Nasty Liq Fizzy Cherry 10ml 20mg: what you are actually buying

Nasty Liq Nic Salts Fizzy Cherry is a 10ml bottle of nicotine salt e-liquid from Nasty Juice, the Malaysian e-liquid house better known to many UK vapers for its freebase shortfills. The Nasty Liq range is the brand's nic salt line, built for people who use pod kits, small refillable devices and other low-power setups rather than big sub-ohm tanks. This listing is the 20mg/ml strength in the Fizzy Cherry flavour.

To be clear about the product category before anything else: this is a refill liquid, not a disposable vape and not a complete device. You need a refillable pod kit, a pen-style kit or a similar low-wattage device to use it. If you arrived here from a search for disposables, it is worth knowing that single-use vapes can no longer be sold in the UK since the June 2025 ban, which is one reason refillable pod systems and bottled nic salts have taken over the space those products used to fill.

The key facts at a glance:

• Bottle size: 10ml, which is the maximum container size allowed for nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK
• Nicotine type: nicotine salt, which is smoother at higher strengths than traditional freebase nicotine
• Strength: 20mg/ml (2%), which is the UK legal maximum for nicotine e-liquid
• Flavour: Fizzy Cherry, a sweet cherry with a soda-style sparkle
• Best suited to: pod kits and mouth-to-lung devices with coils around 0.6 to 1.2 ohm
• Age restriction: 18+ only, with age verification on delivery orders

The rest of this guide goes through the flavour, the nicotine strength, which devices to pair it with, how to fill and use it, how long a bottle tends to last, what to do when something goes wrong, and how it compares with other nic salt ranges at a similar price. We have tried to be straight about where it suits people and where another liquid or strength would be the better choice.

Flavour profile: how Fizzy Cherry tastes

Fizzy Cherry sits in the sweet, fruity, soda-leaning corner of the flavour map. Think of a cherry fizzy drink or a cherry cola sweet rather than a fresh-picked cherry or a dessert cherry pie. The cherry note is the confectionery kind: bright, a little tart at the front and sweet through the middle. The fizzy part is a slightly sharp, tingling impression on the tongue that mimics carbonation. It is an impression created by flavouring and sweetener balance, not an actual cooling or menthol effect, so do not expect it to be icy.

What you can expect across a single puff:

• Inhale: a quick hit of sweet red cherry with a faint tangy edge
• Mid-draw: the fizzy, candy-like layer comes forward and rounds the cherry into something closer to a soda or a sherbet sweet
• Exhale: a lingering sweet cherry aftertaste with very little dryness or bitterness

This is not a subtle liquid. Nic salt flavours tend to be mixed on the strong side because users vape them at low wattage where flavour has to carry through a small amount of vapour. If you normally vape delicate tobacco or fruit blends, Fizzy Cherry will probably taste noticeably sweeter and more candy-like than you are used to.

A few practical notes on flavour behaviour:

• Sweet fruit liquids tend to leave more residue on the coil, so the flavour can fade sooner than it would with a tobacco or menthol liquid. That is the coil, not the liquid going off.
• Cherry is a flavour many vapers describe as getting noticeably weaker when the coil is tired. If it starts tasting flat or slightly burnt, swap the coil before you blame the bottle.
• If you are coming from a menthol or ice flavour, the lack of cooling can feel like less throat sensation. The nicotine and PG still deliver some throat hit, just without the icy edge.

If you like the flavour but want it with a chilled finish, the usual approach is to look at the brand's cherry-ice or menthol-leaning options rather than try to add anything to this bottle. Do not mix additives or other flavourings into nicotine e-liquid; a sealed, factory-mixed bottle is the safest and most consistent way to vape.

Nicotine strength: is 20mg/ml right for you?

The 20mg/ml figure on this bottle means 2% nicotine by volume, and that is the highest strength that can legally be sold in the UK. Nicotine salts are a different form of nicotine from the freebase nicotine used in most shortfills and larger-bottle liquids. Because salts are less alkaline, they feel smoother in the throat, which is why a 20mg salt is generally comfortable to inhale while a 20mg freebase liquid would be harsh for almost everyone.

