Are There Vapes That Taste Like Crystal Bars?

Are your daydreams full of the tangy flavour of citrus fruits? Ours too! In that case, the Lemon & Lime Crystal Bar vape will probably be right up your street. From your first inhale you'll detect the sweet and sharp fusion of lemon and limes, with a juicy taste coming through on exhale to keep things interesting.

After a citrusy alternative to Lemon & Lime? Our top nic salt picks have to be Citrus Seven by ULTD and Hippie Trail by Nasty Salts. If you’re into DTL vaping we have you covered too! Give the Fantasia Lemon shortfill by Seriously Fruity a go. Plus, SKE have a handy prefilled pod kit with a Lemon & Lime SKE Crystal Plus prefilled pod to pair it with!

Now here’s a vapers' favourite. The Cherry Ice Crystal Bar offers the perfect balance between sweet and cool. The tangy, fruity flavour of cherry is softened on exhale by a layer of icy menthol. It's no wonder then that this vape remains the best-selling device in the range.

Luckily, e-liquid mixologists have long understood the appeal of cherry and have created a huge range of options for your refillable kit. If you’re looking for an e-liquid that feels and tastes similar to your Cherry Ice disposable, Frozen Cherries nic salt by IVG will do the trick. Prefer sub ohm vaping? Check out the Double Cherry shortfill by Fruit Falls! Since the disposable is so popular, SKE have made a prefilled pod version, with their Cherry Ice Crystal Plus pod.

Don't reach into the fridge for another can until you've read about this next vape. The Cola Ice Crystal Bar captures the sharp notes of a classic soda and brings with it a sweetness reminiscent of American-style cola. The added ice notes intensify the tangy flavour of this blend and help deliver a fresh taste.

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Cola Ice must be feeling pretty good about itself! Top brands have stepped up to the challenge and Cola Ice by Bar Drop Salts is one of our favourites. But you can always stick with SKE and grab the Cola Ice Crystal Original e-liquid if you’d prefer. Elf Bar has also chimed in with their own take on this flavour and their Cola disposable is a top example. Don't worry, sub ohm vapers have something to try too with the Cola Ice shortfill by IVG!

Prefer tangy vapes? The Sour Pineapple Ice disposable does the job nicely. Combining sweet and sour notes on inhale, this punchy blend cools things out with a blast of ice on exhale that ties the whole thing together.

A beloved flavour amongst vapers both old and new, pineapple ice was bound to find itself on the menu of at least a few heavy-hitting brands, right? Well if you’re after one that rivals this one by SKE, we recommend giving the classic Pineapple Ice BM600 by Lost Mary a try. Prefer e-liquids? Pineapple Ice by Vampire Vape should do the trick. Or if you’d rather stick to SKE, Pineapple Ice e-liquid by Crystal Original. If you’re stocking up though, go for Pineapple Ice shortfill by Imp Jar.

Mimicking the sweet taste of classic cherryade, the SKE Fizzy Cherry certainly hits the spot. Layering fizzy soda notes with dark cherry, this blend provides a distinct sugary flavour with each puff.

But where else can you try this flavour? Luckily, SKE have bottled this one themselves as Fizzy Cherry by Crystal Original, so you can try it as an e-liquid! Looking for something different? Give Fizzy Cherry by Fresh Bar or Fizzy Cherry by Bar Juice 5000 a try. If you’re after a prefilled pod kit that provides more puffs between pod swaps, grab a Sky Hunter Twist Slim kit and pair it with the Fizzy Cherry Sky Hunter Twist Slim pods.

If you like your vapes on the bold side then you should definitely set yourself up with the Blueberry Sour Raspberry Crystal Bar vape. On inhale and exhale, a balanced fusion of sweet blueberry and a more tangy raspberry are present. The underlying juicy taste serves to highlight the sharpness of the berry flavours.

The combination of sweet blueberry and sour raspberry has been popular for some time now and with so many brands jumping at the chance to offer their own version, there’s quite a selection! But which ones should you go for? Well, if you fancy a nic salt e-liquid, Blueberry Sour Raspberry by Elfliq and Blueberry Sour Raspberry by Riot Bar Edition are two great options! Sticking to disposables? Go for one of our favourites – Blueberry Sour Raspberry by Elf Bar.

Playing between sweet and sour, the fizzy-tasting combination of blue raspberry and lemonade is ideal for vapers who prefer things on the tangy side. Since SKE has done well with their take on the Blue Razz Lemonade vape, it’s no wonder so many have tried to emulate it!

