- Cocktail Bubble Gun Kit Accessories, 5 Flavour: Apple, Citrus, Coffee, Strawberry and Blueberry Mix, Apple Wood - Works with Bartender Smoke Bubble Gun(Aromatic Oils)

I understand these are for Bubble Gun, but I use them for smoking cocktails. I usually add a couple of drops of any of the flavors on to the smoking chips or herbs. And I use smoker and butane torch to do the job. No matter what kind of herbs or wood chips I use, I am not just interested in the smoking flavors left on the cocktails. It may smell interesting before you smoke it, but once you smoke it, it just smells like "smoke" with not much flavors left behind. That's when these essential oil come in. It adds the flavor to the smoking it desperately needs. You can add additional fruit notes or coffee. For instance, you can do any of the combination to Negroni, it gives more pleasant experience than just a smoking. I am a professional bartender working at one of the luxury hotels. I will not hesitate to use it on smoking even at work.

Fun cocktail bubbles

Like others, I don’t yet have the rather pricey tool for making the fancy bubbles, but I selected these because they are still very useful aromatic oils than can be spritzed on a nice egg white foam in order to give your cocktail a delightful scent and sparkle on presentation. I think these flavors are thoughtful in terms of what might work with cocktail profiles, and so far I’ve managed to pair each one of them with awesome cocktails using the famous Flavor Bible, also found here on Amazon. I particularly enjoy the coffee oil on the surface of bourbon drinks with pecan or black walnut bitters, using a coffee demerara syrup. I transferred these oils into labeled small bottle spritzers, almost like portable fragrance holders (I've shown the bottle here just before transfer), and after shaking up a good foam on a beverage, or perhaps making a whipped foam from iSi canister, one mist from these oils absolutely FANCIES up that final presentation quite a bit. Guests without a lot of cocktail knowledge remark how the initial scent, like a wine, draws one in and elevates the other elements of the sip. I’m very satisfied with this small collection, which at 10ml per bottle, should last quite a while on a spray basis. I've attached my most recent beverage used employing a member of this collection. I think, even without the bubbles, you’ll be pleased with how these aromatics add to your parties and home bartender presentations.

I just added the AnchorChef Vapour Blaster Bubble Gun to our home bar tools, and we are having so much fun with it! The aromatic oils in this set really bring the bubbles up a notch. Once you add the oil to the Vapour Blaster, it infuses the smoke inside the bubbles. Then when the bubbles pop, you get the subtle aroma of the oil. This is not an overly scented oil - the scent is pretty faint. I really haven't noticed the taste of the oil in the cocktails, but when the vapour is still in the glass and you bring the glass to your mouth, you definitely get the aroma - which is pretty cool. The scents in this kit all smell really good - we especially like the citrus oil and the coffee oil. Yum! When you switch from one oil to another in the Vapour Blaster, just make sure you clean out the oil chamber as well as you can so the previous oil scent doesn't linger too much. We're very happy with the oils in this set, and we will definitely get a lot of use out them. If you have the Vapour Blaster, I do recommend them.

I don’t have the Explonovo gun, but I did use these with another brand. Here’s how I got the perfect flavored “smoke” (vapor really): I dipped the rim of my glass into water and then poured my bourbon into it. I squirted a small amount of my flavor of choice into a separate shot glass. I dipped the nozzle of my bubble gun (Flavour Blaster) into the flavor, then held it about an inch from the top of my drink and pulled the trigger! It was that easy. In return, I got a fantastic aromatic bubble with a hint of flavor! I don’t know how well this works with the Explonova gun, but with my vapor gun, it was the exact right amount of flavor!

I needed some refills for my bubble gun so I was thrilled to find these. I take them with me to every party and it's always a huge hit! The scents are nice and add a bit of a fun twist to your regular cocktails. Just make sure to use each flavor with a drink that it will compliment. My favorites are the apple and citrus but all are pleasant. The bubbles are strong and will not pop until you are ready to pop them. It does take a bit of practice but well worth it. I highly recommend it!

If you are getting these, you already have a Flavor Blaster or comparable device. As you probably already know, there's a lot of trial and error with those devices and that is the hard part. Using these flavored oils is the easy part. Nice sized vials that do not leak.

So, I ordered these drops thinking they could be added directly to a cocktail to enhance or manipulate a flavor profile. As someone who likes to take certain flavors that no one thinks would pair well together, and make something delicious... and quite successfully so far, I thought these would be an easy way to achieve that process. I did not read the fine print to realize that this required a $400 dollar machine, that I can not justify to my boss on my PnL. So that's on me. I didn't want to let them completely go to waste, so what I have used them for is flavoring the wood chips that we use for our smoked old fashion. The flavor addition is subtle, but noticeable. (Let the chips dry before using them.) For that reason, I am giving them a four star rating, being that I was able to hack a way to utilize them in my cocktail making process without the machine.
