Nic Nic Ice Shot 70VG 18mg

Description - Nic Nic Ice Shot 70VG 18mg

The Nic Nic Cool Ice 18mg Nic Shot is an ice-flavoured nicotine booster designed to be mixed into shortfill e-liquids, not vaped on its own. Made in the UK by Nic Nic, a brand recognised for quality nicotine extraction, it delivers 18mg of freebase nicotine in a 10ml bottle with a 70/30 VG/PG ratio. If a plain unflavoured nic shot feels like a missed opportunity, this one goes further by adding a clean, refreshing cooling character to every mix.

Description

The Cool Ice shot works as a straightforward shortfill additive. Add it to the empty space in a 50ml shortfill bottle, shake well, and you have 60ml of finished liquid ready to vape at approximately 3mg. It's a simple process, and because the nicotine strength is fixed at 18mg per shot, the output is consistent every single time.

What sets the Nic Nic Cool Ice apart from a standard unflavoured shot is the cooling element it brings to the finished mix. It works particularly well with fruity shortfills: blueberry, raspberry, mango and tropical blends all benefit from the icy exhale, which sharpens fruit notes and adds a satisfying freshness without masking the base flavour. Vapers who want a hint of menthol-like finish without committing to a dedicated menthol liquid will find this a practical middle ground.

This is a popular choice for sub-ohm vapers who mix their own liquids rather than relying on disposables or pre-mixed bottles. The 70% VG ratio supports good vapour production, and the consistent nicotine delivery gives you a predictable result across every batch you mix.

Flavour Profile

The Nic Nic Cool Ice shot has a clean, cooling character rather than a complex flavour profile. Here's what to expect across the vape:

• Inhale: Clean, neutral base with the first hints of a cool, icy character building through the draw
• Exhale: Crisp, refreshing ice finish, similar to a mild menthol. Not sharp or aggressive, but noticeably cooling
• Style: Icy, cooling, fresh
• Sweetness: None. This shot adds cooling only, not sweetness or flavour complexity
• Cooling level: Medium to strong. Distinctive enough to change the character of your shortfill, but not so intense it overpowers fruity or sweet bases
• Overall impression: A clean, cool nic shot that enhances fruity and sweet shortfills with a refreshing icy edge on the exhale

The cooling effect is best described as a crisp menthol-adjacent finish rather than an aggressive ice blast. Paired with the right shortfill, it lifts the overall vape without competing with the base flavour.

Why Choose the Nic Nic Cool Ice 18mg Nic Shot?

Most nic shots do one job: add nicotine. The Nic Nic Cool Ice shot adds nicotine and a consistent cooling effect, making it the go-to choice for vapers who want a light icy finish without switching their entire liquid setup.

• Best compatible with: Sub-ohm tanks and pod kits using high-VG shortfills
• Adds a refreshing icy exhale to fruity, tropical, or sweet shortfill bases
• More immediate throat hit than nic salt shots, which suits vapers already familiar with freebase nicotine
• UK-made with high-grade nicotine extract for consistent quality across every bottle
• Ideal for shortfills where you want cooling without switching to a dedicated menthol liquid
• Predictable nicotine output every time you mix, using a fixed 18mg strength

Freebase nicotine, the type used here, provides a more direct throat hit than nic salts and is the standard choice for sub-ohm shortfill mixing. If you use a pod kit with 50/50 liquids, this shot is not the right match due to the high VG ratio.

VG/PG Ratio

The Nic Nic Cool Ice shot uses a 70/30 VG/PG ratio. VG (vegetable glycerine) is responsible for vapour production and a smoother draw, while PG (propylene glycol) carries flavour and provides throat hit. At 70/30, this shot is formulated for sub-ohm and direct-lung vaping, where denser vapour production is expected.

When mixed into a 50ml or 100ml shortfill of a similar ratio, the overall VG level of the finished liquid stays firmly in the sub-ohm range. This ratio is not designed for MTL (mouth-to-lung) pod kits, which typically require 50/50 liquids for the best wicking performance and flavour delivery. If you're using a pod system, check your shortfill's ratio before choosing this shot.

Bottle Size & Nicotine Strengths

• Bottle size: 10ml
• Nicotine strength: 18mg freebase nicotine
• Nicotine type: Freebase, providing a more immediate throat hit than nic salts and the standard choice for shortfill mixing
• TPD compliant and UK-legal
• Not ready-to-vape on its own - must be added to a shortfill or DIY base before use
• Designed for use with sub-ohm tanks and high-VG shortfill liquids
• Mixing output: Add one 10ml shot to a 50ml shortfill to create 60ml at approximately 3mg. Add two shots to a 100ml shortfill to create 120ml at approximately 3mg

The UK legal limit for nicotine-containing e-liquid is 20mg in a 10ml bottle, and at 18mg this shot sits within that limit. The finished mixed liquid falls well below that threshold once diluted into the shortfill base.