A rough guide to choosing a strength with nic salts:

• 20mg/ml: aimed at people coming off 15 or more cigarettes a day, or anyone who finds lower strengths leave them reaching for a cigarette within an hour or so
• 10mg/ml: a better fit for lighter smokers, people who have already stepped down, or anyone who finds 20mg gives them dizziness, nausea or a racing heart
• 5mg/ml and below: usually for people close to quitting nicotine altogether or using larger, higher-powered devices

A few things to remember if you are choosing this strength:

• Strong does not mean stronger throat hit only. At 20mg you absorb a lot of nicotine quickly. If you are chain-vaping without thinking, you may be taking in more than you intended.
• Non-smokers should not start on 20mg. This strength is designed for people who currently smoke or have recently stopped smoking and need a satisfying substitute. If you have never smoked, a nicotine-free option is the sensible choice.
• Watch for symptoms of too much nicotine. Headache, light-headedness, nausea or a pounding pulse mean you should stop vaping and drop to a lower strength.
• Avoid using 20mg in a high-power device. Nic salts at high wattage deliver much more nicotine per puff than the strength suggests. They are designed for low-power use.

Many people find that a good plan is to start on 20mg when they first stop smoking, then step down to 10mg after a few weeks once cravings settle. Stepping down in strength gradually tends to be easier than stopping abruptly. If you want to talk it through with someone, UK stop-smoking services and pharmacists can advise on combining vaping with other support, and many local services offer free help.

Nicotine is addictive. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or are taking medication, speak to a pharmacist or GP before using any nicotine product.

Compatible devices and coil technology

This is one of the most important sections because it decides whether you enjoy the liquid or not. Nic salts are formulated for devices that generate a modest amount of vapour at low power. In practice, that means three kinds of hardware.

• Refillable pod kits: the main use case. These typically have a built-in battery of roughly 400 to 1,000mAh, a pod that holds around 2ml, and a coil with a resistance from about 0.6 to 1.2 ohm. Fixed-power or auto-draw pod kits are ideal for this liquid because the device sets the output for you.
• Pen-style and compact variable-wattage kits: fine as long as you keep the wattage low, usually in the 8 to 25W range, with a coil of about 0.8 ohm or above.
• Small MTL (mouth-to-lung) tanks: with a tighter airflow and a higher-resistance coil, these also work well.

What to avoid: large sub-ohm tanks running at 40W or more. Nic salts in a high-powered device can make the nicotine delivery overwhelming and will chew through liquid at a rate that makes no sense for a 10ml bottle. If you vape in that style, a freebase shortfill at a low nicotine strength is the better match.

On coil technology, the two coil types you will meet in this category are:

• Mesh coils: a flat sheet of mesh with a large heating area. They tend to give more even flavour and warm up quickly. They suit sweet liquids like cherry fairly well, but sugars can build up on mesh over time, so replace them when flavour dulls.
• Wire-wound cotton coils: the traditional style. Often found in the 0.8 to 1.2 ohm range for MTL pods. They tend to give a slightly warmer vapour and a tighter draw.

The 20mg strength is less forgiving of coil choices than lower strengths. If your coil resistance is below about 0.6 ohm, the device will almost certainly run at power levels that are too high for a 20mg salt.

When you put a fresh coil in, let the new coil soak for five to ten minutes after priming. This avoids dry hits, where the cotton has not absorbed enough liquid and you taste burnt cotton. We would rather you wait a few minutes than burn a new coil on its first puff.

Performance and puff delivery

With a nic salt liquid, performance is judged differently from a big-cloud freebase. You are looking at three things: how quickly the nicotine hits, how it feels in the throat, and how satisfying the vapour is given the small amount produced.

Nicotine delivery. Nicotine salts absorb quickly. Many smokers say a 20mg salt gets closer to the speed of a cigarette than traditional low-strength freebase does, which is the whole reason this format exists. In a typical pod kit, most people notice the effect within a few puffs. If it feels too intense, the fix is to shorten your puffs or move down a strength rather than to adjust the device upwards.