With so many heavy-hitting brands giving this blend a try, separating the good from the great was a challenge! Regardless, a few top contenders made it through the ranks. Almost perfectly recreating the taste of the disposable, Blue Razz Lemonade by Crystal Original is ideal if you’re looking for an e-liquid. But if you prefer using prefilled pods, the SKE Crystal Plus Blue Razz Lemonade version is a go-to. Let's not forget the sub ohm vapers either – Blue Razz Lemonade shortfill by Seriously Soda has you covered.

This vape is ideal if you like simple, yet bold flavours. The Strawberry Burst disposable by SKE provides the distinct taste of sweet strawberry from your first puff to your last and it doesn’t skip the juicy notes either!

Strawberry e-liquid flavours are a staple amongst vaping brands both old and new, so there’s plenty to choose from! Without further ado, here are our top picks. Staying true to the SKE flavour, Strawberry Burst by Crystal Original is first up, with Strawberry Burst by Vampire Vape closely following. Prefer pods? Go for the Strawberry Burst SKE Crystal Plus pod. If you’re an MTL vaper after a larger bottle, grab the Sweet Strawberry Ice shortfill by Imp Jar!

Cool, sweet and simple, there's a lot to like about the Menthol Crystal Bar. Blends like this are ideal if you're looking to take a break from rich tobaccos or super-sweet fruit vapes, and instead, it delivers the icy flavour of menthol with every inhale. As far as disposables go, it doesn't get more classic than this.

Menthol vapes are one of the first flavours you'll likely try. With this in mind, e-liquid companies from around the world have spent endless hours and days coming up with their ultimate version. We've gone for Menthol by Crystal Original and Glacier by Salt as our top e-liquids. Sticking to disposables? The Menthol BM600 by Lost Mary is a great alternative!

Hark back to hazy summer days with the flavour of a favourite hot-weather soda. We're talking about the Pink Lemonade Crystal Bar of course! Delicate notes of pink berries serve as a jumping-off point for the bold citrusy flavour of traditional lemonade. The two work together to create a balanced flavour that's equal parts sweet and tangy.

Understandably, mixing the perfect soda vape remains the preoccupation of e-liquid mixologists around the world. This means there are quite a few for us to recommend too! Pink Lemonade by Elfliq and Pink Lemonade by Riot Bar Edition are as good as they come in regards to 10ml e-liquids. But, if you’re looking for something more cost-effective, stock up on the Pink Lemonade shortfill by Imp Jar!

Capturing the flavour of the classic confectionery, Fruit Gum is ideal for those of you with a sweet tooth. Mimicking the distinct notes of gummy bears, the Fruit Gum Crystal Bar pairs candy with mixed fruit from start to finish. With the reputation that SKE have for bold blends, it's no surprise that this one is a best-seller, but how do the rest hold up?

Luckily, mixologists have long since been crafting their own take on this favourite! Gummy Bear by Bar Juice 5000 and Gami Rare by Crystal Original are top choices as far as e-liquids go. The Gummy Bear Elux Zero N prefilled pods are ideal if you prefer a hands-off approach instead! How does this flavour do as a DTL vape? The White Gummy Bear shortfill by Pod Salt Nexus gives the all-clear as far as taste goes!

There's nothing like a good candy vape, chuck some tropical and garden-variety fruit into the mix and you have a recipe for success! The Watermelon Strawberry Crystal Bar is all that and more. Apart from the sweet flavour you'll experience there are also added ripe and juicy notes for a more authentic-tasting vape.

Now, this is quite a unique and complex flavour, so you might be a little worried that maybe the e-liquid mixers haven't quite caught onto the trend. Well, you'd be wrong! Strawberry Watermelon by Pukka Juice is a great contender. But if you’d rather stick to the blend you know and love, Watermelon Strawberry by Crystal Original will do the trick. If you’re as keen on this blend as we are, you might want to try the Watermelon Strawberry SKE Crystal 4in1 prefilled pods with the SKE 4in1 kit, it’ll last as long as four disposables!

Looking for a summery blend? A cocktail-inspired e-liquid might be just what you need and the Fresh Menthol Mojito Crystal Bar could certainly lend a hand with its cool notes! Combining mint and lime, this zingy vape features the frosty notes of menthol from start to finish – ideal for when the sun is out! It’s hard to create a blend that captures the mojito flavour, but SKE has certainly pulled it off! How does everyone else hold up?

As far as flavour goes, Fresh Menthol Mojito by Crystal Original will do the job. But if you’re looking to try something new (and equally bold!), give Fresh Menthol Mojito e-liquid by Fresh Bar a go. If you’re into sub ohm vaping and raspberry notes are your thing, try Raspberry Mojito by Big Drip! This 100ml shortfill is ideal for those of you who like to stock up and prefer lower strengths.

