What is Dragon Fruit

[DrMark]

Got given Northern Lights by Bomb Bombz by at lovely member at a vape meeting.  Apparently it is a USA juice. Never heard of it personally are there any other versions about or equivalent in uk?

[Greg]

Not sure but I make a juice, Sucker Punch, which uses Dragon Fruit. It's lovely, I got the recipe from Tom and it's in his Sig if you fancy making it

You see Dragon Fruit quite often in London shops. Like many other exotic fruits, such as breadfruit and cape gooseberries, they're a bit bland despite their curious and glamorous appearance. I have to say I didn't recognise the flavour of Northern Lights as Dragon Fruit, mind you I didn't recognise it in Decadent Vapours juice, despite it being called "Dragon Fruit". I guess they must boil it down a good deal to intensify the flavour...

I had a mango flavour,I dread to think what amount I put in the bottle but it damaged a plastic tank straight away,I couldn't even vape it.Went down the drain

I have just mixed a different brand of mango and it smells nice. Not toxic like the last one

Hope you have better luck this time bubbleglass.

Berry fruits I tend to enjoy more . . . Blackcurrant, blackberry, raspberry etc.

My 2 favourite fruit combo's are Capella's Harvest Berries & CCW's Forest Fruits, always taste good to me.

Hope you enjoy it! It does need a good couple of weeks to steep, to be at it's nicest, unlike many fruits . . . the colour deepens quite considerably in that time.

What percentage did you mix at bubbleglass?

Thanks for the heads up about steeping. I mixed at 15% guessed it would be similar to other capella

I've so derailed this thread sorry ><

I tend to like it at 20% . . . but your tastes might be different, so 15% is a good place to start.

Wouldn't worry about the thread, we've just progressed on with the ' fruity ' discussion.

Funnily enough I just ate my first Dragon Fruit this afternoon.

Saw it at the supermarket and thought it looked nice

I can only describe it as like watermelon, but with a sweet sort of raspberry edge to it - very nice though.
