Juiced Up: Infuse Juiciness in your Vapes

Wayne

Adding juiciness to eliquids is something mixers have been doing since the dawn of the sport. There’s an inherent need for “mouthfeel” in eliquids, and for those who enjoy fruits and candies, the next logical evolution is to create a mouthfeel filled with juiciness.
