The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a leading producer of water-soluble flavourings.
Koolada delivers a clean, flavourless chill (WS-style) with no mint/menthol taste. It adds refreshing coolness to fruits, berries, citrus, slushes and sodas, or tempers sweetness in desserts without changing the flavour. Use: Concentrate that must be diluted. TFA flavours are water-soluble and PG-carried; some may contain traces of ethanol. Note: We purchase in bulk and re-bottle into smaller bottles (not the original packaging).

Tips for this flavour
- Dosing start: 0.25–0.5% for mild chill; 0.6–1% for a clear iced feel. Above ~1.5% may feel harsh/drying.
- Slush & soda: pair with Sweet & Tart (0.25–0.75%) and Sour (0.1–0.3%) for fizz.
- Tropical builds: mango, pineapple, passionfruit; a squeeze of lime for lift.
- Desserts: 0.2–0.4% gives an ice-cream/milkshake chill without mint notes.
- No-mint cooling: add Menthol Liquid only if you also want mint flavour; otherwise use Koolada alone.
- Steeping: 0–3 days—cooling settles fast; fine-tune after a short rest.
