DIY 🍦 Soft Servin' Up Pineapple 🍍 #SSMS ejuice recipe

This recipe was adapted from: tjek.nu/r/zaxP

Inspired by a Vape Kitchen juice from River Supply Co. All previous attempts had been constructed around INW's Pineapple, but after trying VTA's SugarLoaf, IT became obvious that IT needed to be the star here. Not overly complex, but a great pairing of a Juicy Pineapple, and a creamy Soft Serve Ice Cream.

The construction was fairly simple with LB's VIC and TPA's Vanilla Swirl as the foundation for the Soft Serve, with a SMIDGE of Hangen's French Vanilla Ice Cream, and only to bolster the base, anything higher would pull it off of Soft Serve.

VTA's Sugarloaf really is a Pineapple powerhouse, and it carried the weight here, with a little pop from VTA's Fizzy Sherbet, and some high end punch from CAP's Juicy Lemon.

Not bad, not bad at all. I can't answer to subbing as it took a while to get it to this point. To push the Pineapple further, you could add 0.5% of VTA's Pineapple Juice.

Steep Time ??? You'll have to decide. Decent off the mix, but the Soft Serve will up steep, and improve after a short 1 week steep.

Original Recipe:

0.60% Fizzy Sherbet (VTA) * 0.40% French Vanilla Ice Cream (Hangsen) * 0.40% Juicy Lemon (Cap) * 2.95% Sugarloaf Pineapple (VTA) * 3.00% Vanilla Ice Cream (LB) * 1.00% Vanilla Swirl (TPA)

Amen! Just put the recipe up on my mix day! Excellent off the shake but I'll steep out the creams. Kudos SD

Thank you for sharing SD, looks tasty. Hopefully I can get a few minutes to put this together tonight! As I really like sugarloaf I bet this IS tasty. Typically if I use sugarloaf I pair it up with vso pineapple, so I might play around with the combo in here? Again tyvm buddy.

If this is anything like the original that you released it’s going to be banging. Thanks for sharing mate.

Thanks a lot guys. James, same as the original, had to re-release with the SSMS tag for the show.

I just "finished" the steeping process for this recipe and WOW. Not only is this delicious & complex but this recipe and your Golden Grahams recipe opened my mind like a DMT trip. I mean really blew me away.

I suggest a 9 days to 2-week steep. How the cream changes during the steep and where the pineapple fits into the mix is mind-blowing to my previously ignorant brain. Sure it's still good 3 days after or 6 days but when you let this thing sit without messing with it - it really changes in a big way - and for the better. I'm stunned by how much time it must have taken to achieve this level of flavor knowledge. I've been trying to figure out Don Juan by Kinds Crest (graham cracker, butter pecan, chocolate) and this recipe opened my mind up in how WRONG I've been and how much more sophisticated you can get with these flavors. I still have no idea where to start with my clone quest but now I'm armed with far more informed knowledge. Phenomenal recipe. Given you're such a S'mores nut, if you haven't tried King's crest Don Juan - your mind will be blown.
Thanks for sharing SD.

@MasterShake, first, thanks a lot for the kind words, AND, checking out both this, and my Golden Grahams recipes. With 4 creams, more time will def. improve them, especially in the blending OF them, which does further the Soft Serve.

I appreciate the kind words of "flavor knowledge", and that may be PARTIALLY TRUE, hehe, but not entirely. If my knowledge was BETTER, it wouldn't have taken soo many fails to get it right !!!!

Lots and lots of fails had to happen, especially for this one AND the GG, to get them right. Luckily you don't get to see all of the fails, just the finish line. I am very happy to hear that if nothing less, reading, or trying my (or other) recipes, helps in opening you up to newer, maybe different approaches to mixing. Outstanding !!!

I AM a self diagnosed S'mores junkie, but have never tried King's Crest Don Juan, but it sure sounds like I SHOULD .....

*****The reserve version of the popular Don Juan butter pecan pie flavor, Don Juan Reserve is a graham cracker crusted chocolate butter pecan pie, topped with a dollop of sweet whipped cream.
Primary Flavors: Pecan Pie, Chocolate, Graham Cracker, Whipped Cream, Reserve********

@SessionDrummer If you can improve this recipe and GG, that'll be impressive because those 2 are outstanding. I've never eaten GG but the juice is delicious, I made a big batch this weekend. I'm going to try and use the GG as a stone and build on top of it - like add lemon or strawberry but those are a little boring so I was tinkering with a corn/bread variation, like cornbread pudding.

As per Don Juan, my latest recipe turned out to be a decent accident but still not anywhere near what I'm trying to get.

This is a much more accurate description but I'm still waiting on the steep. Too much chocolate so far.

Don Juan is the original recipe and it's what they built their brand on. Don Juan Reserve has a very prominent & unbeatable Graham note - it's the star attraction IMO. Then comes the buttered pecan combined with a distinctive yet subtle nutty flavor that's not coming from the Butter pecan alone, it's not like hazelnut or peanut butter but stronger & more realistic like WF honey roasted nuts or beer nuts.

The mouthfeel/marshmallow cream/chocolate sits in there so damn well that it's maddening trying to figure out. It has a hint of maple but I'm not sure if that's just imagination or not. The coconut comes in last and is always on the exhale for some reason but the coconut flavor is hit & miss - you don't notice it until you get a rare taste that surprises you - every 3th or 4th hit.

I thought Nanaimo Bars would be the secret killer ingredient but if it is, I didn't use it right. The graham flavor smells very much like TPA cheesecake GC & FA Graham crust but I tried them all, I can never get the Graham right - not even close. The other flavors I've had very close "accidents" that taste great - some keepers.

Kings Crest also does Marshmallow (KINGS KRSPY) amazingly well, so that might be in Don Juan too. Truly the most difficult commerical recipe I've come across and the best S'mores recipe I've tasted - even though that's not how they market Don Juan - the Gramam cracker and chocolate are so well done here, I just think S'mores.

The Don Juan reminded me of your GG recipe, using Waffle cone, that's why I mentioned it. I think they use flavors that IMPLY butter pecan pie but I'm almost certain there's no 'butter pecan pie' flavoring used. Pie, yes (graham, cream, moist). Butter Pecan - yes but blended well into the Graham as the Chocolate is much more prominent. Whipped cream? I don't know, but a very dense cream and/or marshmallow was used, they don't mention coconut, it's in there for sure but sparingly. No Icecream, more like S'mores pie?