Throat hit. You should expect a moderate throat hit at 20mg. It is gentler than a 20mg freebase would be but noticeably firmer than a 10mg salt. The PG content of the liquid helps carry the flavour and gives the sensation of a hit at the back of the throat. If you find it too sharp, drawing slowly and softly almost always helps.

Vapour production. This is a low-power liquid used in low-power devices, so vapour clouds are modest. A mouth-to-lung puff produces a thin, quick-dissipating plume rather than a large cloud. If big clouds matter to you, nic salts are the wrong tool.

Consistency across the bottle. Nic salts at this price point are mixed in volume and the batch consistency from the Nasty Juice factory is generally reliable. You should not see big swings in flavour between bottles of the same batch. Shelf life is typically printed on the bottle as a best-before date, and keeping the liquid out of heat and direct light helps preserve flavour.

Puff count in practice. Because this is a liquid, there is no fixed puff count. As a planning figure, a moderate vaper in a 2ml pod kit tends to get through a pod in roughly a day or a day and a half, and a 10ml bottle fills a 2ml pod around five times. That is an estimate, not a lab measurement. Your own puff length and device settings will change the maths either way.

Bottle design and build quality

Nasty Liq bottles are 10ml plastic dropper-style bottles, and the packaging follows the usual UK format for nicotine liquids. A bottle for this strength carries the required warnings, the nicotine content, the batch number and the best-before date. The nozzle is a narrow tip that is made to fit most pod fill ports.

What to look for when the bottle arrives:

• Tamper-evident seal: there should be a ring on the cap that breaks the first time you open it. If it is already broken, contact us before using the bottle.
• Child-resistant cap: UK rules require nicotine liquid to come in a child-resistant container. Push down and turn the cap to open it. It takes a firm grip, and that is by design.
• Thin nozzle: the narrow tip makes it easier to fill the small port on a typical pod kit without spilling. Some pods have a very tight port, so a gentle squeeze is better than a hard squeeze.
• Label legibility: check the strength on the label. It should read 20mg/ml (or 2%) and match what you ordered.

The plastic is soft enough to squeeze but holds its shape. After a few weeks of use, the tip can collect dried residue. A quick wipe with a dry tissue each time you refill prevents this and keeps the cap sealing properly.

Storage is straightforward. Keep the bottle upright, with the cap fully closed, somewhere cool and out of sunlight. Do not leave it in a hot car. Keep it well away from children and pets, because nicotine liquid is toxic if swallowed or if it gets on skin in quantity. If a spill happens, wipe it up with a paper towel and wash your hands with soap and water.

On the environmental side, an empty bottle should be rinsed and left to dry before you put it in household plastic recycling, as long as your local council accepts small plastics. Check your council's guidance, because rules vary between areas. Do not put e-liquid bottles with liquid still inside into household recycling.

Battery and charging: what matters on the device side

A bottle of liquid has no battery of its own, so this section is about the device you pair it with. The battery in your pod kit affects how this liquid performs more than most people expect.

Most refillable pod kits ship with a built-in battery between roughly 400mAh and 1,000mAh. For a 20mg nic salt at moderate use, a battery in the 500 to 800mAh range usually lasts a day of normal vaping. Heavier use will need a top-up midday. A bigger battery does not mean more vapour, it just means more time between charges.

Good charging habits:

• Use the cable that came with the kit. Most current kits charge over USB-C. A cable from a reputable brand rated for the same charging current is acceptable.
• Use a standard 5V wall adapter or a computer USB port. Avoid fast-charging adapters unless the manufacturer says the device supports them.
• Do not charge overnight or leave a device unattended. Lithium cells can fail, and the risk is small but real.
• Do not use a damaged device. If the case is cracked, swollen or hot to the touch while charging, stop using it and take it to a recycling point.
• Charge at room temperature. Charging in a hot car or on a radiator shortens battery life and adds risk.

A fading battery changes how a nic salt behaves. Low voltage means weaker heating, so vapour thins, flavour dulls and you may find yourself drawing harder. If a pod kit that tasted fine yesterday seems weak today, charge it before you assume the liquid or the coil is the problem.

When the device finally reaches the end of its life, do not put it in household rubbish. UK law treats vapes and the batteries inside them as electrical waste. You can drop them at household waste recycling centres, and shops that sell vaping products are required to take back used devices. Remove the pod and empty the liquid first if you can, and never try to take the battery out of a sealed device yourself.

