Best Menthol & Ice Nic Salts UK 2026 — Every Style Reviewed
Menthol and ice is the second most popular flavour category in UK vaping, and it’s not hard to understand why. The cooling sensation is satisfying, refreshing, and — critically — familiar. For the millions of smokers who smoked menthol cigarettes before the UK menthol tobacco ban came into effect in 2020, a quality menthol nic salt is the closest thing to replicating what they were used to. For everyone else, a well-made ice nic salt offers something that no other flavour category does: a genuine physical cooling sensation on the exhale that makes every puff feel crisp and clean.
At White Vape Co we stock over 120 menthol and ice products across nic salts and shortfills, including our own White Vape Co brand range that has become one of our best-selling lines nationally. In this guide we’ve broken down every style — pure menthol, fruit ice, cool mint blends, and menthol shortfills for DTL vapers — so you can find exactly what you’re looking for.
Pure Menthol Nic Salts — Best for Ex-Menthol Cigarette Smokers
Pure menthol nic salts are the closest thing available to a menthol cigarette in vape form. They deliver a clean, cool, slightly herbal coolness without any fruit sweetness — just straightforward menthol, the way former menthol cigarette smokers know and want it. If you’re switching from cigarettes and menthol was your thing, this is your starting point.
White Vape Co Classic Menthol Nic Salt
Our own-brand Classic Menthol nic salt is one of our most consistent sellers across all three stores and online. It delivers exactly what the name promises — a clean, accurate menthol with proper cooling depth and no artificiality. Available in 10mg and 20mg, it’s the first recommendation our team makes to anyone switching from menthol cigarettes. Priced from £2.49, it’s also exceptional value.
Double Menthol — FRUZA Nic Salts
FRUZA’s Double Menthol is exactly what the name suggests — a layered menthol that hits harder and colder than most standard menthol nic salts. If you find single menthol profiles a little flat, or you were a heavy menthol smoker who needs a pronounced cooling hit, Double Menthol delivers it. Clean, intense, no fruit, no sweetness. One of the best pure menthol nic salts available at any price.
Menthol — Ox Passion Nic Salts
Ox Passion’s menthol offering is a slightly more refined take — still clean and cool but with a smoothness that makes it an excellent all-day vape for those who find some menthols too harsh over extended sessions. It pairs well with lower-resistance pod coils where the flavour has room to open up.
Menthol — OHM BREW Double Brew
OHM BREW’s menthol nic salt sits in the premium end of the pure menthol category. The Double Brew formula delivers exceptional flavour clarity and a consistent cool that doesn’t fade on the exhale — a common problem with cheaper menthol nic salts where the cooling peaks on the inhale and drops off quickly.
Fruit Ice Nic Salts — The Most Popular Style in 2026
Fruit ice is the dominant style within the menthol and ice category — combining ripe, sweet fruit flavours with a sharp cooling finish that keeps every puff refreshing. Since the disposable vape ban, the demand for fruit ice nic salts in refillable pod kits has surged dramatically, and the quality across the major brands has risen to match it.
Watermelon Ice — Mix Labs Nic Salts
Consistently one of the most searched and best-selling nic salt flavours in the UK. Mix Labs’ Watermelon Ice delivers sweet, juicy watermelon with a clean icy finish that doesn’t overpower the fruit. The 50/50 VG/PG formula works beautifully in pod kits, and the flavour holds its accuracy across the full life of a pod. If you’re new to ice nic salts, this is the logical starting point.
Mango Ice — Mix Labs Nic Salts
Tropical sweetness with cooling depth — Mango Ice is one of the most satisfying all-day vapes in the entire Mix Labs range. The mango is ripe and authentic rather than artificial, and the ice balance is measured rather than overwhelming. An excellent choice for vapers who want fruit-forward flavour with just enough cool to keep it refreshing.
