8 Best Nic Salt Juice in 2024 (UK Market)

Nicotine salts now make up most e-liquids produced by the vaping industry, and it’s easy to see why. Compared to traditional freebase, the best nic salts provide a smooth throat hit, increased flavour, and faster nicotine delivery, making them appealing not only to beginner vapers but also to veterans.

So, what’s your preference, stranger? Do you like a cool menthol puff from your pod kit, or are you more of a gummy candy fan? Whatever flavour you prefer, we’re certain that you’ll love our top recommendations! So, let’s look at the best vape juice featuring great nicotine salt flavours!

Don’t forget! Pod vape kits that are MTL (mouth to lung) are highly recommended for nic salt e liquids.

The Best Nic Salt Overall is: ELFLIQ Strawberry Snoow  

I’ve named ELFLIQ’s Strawberry Snoow as the winner of the best nic salt e-liquids because it’s a masterclass in balance. Smooth to inhale, but with a cool throat hit. Sweet and juicy fruit taste but with a thick cascade of creaminess. And with two nic salt strengths, it’s a winning choice every time.

The 8 Best Nicotine Salt E-liquids Are:

  1. ELFLIQ Strawberry Snoow
  2. Best for: Citrus 
  3. IVG 6000 Cherry Chew
  4. Nasty Liq Mineral Water
  5. Six Licks Tongue Twisters Raspberry Apple
  6. Cuttwood Bar Salts Cherry Cola
  7. Riot Squad 100% Menthol Tobacco
  8. Wick Liquor Solstice Morning Star

Elf Excellence

Genuine Elf Bar e-liquid 

Creamy Juice

Perfect balance of cream and fruit notes 

Cool Runnings

Sharp ice for a stimulating exhale and smoother throat hit

Good nic salt e-liquids can replicate cigarette satisfaction, but the best nic salt satisfies and indulges equally. Strawberry Snoow, part of Elf Bar’s ELFLIQ range of salt nicotine e-liquids, balances juicy fruit flavour with incredibly smooth and rich cream tastes, all accompanied by a delightful chill note.

I am straight-up obsessed with this nic salt, and it’s weird because neither strawberries nor ice cream are usually my thing. But Elf Bar did a phenomenal job with Strawberry Snoow, which was until recently named Strawberry Ice Cream.

It’s the taste of a disposable vape nic salt e-liquid, with two nicotine strength options to choose from (I’m a 10mg man, myself). Every puff tastes like the best dessert you’ve ever eaten—an absolute triumph of flavour production and satisfaction delivery.

Pros

  • Gentle inhales at 10mg and 20mg 
  • Authentic vape juice made by Elf Bar themselves
  • Incredibly accurate fruity ice cream taste

Cons

  • Lower strength options would be great 
  • Too sweet for some vapers

Tangy Taste: Rare use of grapefruit juice flavour 
Pic A Nic: Four nicotine strengths available 
Hold Back: Grapefruit’s sour taste is grounded with sweetness 

The light citrus flavour offered by Mineral Water above might differ from what you want. If you’re looking for an intense and tart vape liquid with a rich citrus taste, consider Grapefruit Ting from the MIST Bar Salts range.

Grapefruit is weirdly uncommon as a vape flavour, and the singing sour notes of pink and delicious breakfast citrus will have you wondering why after a single puff.

The strength options are a great aspect of Grapefruit Ting and the rest of the MIST Bar Salts range. Nic salts usually offer 20mg and 10mg if you’re lucky, but Grapefruit Ting can be enjoyed at 3mg, 6mg, 12mg and 18mg, making it perfect for any sour fruit fan, regardless of what nic strength you require for satisfaction and comfort.

Pros

  • Sharp grapefruit tartness 
  • A huge number of nicotine strengths
  • Not too sour for session vaping

Cons

  • No 0mg version is available 
  • A bit of extra sweetness would be nice

Fruit FR: Very accurate natural cherry taste 
Handy Candy: A touch of candy flavour adds a playful note 
Cherry Sip: Somewhat reminiscent of a sparkling cherryade drink 

Cherry Chew from the IVG 6000 range manages the seemingly difficult task of delivering a cherry-flavoured vape juice without an overwhelmingly synthetic profile. They achieve this with light candy and ice additions to smooth over any distasteful flavour aspects.