How to fill and use Nasty Liq Fizzy Cherry

Filling a pod is quick once you have done it a couple of times. Follow these steps for the cleanest result.

• Wash your hands and clear a flat surface. Put a paper towel down in case of drips.
• Switch the device off and remove the pod if it is a removable-pod design. Check the pod is the right way up before you start.
• Open the fill port. Most kits use a silicone bung or a sliding cover. Do not force it.
• Fill slowly to just below the maximum line. Squeeze the bottle gently. Do not overfill, because liquid that reaches the airflow channel can leak into the mouthpiece and flood the coil.
• Close the port fully and wipe away any excess liquid from the outside of the pod.
• Let the pod rest for five to ten minutes. This allows the cotton to saturate, especially after fitting a new coil. It is the single best way to avoid a dry or burnt first puff.
• Refit the pod and take the first few puffs gently. Short, soft draws let the coil warm up without scorching the cotton.

When you are using the device day to day:

• Take slow, gentle puffs of two to three seconds. Longer, harder draws at 20mg can be overwhelming.
• Pace yourself. Nic salts are easy to vape continuously because they are smooth. Set a rhythm of a few puffs at a time instead of chaining.
• Top up before the pod is empty. Running a coil dry is the fastest way to ruin it.
• Do not switch flavours without cleaning. If you move from another liquid to Fizzy Cherry, rinse the pod or fit a new coil. Mixed flavours get muddy quickly.

For a mouth-to-lung style, inhale into the mouth first, pause, then breathe the vapour down. Direct-to-lung inhaling is not recommended for a 20mg nic salt, and it is not what the hardware is designed for.

How long a 10ml bottle lasts and how often to change coils

The honest answer is that it depends on you, but here is a realistic way to think about it.

A typical 2ml pod holds about a day's worth of vaping for a moderate user and less for someone who vapes all day. With a 10ml bottle, that gives you about five pod fills. For lighter users, a bottle might stretch to a week or more. For heavy users, it might last three to four days. This is a guide based on common usage patterns, not a guarantee, and your puff length, wattage and coil all change the numbers.

Factors that affect how quickly you use it:

• Puff length and frequency. Longer, more frequent puffs draw more liquid.
• Coil resistance and power. A lower-resistance coil or higher wattage burns through more liquid.
• Nicotine strength. Stronger liquids often lead to less puffing, because you reach satisfaction sooner. This is one reason some people find 20mg actually uses less liquid than 10mg.
• Ambient temperature. Cold conditions thicken the liquid and slightly reduce flow, while warm conditions have the opposite effect.

Coil life is the other cost to plan for. A coil usually lasts anywhere from one to three weeks depending on how often you vape and how sweet your liquid is. Sweet, sugary liquids like Fizzy Cherry tend to build up residue, which shortens coil life compared with unsweetened tobacco liquids. Signs a coil needs replacing include:

• flavour fading or tasting flat
• a burnt or slightly acrid taste, even when the pod is full
• gurgling, leaking or spitting
• darkened, crusty cotton visible through the pod

Replace the coil as soon as you see any of these. It is a small cost compared with the frustration of vaping a dull or burnt flavour, and it protects the quality of the liquid you are paying for.

Troubleshooting common problems

Most problems with nic salt liquids come from the device side rather than from the bottle. These are the issues we hear about most often.

• Burnt taste. Usually a dry hit from a coil that was not primed, or a pod that ran low on liquid. Refill, let it soak for ten minutes and try again. If the taste stays, the coil is probably damaged and needs replacing.
• Weak or flat flavour. Check the battery, then the coil. A tired coil is the most common cause. If both are fine, consider that you may be used to a very different flavour profile and your palate needs a day or two to adjust.
• Leaking from the pod or mouthpiece. Often caused by overfilling or an air bubble. Do not fill above the max line, make sure the pod is seated correctly and keep the device upright when not in use. Cold or hot environments can also trigger leaks.
• Gurgling. Condensation in the airflow path. Blow gently through the mouthpiece with the pod removed, then wipe the connection points dry.
• Throat feels too harsh. The strength may be too high for you or the device may be running too hot. Try shorter, softer draws, then consider moving to 10mg.
• Dizziness or nausea. A sign of too much nicotine, particularly if you are new to vaping. Stop, sit down, drink water, and switch to a lower strength next time.
• Device will not fire. Check the charge, make sure the pod is seated firmly, and clean the contacts with a dry cotton bud. If it still does not fire, the pod may be empty or the coil may have failed.
• Liquid seems thicker or thinner than normal. Temperature can change viscosity. Let the bottle sit at room temperature for a few minutes before use.