There’s something about the fusion of tropical fruit and ice that just seems to work. The Watermelon Ice Crystal Bar is no exception! It isn’t the first to provide this bold combination, but it's certainly one of the most notable. This vape delivers the sweet taste of crisp watermelon on inhale before ice takes over with a frosty exhale - ideal if you like a well-rounded blend.

What other vapes taste like Watermelon Ice by Crystal Bar? Well, there’s Watermelon Ice by Crystal Orignal for a start. But if you fancy venturing a little further from the flavour you know and love, the Watermelon e-liquid by V4 Vapour and Watermelon Ice shortfill by Imp Jar are a great start!

Kiwi, passion fruit and guava may seem like an unlikely trio, but it’s been a staple for vapers for as long as we can remember! Playing between sweet and sour, this mix of juicy-tasting fruits delivers a bold flavour from start to finish. As a classic, there’s no surprise that Crystal Bar has their own version!

So, who lives up to the reputation of the SKE vape? If you’re sticking to disposables, go with one of the first to do it and try the Kiwi Passionfruit Guava Elf Bar! Prefer e-liquid? Kiwi Passionfruit Guava by Crystal Original and Kiwi Guava Passionfruit by Fresh Bar are two of our favourites!

Now we're talking! Rich, smooth and an altogether welcome alternative to the fruits and menthols that grace the rest of the collection, the Tobacco Crystal Bar vape keeps things classic by channelling the dark flavour of tobacco into every puff. A bit sweet and more than a little nutty it's a complex blend that vapers seem to keep coming back to.

We're not kidding when we tell you that tobacco vapes are a serious contender for the best-seller list. Which makes it really hard to recommend one. So, we haven't… here are our favourites! Tobacco by Elfliq and Menthol Tobacco by Vampire Vape are great choices if you’re looking for e-liquids. Rather skip the refills? The Cream Tobacco Elf Bar P1 prefilled pods will certainly do the trick.

There's something about the ripe, almost creamy, taste of bananas that works well with menthol. Delivering a smooth taste with a sweet kick, the Banana Ice Crystal Bar disposable vape is ideal if you're looking for a softer fruit flavour that still carries a sweetness with it from inhale to exhale.

Still trying to find a vape that really plays up the creamy notes of banana? Then we highly recommend Banana Ice by Bar Juice 5000. If you’re feeling adventurous, Banana Candy Ice by Ohm Brew 50/50 is a great choice! Thanks to its added confectionery notes. For those of you looking to grab this blend in a larger bottle, check out the Banana Ice shortfill by Imp Jar, its 50% VG means it's ideal for MTL vapers!

As we’ve seen in previous blends, tropical fruits pack a punch! But what would happen if you added orchard fruit into the mix? Something special that’s for sure! Pineapple Peach Mango by Crystal Bar is a testament to this, with its sweet, tangy and juicy notes coming through from your first puff to your last.

How does everyone else fair at creating this balanced blend? The results are looking pretty good! Tropical Tsunami by Vampire Vape and Pineapple Peach Mango by Crystal Original are our favourites in the e-liquid department, but, what about prefilled pods? The Mango Peach Pineapple Riot Connex prefilled pod is a clear winner (in our humble opinion of course).

Fancy a candy vape? There’s one that comes to mind for us - Fruit Medley by Crystal Bar. What’s so interesting about this flavour? Its well-balanced mix of fruit and candy notes plays between sweet and sour, without skipping the juicy notes. Not enough to convince you? We’ll let you in on a little-known secret, they’ve done a pretty good job at mimicking a popular sweet. Whilst we can’t get into specifics, it certainly conjures up images of bowling...

So, which other brands have had a crack at this mysterious flavour? Surprisingly, quite a few! Rainbow Blast by IVG 50/50 and Rinbo by Elfliq are our top MTL e-liquid picks. Prefer sub ohm vaping? The Shock Rainbow Sweets shortfill by Juice N Power is an ideal choice. But you can always stick with the tried and proven by going for the Rainbow SKE Crystal Plus prefilled pod.

Playing between sweet and sour with every puff, it's hard to see what’s not to like about the fusion of blueberry, cherry and cranberry. This mix has been attempted time and time again and it's easy to overdo the tangy notes, but the Blueberry Cherry Cranberry Crystal Bar vape certainly pulls it off!

Choosing our favourite alternatives for this punchy trio was a task, but here we go! If you’re after an e-liquid, Blueberry Cherry Cranberry by Elux and Blueberry Cherry Cranberry by Bar Juice 5000 are two to keep at the top of your list. Don’t feel missed out if you’re a DTL vaper! We have you covered too – try the Radon shortfill by Cyber Rabbit.