I love cherries, my favourite pitted fruit, and Cherry Chew does a fantastic job of balancing the sweet and sugary aspects of cherries alongside the tarter, sour elements of that most seductive fruit.

There’s even a note of ‘cherryade,’ which, while not powerful enough to make this e-liquid a beverage vape, is a nice angle for IVG to take when so many contemporaries play it safe with a ‘mentholated cherry drop’ take.

Pros

  • The sugary flavour doesn’t overwhelm the taste profile 
  • Uniquely accurate fruit taste
  • Gentle addition of ice

Cons

  • Some may prefer a more sour cherry taste
  • Candy notes won’t suit all preferences

Fountain Mew: Tastes exactly like a particular sparkling US soft drink 
Easy Does It: Remarkably restrained use of ice and sugar for Nasty Juice 
Tasty Trio: A citrus combo of lemon, lime and orange juices 

Ah, Mineral Water, one of the most interesting beverage vapes I’ve ever tried and without question my favourite unit from the NastyLiq range of nic salts.

Mineral Water perfectly captures the taste of a popular American soda, one often sold in a green can with a citrus flavour. Consider the name, and you might guess which one.

The flavour is of a lemon-lime citrus combo with a hint of orange, with a note of ice for that ‘straight ouf of the fridge’ refreshment. The sweetness and the cool edge are remarkably light for a Nasty Juice e-liquid, making Mineral Water the ultimate session vape for a warm sunny day.

Pros

  • Perfect recreation of a popular soda 
  • Excellent balance of ice and sweetness
  • A good e-liquid for session vaping

Cons

  • Nasty Juice fanatics may want more sweetener 
  • The restrained fruit tastes might frustrate some vapers

Gum Yum: Delicious flavours of gummy candy bar juice
Double Act: The raspberry and apple notes work well together 
Restrained Rasp: The raspberry is held back so as not to overwhelm 

The best candy is sour candy; I’ll die on this hill. The Raspberry Apple Nic Salt from the Six Licks Tongue Twisters is a super sour shock of tangy flavour at either strength.

Raspberry was an obvious choice for a sour fruit, and it achieves this job so well thanks to its natural tanginess. But apple is the star of the project for me, as sour apple sweets are the highest plateau of flavour for acidic confectionary aficionados such as myself.

The extra sugar provides the candy edge, giving it a blend of bubblegum and gummy bear notes that take a bit of the sour edge off. The less-than-hardcore will appreciate this as it assists in session vaping.

Pros

  • Intense sour candy flavour 
  • Fruits are well-balanced
  • The tart apple notes are excellent

Cons

  • Far too sour for some vapers 
  • The candy edge may put off fruit purists

Unique Take: Inventive pairing of tobacco and banana 
Worlds Collide: Toasted earthy flavours work well with creamy fruit 
You Ess Ay: Made in the United States of America 

Tobacco vape liquid is cheap and plentiful, and many manufacturers have tried to stand out from the crowd with their own tobacco twists. Cuttwood’s Tobacco Train caught us off guard, and we’re glad it did because who would have thought tobacco went so well with bananas?

Hear me out: toasted, brown and earthy tobacco notes, seductively entwined by the creamy, light and mellow flavour of soft banana fruit. Tobacco and cream are a common blend, so why not tobacco and the creamiest fruit there is?

One puff and you’ll be convinced, because I’ve never before tasted such a mouthwatering take on tobacco, a flavour so classic and entrenched as to be considered solved. Cuttwood knew differently, and Tobacco Train will prove to you that there’s plenty we’ve yet to learn about taste pairings. 

Pros

  • Sumptuously creamy tobacco blend 
  • Soft fruit taste works well within smoky flavour profiles
  • Moderate and balanced sweetness

Cons

  • A strange pairing that some may find a bit weird 
  • No 0% 50/50 version to buy

New Port in a Storm: Perfect recreation of a menthol cigarette 
Old Favourites: Excellent for recent, nostalgic smokers 
Mature Puffs: No excessive sweeteners are used 

A lot of people who quit smoking cigarettes were of the menthol persuasion, and luckily, there are many cool, mentholated nic salts to choose from to help deliver nicotine. But Riot Squad went the full distance and produced a delightful recreation of that cold menthol cig satisfaction.

