GD Vape Nerds!
We’re officially into 2026. But before we get too deep into the year, I wanted to take a minute to look back and give some props to the vape juices that got the most use in my pod systems last year.
All of these were used extensively in the Vaporesso XROS Pro 2 – my daily driver since it dropped.
If you’re rocking a pod system and you like solid flavor, balanced sweetness, and zero coil-killers, this list is worth a look.
This one’s minty, but not obnoxious.
- Classic menthol meets fresh mint leaf – more garden than candy aisle.
- A soft, refreshing sweetness, not sugary or harsh.
- Perfect for resetting the palate or chain-vaping without burning out.
This was my go-to when I got tired of desserts or candy bombs. It’s clean, it’s crisp, and it doesn’t kill coils every 3 days.
If you’ve ever wanted a strawberry milkshake vibe in a vape, this one nails it.
- Sweet, juicy strawberry that tastes more like fruit than candy.
- A milky-ice-cream base that makes it feel more dessert than fruit bomb.
- No heavy custard aftertaste – just smooth, creamy sweetness.
Great for night-time vaping or whenever you’re after that comfort food feeling, minus the calories.
This one lives in the “fun” zone.
- A fluffy mix of blue raspberry and pink vanilla – yes, it’s sweet.
- Slightly fizzy vibe that makes it taste like carnival candy.
- Definitely on the sweet tooth end, but never syrupy or gross.
I kept reaching for this when I was bored of fruits but didn’t want anything rich or heavy.
Skittles in vape form? Basically.
- Tangy, sweet-and-sour fruit medley.
- No one fruit dominates – it’s a rainbow party.
- Zero menthol, no cream, just straight-up candy vibes.
This one cuts through vaper’s tongue like a boss. If you like high-flavor, no-fuss blends, it’s a must.
It’s mint gum. In vapor. And it works.
- Spearmint-forward with a sugar-laced chill.
- Sweeter and softer than Cool Mint, closer to Juul Mint.
- That “just popped a fresh stick of gum” feeling, minus the chewing.
I alternated this with Cool Mint when I wanted a sweeter hit. Also helped me quit gum, weirdly.
Loud. Punchy. Tart.
- Strong blue razz profile, very much candy not fruit.
- Sour edge with lingering sweetness.
- Great if you’ve got vaper’s fatigue or love aggressive flavors.
This is the kind of juice you either love or hate. I clearly loved it, because I vaped through two 30mLs in about a week.
Want ice with a side of mint?
Icy cold menthol layered with a slightly sweet mint.
Sharper than Cool Mint, cleaner than Spearmint.
Very much a premium “fresh” menthol-style vape.
Best for those summer days when you just need something cold, clean, and potent.
That's it. My most-used vape juices for 2026, wrapped. What about you? What were your go-to flavors and brands? Hit reply and let me know!
Peace.
