Test 01 - 14 days steep time - Very fruity green juice. The lemon strengthens the apple, the dragon fruit blends with guava to give the red fruit backbone and cactus gives the sweet acidity.
This recipe was adapted from:

These were the inspiration for this recipe. I always have to beg the lady at the Chinese restaurant for a handful of these every time I go. If you haven't had them, they're basically just a sweet, almost sour guava candy.
If you guys know me, you know literally 90% of my recipes have some sort of cream in them. I wanted to branch out and make a unique candy flavor this time, and I think I've nailed that down pretty well here.
FLV Pink Guava was my first choice for the base note. It's a super strong flavor, resembling grapefruit if used above 1%. I wanted to keep this flavor at a low percentage and just build other flavors around it.
I thought lime might be an interesting addition, and I've been loving INW Lime for any sort of lime hint in a recipe. It tends to overpower a mix even at .5%, so I stuck with .25% for just that hint that I wanted.
CAP Lemon Lime is just used to boost the citrus flavors. It's a pretty light flavor, and 4% seemed to be right where I wanted it.
INW Dragonfruit helps add uniqueness and boost the tropical flavor a bit.
INW Cactus for juiciness.
FA Fuji for a little more brightness.
If I had to describe this in one word, it would probably be "green".
Shake & vape! Enjoy!
