Banana Vape
Banana is one of the few fruit flavours that changes completely depending on how it is built. This collection pulls together 75 banana e-liquids stocked at Vapestore Direct, spanning 10ml nicotine salts and 100ml shortfills, with prices from £2.19. The range runs from a clean ripe banana through iced versions to dessert blends built on caramel, cereal milk and cream.
Nicotine containing e-liquid sold in the UK is capped at 20mg per ml and bottles containing nicotine are limited to 10ml, which is why every salt here is a small bottle. Shortfills work around the bottle limit by arriving nicotine free with headroom left for you to add nicotine shots yourself. Everything in this collection is sold to adults aged 18 and over.
What banana tastes like in an e-liquid
Ripe banana
A straight banana flavour aims for the soft sweetness of the fresh fruit. It is naturally a heavy rounded flavour rather than a sharp one, which is why banana rarely appears completely on its own. Mixers usually lift it with a light cream note or a touch of ice so it does not feel flat over a full day.
Banana ice
Banana ice is the most stocked version of the flavour here by a wide margin. Menthol or koolada cuts through the sweetness and makes it much easier to vape all day. If you have only tried warm banana blends, an iced version usually reads as cleaner.
Banana with other fruit
Strawberry banana is the classic pairing and it works because the strawberry brings the acidity that banana lacks. Melon banana blends do a similar job with a lighter more watery top note.
Banana desserts
Banana carries dessert flavours better than almost any other fruit. Caramel, waffle, custard and cereal milk blends all use banana as the base note because it is thick enough to hold them up. For most people these are evening flavours rather than all day vapes.
Formats banana comes in
10ml nicotine salts. The largest part of this collection. Nic salt is smoother at high strength than freebase nicotine, so 10mg and 20mg bottles stay comfortable in a small pod kit. Salts are mixed on a balanced base, typically 50/50 PG to VG, which suits coils rated above 1.0 ohm.
10ml freebase. The same bottle size with traditional freebase nicotine, which gives a firmer throat hit at the same strength.
100ml shortfills. Nicotine free high VG liquid supplied in a 120ml bottle, leaving room for two 10ml nicotine shots. High VG suits sub ohm coils below 1.0 ohm, which is what the banana shortfills in this range are built for.
Matching banana to your device and strength
Coil resistance decides the liquid. A pod kit or another mouth to lung device with a coil above 1.0 ohm wants a 10ml salt or a 50/50 bottle at 10mg to 20mg. A sub ohm kit with a coil below 1.0 ohm wants a high VG shortfill at 3mg or 6mg once a nicotine shot has been added, because vapour output per puff is far higher. Putting a 20mg salt through a sub ohm coil is the most common cause of a harsh first session.
Coil life with sweet banana blends
Banana desserts are heavily sweetened, normally with sucralose, which caramelises onto the coil and shortens its life. A coil that lasts two weeks on a light fruit may last a few days on a banana caramel blend. Running a dessert banana in one pod and a menthol in a second makes both coils last longer.
Brands stocked in this collection
The banana range covers the bar style salt brands UK vapers buy most, including Bar Juice, Bar Series, Just Juice, Elux Legend, SKE Crystal and OXVA, alongside shortfill labels such as Future Juice and Yeti.
Buying e-liquid in the UK
Nicotine containing e-liquid must be notified to the MHRA before it can be sold in the UK. Strength is capped at 20mg per ml, bottles containing nicotine at 10ml and tanks sold with nicotine liquid at 2ml. Single use vapes have been prohibited from sale since 1 June 2025, so the pre-filled pod kits that replaced them pair a rechargeable battery with a replaceable pod. Sales are restricted to adults aged 18 and over.
Delivery and support
UK delivery is free on orders over £20. Orders placed on working days are picked and dispatched quickly. If you want help choosing between an iced banana and a dessert banana for your device, call the team on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
Banana vape questions answered
What does banana vape juice taste like?
Most banana e-liquids aim for ripe fresh fruit rather than banana sweets, so the flavour is soft and thick rather than sharp. Because banana on its own can feel heavy, mixers usually pair it with menthol for an iced version, with strawberry or melon for a smoothie style blend or with caramel and cream for a dessert.
Is banana ice better than plain banana?
Neither is better, though iced versions are more popular as an all day flavour. The menthol or koolada in a banana ice cuts the sweetness so the flavour does not become tiring by the afternoon. Plain banana is richer and tends to suit shorter sessions or evening use.
What nicotine strength should I choose for a banana e-liquid?
UK law caps nicotine e-liquid at 20mg per ml. In a pod kit or another mouth to lung device, 20mg nic salt suits a heavier previous smoking habit while 10mg suits lighter use. In a sub ohm kit that produces far more vapour per puff, 3mg to 6mg is normal and anything stronger will feel harsh.
Can I use a banana shortfill in a pod kit?
It is usually the wrong pairing. Shortfills are high VG, commonly 70/30, which is too thick for the small wicking ports on most pod coils and will lead to dry hits. Pod kits and other coils above 1.0 ohm work best with a 10ml salt or a 50/50 bottle. Shortfills belong in sub ohm coils below 1.0 ohm.
Do banana e-liquids wear coils out quickly?
Sweet dessert versions do shorten coil life, because the sucralose used to sweeten them caramelises on the wire. Expect a few days rather than a couple of weeks from a banana caramel or cereal milk blend. Iced banana and fruit blends are far gentler on coils.
What is the difference between nic salt and freebase banana e-liquid?
Both are capped at 20mg per ml in the UK. Nicotine salt is smoother at high strength, so 20mg stays comfortable in a small device, which is why almost every bar style banana liquid is a salt. Freebase gives a stronger throat hit at the same strength and is often preferred by vapers who want that sensation.
Are single use banana vapes still available?
No. Single use vapes were prohibited from sale across the UK on 1 June 2025. The nearest equivalent now is a pre-filled pod kit, which pairs a rechargeable battery with a sealed pod that you replace. A refillable pod kit filled from a 10ml bottle works out cheaper again over time.