Menthol Tobacco, from Riot’s 100% Menthol line of nic salts and high VG shortfills, achieves a perfect marriage of earthy, rich tobacco notes ensconced within cool botanical hues of frosty menthol. Every inhale is equal parts invigorating and relaxing, making it the perfect facsimile of a menthol cig or rollie.

Riot even goes the extra distance in providing a third extra low 5mg nic strength along with the usual 10mg and 20mg, making their Menthol Tobacco Nic Salt excellent for recent smokers whose main goal is nicotine reduction while still wishing to enjoy their favourite flavour.

Pros

  • A great menthol cigarette replacement 
  • Even balance of tobacco and menthol tastes
  • Great for those who dislike sugary vapes

Cons

  • Of no interest to those who disliked menthol cigarettes 
  • Plain flavours can grow tiresome

Premium Pud: Vanilla cheesecake with caramel sauce flavour 
MTL DTL: Also sold as a high-VG shortfill e-liquid 
Heaven & Hell: Delectable contrast of light and rich dessert tastes 

Wick Liquor knows how to create a unique flavour, and their old juggernaut bottles were crazy popular with vapers. Now, their new Solstice range of nic salts and shortfills is providing new indulgent tastes, and Morning Star is one of the most decadent dessert vapes I’ve ever tried.

So what’s for pudding? How about a thick slice of sumptuous cheesecake? Lovely. Oh but it’s gonna need a scattering of creamy Madagascan vanilla pods. And why not top it all off with a drizzle of hot, spicy caramel sauce, a perfect deep contrast to the light and heavenly cheesecake flavour.

It’s an impressive attempt at producing the most indulgent dessert vape possible for vapers with a sweet tooth, and Wick Liquor pulled it off with their usual style and class.

Pros

  • Fluffy vanilla cheesecake flavour 
  • Spicy sweet caramel sauce topping
  • Caramel heat provides a nice throat hit

Cons

  • Far too sweet for some chain vapers 
  • A little bit more expensive than some nic salts

FAQ

Are Nicotine Salts Safe?

Nicotine salt e-liquids are as safe as any other form of e-liquid. No studies suggest any health issues stemming from the use of nicotine salts. While nicotine salts should never be consumed orally, the same can be said of any nicotine solution.

For more details on nicotine salt vape juice, check out our What Are Nic Salts guide.

What Kind of Vape is Used for Salt Nic?

Nic salt vape juices are compatible with the majority of vape kits, vape pens and pod kits, as they’re usually brewed with a 50VG/50PG or high-PG base. Almost all the best pod vape kits will feature pods or coils with ohmages of 0.8 ohms and higher, which are perfect for nic salts. Just be sure not to use a cloudy sub-ohm kit for nic salts, as they’ll leak out of the airflow ports.

MTL vs. Nic Salts: What’s the Difference?

Technically there isn’t one, as all the best nic salts are MTL juices, however not all the best MTL vape juice uses nic salts.

Traditionally, regular e-liquid was made using what’s now referred to as “freebase” nicotine solution. It has a characteristic “hit” to the throat and chest when inhaled, which many enjoy, but others find irritating.

Nic salt e-liquid was made to address this issue by using harmless benzoic acid to neutrialise the “kick” associated with freebase nicotine and provide a smoother throat hit.

Is It Normal for Nic Salt Vape Juice To Make You Dizzy?

If you feel dizzy or lightheaded when vaping nic salt vape juice, you have not yet adjusted to the intensity nic salt vape juice provides. Compared to freebase e-liquids, nic salts quickly deliver a surge of nicotine into your body – similar to smoking cigarettes. To prevent dizziness when vaping, (1) you can switch to freebase vape juice, (2) opt for nic salt e-liquid with a lower nicotine strength, or (3) minimize puffing frequency.
