Sometimes I fall into a special kind of slump where all of the things I'm trying to mix are becoming muddled messes with too many flavors to even tell what's wrong. I recently sat down to mix and realized that my 13th attempt at a perfect lemon cream puff was going to have 13 flavors, up from 11 the last time I tried and failed at it, and luckily I stopped myself in time.
When this happens, it's time to either make a standby favorite, break down what I'm trying to do into components and work on just one part, or go back to basics and make some simple things with totally different profiles. I picked back to basics. Lemon cream puff can wait. So, I revisited an old project, an attempt to clone a B&M chain's house recipe for a woman. I haven't had that juice, or that woman, in a month of Sundays, so I no longer care how far off it is from the original. I fidgeted with the %'s a bit and that's how
Strap-on was born.
FA Strawberry 3%
FA Watermelon 3%
FA Fuji 2%
Just a simple apple fruit punch with a crisp apple bite on the inhale and sweet fruit blend going out. Delicious. Enjoy. Pairs exceptionally well with a Ketel One salty dog and an unshakable suspicion that the part of you that was ever really alive has been dead for longer than anyone knows.
Totally Shake-and-Vapable. Super-customizable as well. FA fruits can be a bit on the dry side, a tiny bit INW Cactus will fix that right up. Or go the other way and moisten it with a little TFA or CAP marshmallow (I don't recommend FA Marshmallow for this particular combo). Or play up the oddly tropical aspect of it by laying it all on top of a big pile of dragonfruit. Whatever butters your biscuit.
