Pairing good food with good beverages has been around for decades, and now vape has been invited to the table. Due to the number of growing vape flavours on the market – from fruits to desserts, to bourbon and whiskey – the opportunities for pairing across the menu are endless.
Calling on all vaping “foodies” to give this trend a try. If you are hosting a dinner party or been invited to one, introduce this fun activity to your vaping friends.
Vape pairing 101:
Do:
- Pair the main flavour of a meal or beverage with a complementary vape flavour.
- Pair vape flavours with things that naturally go together i.e. Chocolate & Mint.
Don’t:
- Overdo the flavours; less is more.