Peach Ice — Mix Labs Nic Salts
A softer, slightly more subtle fruit ice profile compared to Watermelon or Mango. Peach Ice suits vapers who want cooling without the sharpness — the fruit sweetness is more prominent and the ice sits underneath rather than dominating. A standout choice for those who find some ice profiles too intense.
Strawberry Raspberry Cherry Ice — Mix Labs Nic Salts
One of the more complex fruit ice profiles in the Mix Labs range — a layered blend of three distinct red fruits, each contributing something different before the ice finish ties it together. Notably more interesting than single-fruit ice profiles and genuinely earns all-day-vape status.
Banana Ice — Mix Labs Nic Salts
Sweet, creamy banana with a surprisingly punchy ice finish that cuts through the richness of the fruit. Banana Ice appeals to vapers who want something that sits between a fruit ice and a dessert ice profile — it’s refreshing without being sharp.
Pineapple Ice — Mix Labs Nic Salts
Tropical, tangy pineapple with an ice finish that amplifies the natural sharpness of the fruit. Pineapple Ice has become one of the fastest-growing ice profiles in the UK since 2025 and Mix Labs’ version is among the most accurate available.
Cherry Raspberry Ice — FRUZA Nic Salts
A well-balanced combination of sharp cherry and tangy raspberry with a cooling finish. FRUZA’s Cherry Raspberry Ice is one of the more nuanced fruit ice nic salts in the budget-friendly tier — exceptional value at 4 for £10, and the complexity of the flavour profile punches above what you’d expect at that price.
Pineapple Ice Pop — FRUZA Nic Salts
FRUZA’s take on pineapple ice leans into the ice lolly angle — the sweetness is heightened compared to a pure tropical profile, giving it a dessert-adjacent character while keeping the cooling punch fully intact. A great choice for vapers who want something that feels like a summer treat.
Triple Berry Ice — Doozy Seriously Salty Fusionz
Doozy’s Fusionz range approaches ice flavours differently — layering multiple complementary fruits rather than leading with a single note. Triple Berry Ice combines three berry profiles with a cooling finish that feels more sophisticated than most single-berry ice nic salts. An excellent option for vapers building out their flavour repertoire beyond the standard picks.
Tropical Ice — Doozy Seriously Salty Fusionz
A multi-tropical blend — think mango, passion fruit, and pineapple — with ice running through the exhale. Tropical Ice is one of the fuller, more rounded ice profiles in the Doozy range and performs particularly well in pod kits where the lower wattage lets the complexity of the fruit blend come through.
Strawberry Ice — Vampire Vape MAX Nic Salts
Vampire Vape’s MAX formula delivers enhanced flavour intensity across the board, and Strawberry Ice is a strong example of what that means in practice. The strawberry is vivid and sweet, the ice finish is crisp, and the overall profile feels fuller and more satisfying than standard nic salt versions of the same flavour. Available at White Vape Co as part of the Vampire Vape MAX range.
Banana Ice — Vampire Vape MAX Nic Salts
The MAX formula gives banana a richness that most banana ice nic salts lack. Rather than a synthetic banana-flavour-candy note, Vampire Vape MAX Banana Ice reads as genuinely fruit-forward — sweeter, more natural, and with an ice finish that’s bold rather than delicate.
Pineapple Ice — Riot Bar EDTN Nic Salts
Riot’s Bar EDTN range is specifically designed to replicate the flavour intensity of disposable vapes in a nic salt format, and Pineapple Ice is one of their strongest performers. The pineapple is sharp and tropical, the ice hit is immediate, and the overall profile has the intensity that former disposable users in particular tend to prefer.
Banana Kiwi Ice — Riot Bar EDTN Nic Salts
A less obvious pairing that works exceptionally well — the creaminess of banana balances the tartness of kiwi, and the ice finish gives the whole blend a crispness that makes it genuinely refreshing. One of the more distinctive ice profiles in the Bar EDTN range.
Cool Mint & Mojito-Style Nic Salts
Between pure menthol and fruit ice sits a distinct sub-category — cool mint and mojito-style profiles. These are for vapers who want more complexity than a straight menthol but something more herbal and cool than a fruit ice blend.
