Mānuka - A kiwi recipe


So every week I make 2 new 60MLs for a friend, and every week he asks me to make a steeper and a SnV. This week he asked me for a bakery, and a kiwi recipe - with the kiwi, he said, surprise me. This is how this recipe was born, and I think it might be one of the most enjoyable recipes I've ever created.I knew that Kiwi was going to be the star of the show, but I wanted to bring some supporting characters into the mix. I was trying different variations of tropical fruits and the no brainers like strawberry when I decided it might be nice just to make a simple Kiwi and apple recipe. I played around with a few different things and this is what I settled on, and I'm really enjoying this iteration.FA Kiwi - 3%FA Fuji - 1%This was a nice base to work with, but I wanted to punch it up a bit and I assembled the supporting cast. I decided to pair the apple with a pear, one that I had recently purchased, and hadn't really played around with a lot. Inawera Pear. Boy was I sleeping on this concentrate, it's truly amazing.Enter INW Pear at 1%.Accents? Cool lets go with the usual suspects, I wanted this to be juicy so I added INW Cactus at 0.5%. I wanted to make those fruits pop so I threw in 0.5% TFA Dragonfruit. Pretty solid so far. This tasted great. Almost done. Then I decided I wanted to add a touch of one last thing to set this recipe apart from just another fruit mix. Something to call it my own. And here comes the star of the show in my opinion, that adds a whole new delicious dimension to the mix. 0.1% FA Honey.So Here is my final rendition, something I think tastes great - I hope you all will give me your criticisms and critiques and let me know what you think.MānukaFlavor HouseFlavor%FAKiwi3%FAFuji1%INWPear1%TFADragonfruit0.5%INWCactus0.5%FAHoney0.1%Mānuka honey is produced by introduced European honey bees (Apis mellifera) foraging on the mānuka or tea tree (Leptospermum scoparium) which grows uncultivated throughout New Zealand and southeastern Australia. via /r/DIY_eJuice https://ift.tt/2qsWkKm
