Nic Nic Shots
Nic Nic is the most popular brand of nicotine shots in the UK. Nic shots are a versatile and essential product for vapers who use shortfill vape liquid, as they allow for precise customisation of nicotine strength.
Nic Nic
Nic Nic is a My Vapery-owned UK nicotine shot brand and the most widely stocked nicotine shot range in the country. Each 10ml shot is flavourless (with one exception - the Ice variant) and is mixed into 0mg shortfill vape liquid to turn it into a nicotine-containing e-liquid. The full Nic Nic range is available at E-liquids.com across five variants - different PG/VG ratios to match your shortfill's base, a nic salt option for smoother throat hits, and an ice version that adds menthol alongside the nicotine.

Nic Nic FAQs
Which Nic Nic shot should I use with my shortfill?
The right Nic Nic shot depends on the PG/VG ratio of your shortfill vape juice. A standard 50/50 shortfill takes the Low VG shot. A 70/30 (70 percent VG) shortfill - the most common sub-ohm shortfill format - takes the High VG shot. Maximum-VG shortfills at 80/20 or above take the Max VG (100% VG) shot. Matching the ratios keeps the vapour and throat hit consistent after the shot is mixed in.
Should I pick a freebase or nic salt Nic Nic shot?
Freebase shots use standard freebase nicotine, the default for shortfill mixing - they give a stronger throat hit and pair well with high-VG sub-ohm setups. The Salt shot uses nicotine salts instead, which feel smoother at higher concentrations and absorb faster. Pick the Salt shot if you want to convert a 0mg shortfill into a nicotine salt mix suited to an MTL pod kit, rather than a freebase mix for sub-ohm vaping.
How do you mix a Nic Nic shot into a shortfill?
For a 50ml shortfill: add one 10ml 18mg shot to make 60ml at roughly 3mg nicotine strength. For a 100ml shortfill: add two 10ml 18mg nic shots to make 120ml at roughly 3mg strength. Shake the bottle well after adding the shot, then leave it to settle for a few minutes before vaping. Salt shot strengths differ - the product page lists the exact strength for each variant.
