Does your custard already have nicotine in it?
If so.....anything you add to it will reduce the nicotine and you'd need to figure out how much more to add to get to your preferred level.
Also, you'd need to calculate for example how much Graham Cracker to add....not as easy as it sounds as you'd have to work out what 10% of the FINAL volume would be.
It's honestly simpler to start from scratch if your custard has nic in it already.
I'm going to question that recipe too.
Graham Cracker is there twice......making your overall ingredients come in at 37%......which seems very high?

To be honest tr1cky, I would use the following for a starting point:- Cap VC - 12% Graham - 8% Vanilla - 3% Sweetener - 1% If you make up a small bottle first, or a couple varying the ingredients a bit, and then note carefully what you've used!, you can always add more to the next mix, but anything over 20% starts getting into the overkill zone. I used to think that the more flavouring the better, but now err on the side of caution and invariably get better results. Bear in mind that whatever you do mix with those flavours will need at least a month of steeping. Only one way to find out - get mixing
