'd want to be with a SB/C

#292 by HJQuinzel, Jul 30. 2019, 10:19

The bomb! :D Thanks

#293 by BrunoSiller, Mar 11. 2020, 04:41

Shake and vape looks amazing, lets wait 4 days, and try again! Awesome!

#294 by Alsonaidi , May 17. 2021, 18:36

Very good 7-10

#295 by jimr, Dec 19. 2021, 17:19

Been vaping this for years. ADV in fact. The flavor percentage is a little low for me, but I also think that might be why I don't get tired of it. Nothing is overwhelming. I've also tried it with a bit of Super Sweet, which is not bad.

#296 by zemzemkoko, Mar 16. 2022, 17:52

top 3 recipe so far

#297 by WinterTaco, Jul 12. 2022, 00:23

Awesome. Can't get enough of it

#298 by Jordi, Sep 8. 2022, 22:40

I dont got banana cream la so i replaced it with 14% dx banana cream tpa, unfortunately not so good ;(

#299 by Ken O'Where, Sep 9. 2022, 03:25

@Jordi. Why would you use 14%? Try it at the same % as the recipe.

#300 by Jordi, Sep 9. 2022, 05:47

Oh i thought i had to look at the recommened dosage of the aroma becouse la says around 4% and tpa 12%, but i will forget that from now hahahah oops.. goin to make that today!

#301 by Ken O'Where, Sep 9. 2022, 08:16

Yikes, hehe. Yeah it can be a bit confusing, many of the ratings/percentages for older flavors are from a time the hardware we used was a bit more primitive. If you ever have any questions come on over to the forums, we are always happy to help. Happy mixing Jordi