White Vape Co Ice Mint Nic Salt
Our own-brand Ice Mint delivers sharp, clean peppermint with a powerful cooling finish — closer to an after-dinner mint than a menthol cigarette. It’s a distinctly refreshing profile that works well as a palate cleanser between other flavours and as a standalone all-day vape for vapers who prefer something with genuine mint character.
Mojito — Swish Nic Salts (by Mix Labs)
Swish’s Mojito is one of the most refined cool-mint profiles in the current nic salt market. Lime, mint, and a subtle sweetness — it captures the essence of the cocktail in a way that’s refreshing without being sharp. The Mix Labs formula keeps the coolness measured rather than maximal, making it genuinely complex. An outstanding choice for vapers who find straight menthol one-dimensional.
Ice N Berg — Doozy Seriously Salty
A premium cool menthol profile from Doozy that sits between a traditional menthol and an ice nic salt in character. The cooling is deep and sustained rather than sharp and immediate — it builds through the inhale and lingers on the exhale. One of the most satisfying menthol-style nic salts in the Doozy range.
Mint Blast — Nic Salts
As the name suggests, this is not a subtle profile. Mint Blast delivers an intense, fast-hitting peppermint that’s best suited to vapers who want maximum cooling impact. Not an all-day vape for everyone, but unrivalled for the sheer intensity of the mint experience it delivers.
White Vape Co Eissenbetta Nic Salt
One of our more distinctive own-brand flavours, Eissenbetta is a cool, slightly sweet profile inspired by classic European menthol blends. The cooling has a smoother, more rounded character compared to sharp peppermint profiles — ideal for vapers who find straight mint too aggressive but want something cooler than a conventional menthol.
White Vape Co Menthol Shortfills — UK-Made, Nationally Delivered
While nic salts dominate the menthol category for pod kit users, our own-brand 50ml shortfill range has become one of our strongest performing lines nationally — particularly the menthol and ice variants. Made in the UK to TPD-compliant standards, every White Vape Co shortfill is designed to deliver the same flavour consistency you’d expect from a premium brand at a price that makes stocking up genuinely affordable.
Each 50ml shortfill comes with room for one nic shot, allowing you to set your preferred nicotine strength using our nic shot calculator to work out the exact number of shots needed. The 70/30 VG/PG ratio is optimised for sub-ohm and DTL devices, delivering excellent cloud production and flavour density at typical sub-ohm wattages.
Classic Menthol — White Vape Co 50ml Shortfill
Our best-selling shortfill. Classic Menthol in the 50ml format delivers the same clean, accurate menthol profile as the nic salt version, scaled up for sub-ohm vaping. The higher VG content makes the coolness feel smoother and more enveloping compared to a 50/50 nic salt, and the flavour holds its accuracy even at higher wattages. Whether you’re a long-standing DTL vaper or making the upgrade from a pod kit, this is the reference standard for menthol shortfills.
Blueberry Ice — White Vape Co 50ml Shortfill
Sweet, ripe blueberry with a punchy ice finish — one of our most popular flavoured ice shortfills both in store and online. The blueberry profile is accurate and full-bodied, and the ice hit is pronounced enough to keep every puff feeling genuinely fresh. Works exceptionally well at 65–80W with a 0.2Ω mesh coil for maximum flavour expression.
Black Ice — White Vape Co 50ml Shortfill
A darker, more complex ice profile — blackcurrant and mixed dark berries with deep cooling. Black Ice has a tartness that distinguishes it from the sweeter fruit ice profiles, making it a favourite for vapers who want an ice shortfill with genuine depth rather than straightforward fruit sweetness. One of our consistently highest-rated own-brand flavours.
