I made this recipe to try out a flavour that I bought only because it was on sale (WF - Pixie Stick) and thought Inawera Raspberry Concentrate would go well with it. Little did I know I was belting out a near perfect clone of the famous Aussie juice, Fanboy. Its missing something very slightly though - that full mouthed feel at the back of the tongue - the feel you get at the back of the mouth when first chewing a fresh bubble gum. Most commercial juices have a sweetener, so may be a small percent of sweet cream (or may be candy floss will) will do the trick - but I haven't tried that. Even without that, this is darn close to Fanboy. Mo, am I close ?

Edit 13/4 : The notes above were based on SNV. On a 3 day steep it is developing a more fuller taste. I have made another batch today and added some super sweet - see how I go. The INW Raspberry concentrate I used was this : https://imgur.com/a/kXGxGc5

Edit 27/4 : I made another batch and added 10% Super sweet. SNV was nice. However. after steeping for a week, I find the flavours over all have waned. I don't know how thats possible.

For someone interested in taking this recipe further, I posted this in the reddit forum and FanBoys creator has shared more hints on this recipe : www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/comments/ftamm6/april_2020_recipe_thread/fo97o96?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x

Since the creator of the recipe doesn't think this is a clone, but I feel this is very very close, I am going to rename this to a shallow clone (programming reference)

For now, I will stop after adding a bit of LA colourless Raspberry and see how I go. Shall get to it some time soon.
