How to choose a vape juice flavor: start with a flavor family you love, then pick up to 3 flavors in the Flavor Mixer

How to Choose a Vape Juice Flavor With Our Flavor Mixer

Wondering how to choose a vape juice flavor? Start with the foods and drinks you already love. Most juices fall into a few flavor families, such as fruit, dessert, menthol and tobacco. When you know which ones you like, our Flavor Mixer finds every juice in stock that has those notes. Our best-selling flavors and popular flavor combinations also show where other vapers start.

The short version

  • Pick a flavor family you already like, such as fruit, dessert, candy or tobacco.
  • Decide on ice, since iced juices add menthol or a cooling agent for a cold exhale.
  • Choose freebase or salt nic to match your device.
  • Open our E-Juice by Flavor page and mix up to 3 flavors.
  • Still not sure where to start? Try one of our best-selling flavors or a popular mix.

Start with a vape juice flavor family

The easiest way to choose a vape juice flavor is to think about what you like to eat and drink. If you love fresh fruit, for example, start there. If you have a sweet tooth, try dessert or candy instead. We sort every bottle into ten flavor families:

FamilyWhat it tastes like
FruitSweet fruit such as strawberry, apple, mango and peach
BerryBlueberry, raspberry, blackberry and mixed berries
MelonWatermelon, honeydew and cantaloupe
CitrusLemon, lime, orange and grapefruit
DessertBakery and creamy notes, such as custard, cake, cookies, pastry, ice cream and vanilla
CandySweets such as gummies, sour candy, blue razz, cotton candy and bubblegum
BeverageLemonade, slushies, fruit punch, soda, milk and coffee
MentholPure menthol and mint, as well as iced versions of other flavors
TobaccoClassic tobacco, as well as tobacco with vanilla, caramel or nuts
NutAlmond, hazelnut, peanut butter, pistachio and walnut

Most juices sit in more than one family. A strawberry kiwi ice, for example, counts as fruit and as menthol. Knowing your flavor families makes it easier to find the flavor combinations you like.

Our best-selling vape juice flavors

Still can’t choose a vape juice flavor? Start where most of our customers do. These are our best-selling flavors from the past 12 months, ranked by sales:

Dessert leads by a wide margin, while strawberry is our top single fruit. You’ll also find these best-selling flavors in our Shop by Flavor menu.

Should your vape juice flavor be iced?

Iced juices add menthol or a cooling agent, so the exhale feels cold. Some vapers love that chill, while others want the flavor on its own. We list every iced juice under its main flavor and also under Menthol.

In the mixer, the Ice filter has three settings. Any shows everything, Iced shows only cold juices, and No ice leaves them out.

Freebase or salt nic?

The same flavor often comes in two types, and the right one depends on your device:

  • Freebase: 60ml, 100ml and 120ml bottles, mostly in 3mg or 6mg. Use it in a sub-ohm tank.
  • Salt nic: mostly 30ml bottles from 20mg to 50mg. Use it in a pod kit or a low-watt vape instead.

Our freebase vs salt nic guide covers the details, while PG and VG explained looks at thick and thin juices. Once you know which you need, set Type to Freebase or Salt nic in the mixer.

Every bottle we sell carries the warning the FDA requires: “This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.”

How to use the Flavor Mixer

The Flavor Mixer sits at the top of our E-Juice by Flavor page, and the Shop by Flavor menu opens it too. It helps you choose a vape juice flavor, because it only shows juices that have every note you pick. It also works the same on a phone or a computer.

  4. Shop the results. Best sellers come first, 8 at a time, so tap Show 8 more to see the rest.

Find your vape juice flavor in other brands

The Flavor Mixer is also on our juice pages. Under the Add to Cart button, a More like this box picks one or two flavors from that juice. Really Berry by Naked 100, for example, shows “Find every freebase juice with Blueberry and Lemon.” When you tap it, the mixer opens with those flavors picked. It also sets the juice’s type, freebase or salt nic, and for an iced juice, Ice is set to Iced too.

Popular flavor combinations to try

Tips to choose a vape juice flavor you’ll enjoy

  1. Start with what you know. A flavor you enjoy as food or a drink is an easy first pick.
  2. Change one thing at a time. Add a second flavor, or try the iced version, but not both at once.
  3. Read the flavor notes. Each product page lists its notes, so check them before you buy.
  4. Match your device. Freebase suits a sub-ohm tank, while salt nic suits a pod kit.
  5. Follow the crowd. Our best-selling flavors and popular mixes are a good place to begin, too.
  6. Save your mix. Bookmark the mixer once you find flavor combinations you like.