Refreshers — White Vape Co 50ml Shortfill
Inspired by the classic sweet, Refreshers captures that sharp, fizzy citrus and cool sensation in shortfill form. It sits between a cool-mint and a fruit ice profile — bright, tangy, and refreshing without being either too fruity or too herbal. A versatile all-day vape that appeals to a broader range of palates than most menthol shortfills.
Spearmint Gum — White Vape Co 50ml Shortfill
Spearmint rather than peppermint — a sweeter, more rounded mint profile that’s distinct from both the herbal character of menthol and the sharpness of ice mint. Spearmint Gum is the most approachable mint shortfill in the range and has built a strong following among vapers who want something cool without the intensity of a full menthol or ice profile.
All five menthol shortfills are available online with free delivery on orders over £25, and in stock across our three Hampshire stores. Browse the full White Vape Co own-brand range to see the complete shortfill collection.
Which Devices Work Best with Menthol & Ice E-Liquids?
Device choice matters for menthol and ice profiles more than most other flavour categories, because the cooling sensation is directly affected by how the vapour is produced and at what temperature.
For nic salts, low-powered pod kits operating between 10W and 20W are ideal. The cooler vapour temperature at lower wattages means the cooling agents in menthol and ice nic salts are preserved and delivered more effectively — the cooling hits harder in a pod kit than it would in a high-powered device. Devices like the OXVA Xlim Go 2 and Xlim Go Lite are particularly well suited to menthol nic salts, with their tight MTL draw and consistent low-temperature vapour production.
For menthol shortfills, sub-ohm devices operating between 50W and 80W with a 0.2Ω mesh coil will give you the fullest expression of the flavour. At these wattages the high-VG formula produces dense, cool vapour with genuine depth of flavour. Our team across all three Southampton-area vape stores can advise on the right device and coil combination for the shortfill you’re using.
Switching from Menthol Cigarettes? Start Here
If you smoked menthol cigarettes and you’re considering switching to vaping, menthol nic salts are the most natural starting point. The cooling sensation replicates a significant part of what made menthol cigarettes satisfying, and the nicotine delivery from a 20mg nic salt in a pod kit closely matches the speed and intensity of a cigarette.
White Vape Co is an official Smoke Free Hampshire partner. If you’re based in Hampshire, our team at any of our three stores — Totton, Hythe, and Holbury — can connect you with NHS-backed stop smoking support, help you access free starter kits, and guide you through choosing the right menthol nic salt and device combination to make the switch as easy as possible. There’s no charge for the advice and no obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best menthol nic salts UK vapers rate in 2026?
The most consistently rated include Double Menthol by FRUZA for pure menthol users, Watermelon Ice and Mango Ice by Mix Labs for fruit ice fans, and Ice N Berg by Doozy for a premium cool experience. White Vape Co’s own-brand menthol nic salt range offers outstanding value from £2.49.
Are menthol nic salts good for smokers switching from menthol cigarettes?
Yes — the cooling sensation closely replicates what menthol cigarette smokers associate with their habit, making the switch feel more natural. Start with 20mg in a pod kit for the closest experience to what you were used to.
What is the difference between menthol and ice nic salts?
Pure menthol nic salts deliver a clean, cool, slightly herbal flavour similar to menthol cigarettes. Ice nic salts combine a fruit flavour with a cooling agent for a sharp, cold exhale. Both use similar cooling compounds, but ice profiles tend to be sweeter and more fruit-forward than pure menthol.
Can I use menthol nic salts in a shortfill?
Nic salts and shortfills are different products for different devices. Menthol nic salts are 10ml bottles for pod kits and MTL devices. Menthol shortfills are 50ml bottles for sub-ohm DTL devices — add a nic shot to reach your preferred strength. White Vape Co produces five menthol and ice shortfills including Classic Menthol, Blueberry Ice, Black Ice, Refreshers, and Spearmint Gum.
What nic salt strength should I use for menthol flavours?
Base your strength choice on your smoking history, not the flavour. Former menthol cigarette smokers switching to vaping should start with 20mg. See our nic salt strength guide for personalised advice.