If you have tried these steps and still have a problem with the liquid itself, such as a bottle that smells off or is the wrong strength, stop using it and contact us with your order number and a photo of the batch label.

Who Nasty Liq Fizzy Cherry is for, and who should skip it

No single liquid suits everybody. Here is a straightforward view of who tends to get on with this one and who is likely to be better off elsewhere.

It is likely to suit you if:

• you currently smoke and want a fast-acting nicotine substitute in a pod kit
• you enjoy sweet, candy-like fruit flavours and want something that tastes like a cherry soda
• you use a refillable pod kit or a low-wattage pen-style device
• you want a compact 10ml bottle that is easy to carry and top up from
• you prefer a smooth throat feel at a strength that stands in for cigarettes

You should probably look elsewhere if:

• you have never smoked or used nicotine. Nicotine-free options are the sensible choice, and 20mg is not for you.
• you use a sub-ohm tank at high wattage. A freebase shortfill is the better match.
• you find sweet liquids cloying. A tobacco, menthol or lightly fruity liquid will be more comfortable.
• you are already close to quitting nicotine and want a lower strength. Look at 10mg or 5mg options.
• you are under 18. It is illegal to sell nicotine products to anyone under 18, and we verify age on delivery.

Health reminders. Vaping is widely regarded by UK health bodies as far less harmful than smoking, but it is not risk-free and it is not recommended for non-smokers. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a health condition, speak to a healthcare professional first. Keep all vaping products away from children and pets.

If you are not sure whether to pick 20mg or 10mg, a practical approach is to order the strength you think you need and the next one down. You can see which suits you over the first week and use the other in the second month as you step down.

Value for money and how it compares with similar nic salts

Nic salt bottles in the 10ml format typically sit in the low single-digit pounds per bottle at UK retailers, and promotional multi-buys are common. Check the live price on this page for today's figure rather than relying on a number written into an article.

To judge value, consider cost in three ways:

• Cost per bottle: low, and bundle deals can bring it down further
• Cost per day of vaping: at around two millilitres a day for a moderate user, a 10ml bottle covers about five days, so the daily cost is a fraction of a typical pack of cigarettes
• Cost including coils: add the cost of a replacement coil or pod every one to three weeks to get a realistic monthly total

Compared with a disposable vape, a refillable pod kit and a bottle of nic salts costs more up front for the hardware but much less over a month, and it avoids the single-use waste that led to the disposable ban.

How it stacks up against other ranges. Plenty of brands sell 10ml 20mg nic salts in similar fruit and candy flavours, and a fair comparison is possible without picking a winner:

• Elfliq and other disposable-brand liquids: these are closely aligned with the flavours that became popular on single-use devices. If you liked that style, they are a reasonable alternative, and Fizzy Cherry sits in a similar sweet space.
• IVG Salts and similar mainstream ranges: usually offer a broader selection of flavours, including more tobacco and menthol options. If variety matters to you, these ranges have more choice.
• Dinner Lady and other premium-leaning nic salts: often cost a little more and lean on dessert and complex blends. If you want layered flavours rather than a straight candy cherry, they are worth a look.
• Doozy and other multi-bottle bundle brands: sometimes the cheapest per millilitre, with the trade-off that flavour intensity varies more between flavours.

Where Nasty Liq tends to sit well is in having a recognisable brand with bold, clear flavours at a mainstream price. Where it is less compelling is if you want a very natural fruit taste or a wide tobacco line-up. In short, it is good value if you like what it tastes like, and a poor choice if you do not, because no liquid is cheap if it ends up unused.
