What are Nicotine Shots?

Nicotine shots are small (10ml) bottles that contain concentrated, unflavoured e-liquid with a high nicotine (TPD-compliant nic strength) content (typically 15mg, 18mg, or 20mg). They are specifically prepared to be added to shortfill e-liquids (bigger vape juice bottles) that are intentionally underfilled to 80% and leave the remaining 20% space for these shots. This system provides a convenient and legal way to enjoy larger volumes of nicotine-containing e-liquid.

Types of Nicotine Shots

Not all nicotine shots are created equal, hence knowing its different types is helpful to choose the perfect one for your preferred vaping style and expected throat hit:

Freebase Nicotine Shots

This is the traditional form of nicotine, offering a more pronounced throat hit, especially at higher strengths (e.g., 18mg or 20mg). They are typically absorbed into the bloodstream at a slower rate, and this makes them a go-to pick for vapers accustomed to standard e-liquids. You'll often find these in various VG/PG ratios, for example Nic Nic 10ml Nicotine Shot 18mg (70VG) or the Nicotine Shot 10ml By Nic Nic (100VG), enough variations for you to match your shortfill's consistency.

Nicotine Salt (Nic Salt) Shots

Nicotine salts are a newer form of nicotine possessing a pH level below seven that results in a much smoother throat hit even at higher concentrations (e.g., 20mg). They are absorbed more quickly into the bloodstream, giving a quick nicotine satisfaction resembling a traditional cigarette. These are Ideal for pod systems and vapers seeking a smoother experience.

Ice / Menthol Nicotine Shots

These shots contain a cooling agent or menthol flavouring in addition to nicotine. They are perfect for adding a refreshing, icy kick to your favourite shortfill flavours. Examples include the Ice Shots 10ml by Nic Drip (18mg) or Ice Shots 10ml by Nic Nic (18mg), which can upgrade your vape with a chilling sensation.

How to Choose the Right Nicotine Shot Strength

Below are some suggestions from our vaping experts to help you start:

For 3mg strength

  • Add one 18mg, 10ml nicotine shot to a 50ml shortfill in a 60ml bottle.
  • Nicotine per shot = Nicotine Shot Strength (18mg/ml) × Nicotine Shot Volume (10ml) = 180mg
  • Total Volume = Shortfill E-liquid Volume (50ml) + Nicotine Shot Volume (10 ml) = 60ml
Calculate Final Nicotine Strength:
  • Final Strength = Total Nicotine in Shots (180mg) / Total Final E-liquid Volume (60ml) = 3mg/ml
    • For 6mg strength:

      Add two 18mg, 10ml nicotine shots to a 40ml shortfill within a 50ml bottle.
      • Nicotine per shot = 18mg/ml × 10ml = 180mg
      • Total Nicotine = 2 shots × 180mg/shot = 360mg
      • Total Volume = Shortfill E-liquid Volume (40ml) + Total Nicotine Shot Volume (2 × 10 ml) = 60ml
      • Final Strength = Total Nicotine in Shots (360 mg) / Total Final E-liquid Volume (60 ml) = 6mg/ml

      Advantages of Using Nicotine Shots

      • Customisation: You have full control over your e-liquid's final nicotine strength and can always set it according to your vape cravings or needs.
      • Cost-Effectiveness: Buying larger shortfill bottles and adding nicotine shots is cheaper per ml than purchasing multiple 10ml nicotine-containing e-liquids.
      • TPD Compliance: Nicotine shots (in 10ml bottles) and nicotine-free shortfills fully comply with TPD regulations in the UK and EU.
      • Wider Flavour Range: Shortfills offer an expansive array of flavours, and nicotine shots allow you to add nicotine to any of them.
