Yeti Original 100ml Cola Overview

Yeti Original 100ml Cola is a nicotine-free shortfill e-liquid from Yeti, a brand that has built its reputation in the UK on sweet, drink-style and fruit flavours sold in large, good-value bottles. This particular bottle recreates the taste of a classic fizzy cola: a sweet, caramelised base with a gentle citrus lift and a faint spiced edge that most people will recognise from a glass of cola poured over ice. It is a one-flavour product, which means the recipe stays focused instead of layering lots of competing notes.

The format matters as much as the flavour. A shortfill is sold at 0mg nicotine, which is why the bottle can be much larger than the 10ml limit that applies to nicotine-containing e-liquid in the UK. The 100ml of liquid is supplied in a bottle with extra headroom, so you can add nicotine shots yourself if you want to reach a strength of up to 3mg per ml. If you prefer zero nicotine, you can use it exactly as it comes.

Quick facts at a glance, based on the standard Yeti Original shortfill format. Always confirm the final details on the label of the bottle you receive, because manufacturers can adjust formulations between batches.

• Product type: shortfill e-liquid, nicotine-free as supplied
• Liquid volume: 100ml, in an oversized bottle with room for two 10ml nicotine shots
• Typical base: a VG-dominant blend, usually 70% VG and 30% PG
• Flavour: cola with citrus and light spice notes
• Best suited to: sub-ohm tanks and higher-wattage kits, mesh or high-VG-friendly coils
• Age restriction: 18+ only, sold to adults who already smoke or vape

This guide walks through how the liquid performs, what it tastes like, how to mix it, which devices suit it, and where it sits against other options. It is written for UK vapers and keeps to what can reasonably be said about a 70/30 shortfill rather than making big promises. If you have never used a shortfill before, the sections on nicotine strength and mixing are worth reading first, because that is where most first-time buyers go wrong.

One point of regulation is worth stating early. In the UK, nicotine-containing e-liquid is capped at 20mg per ml, and refill bottles for nicotine liquid are capped at 10ml. Single-use disposable vapes, which were also subject to that same 20mg cap, have been banned from sale in Great Britain since 1 June 2025. A shortfill like this one is a refillable-system product and is not affected by the disposable ban.

Performance and Puff Delivery

Because this is a liquid rather than a device, there is no fixed puff count printed on the bottle in the way there would be on a prefilled product. What can be done is to work out a realistic estimate from how e-liquid is consumed in typical hardware. On a sub-ohm tank running somewhere between 30W and 60W, many vapers find that one millilitre of liquid gives roughly 20 to 50 puffs, depending on draw length and wattage. On that basis, a 100ml bottle represents somewhere in the region of 2,000 to 5,000 puffs. Treat that as a working estimate, not a guarantee, because lower-wattage setups stretch the liquid further and high-wattage direct-to-lung vaping uses it faster.

The 70/30 VG-dominant blend is the main driver of performance. Higher VG produces dense, visible vapour and a rounded, soft inhale. The 30% PG carries flavour and provides a little throat hit, which is why the liquid does not feel flat even at 0mg. If you add two 18mg nicotine shots, the blend shifts slightly towards PG, and the final mix lands at around 67% VG and 33% PG, which still sits comfortably in the range that sub-ohm coils are designed for.

What to expect in use:

• Vapour production: medium to large clouds on a sub-ohm coil, noticeably thinner on small low-power pod devices
• Throat hit: light at 0mg, gentle to moderate at 3mg once nicotine shots are added
• Inhale style: best as a direct-to-lung draw, though some people use a looser mouth-to-lung draw on 0.6 to 0.8 ohm mesh coils
• Flavour consistency: stays steady across the tank, helped by the thinner PG fraction wicking quickly into the coil

A thicker liquid does ask more of your hardware. VG-heavy blends move through cotton more slowly than 50/50 mixes, so a coil with large wicking ports or a mesh surface area copes better than a small, tight-fitting coil. If you notice a drop in flavour mid-puff or a faint burnt note, the usual cause is a coil that is being fired too hard for the liquid it can pull in, not a fault with the e-liquid itself. Lowering the wattage by five or ten watts, or lengthening the gap between puffs, usually resolves it.

Compared with disposable vapes, which deliver a fixed, capped experience until they run flat, a shortfill gives you control over wattage, airflow and strength. That control is where the performance comes from, and it is also why the setup takes a little more learning at the start.

Flavour Profile

The cola in this bottle is built the way most cola flavourings are: a sweet caramel and vanilla foundation, a bright citrus top note that reads as lemon or lime, and a background of warm spice that is often described as cinnamon or nutmeg. The result is recognisably cola rather than a generic brown-sweet flavour, which can happen with weaker recipes. The sweetness is present but not syrupy, and the citrus keeps it from tasting heavy over a long session.

Walking through a puff from start to finish:

• Inhale: a quick wash of citrus and soft sweetness that gives the impression of carbonation without any actual fizz
• Middle: caramel and vanilla take over, with the spice notes lifting slightly as the vapour warms
• Exhale: a clean, lightly sweet finish with a faint cola aftertaste that fades rather than lingers

It is worth being straightforward about what vaping cola can and cannot do. There is no real carbonation, so nobody should expect a fizzing sensation on the tongue. What the best cola e-liquids manage is an impression of fizz created by the sharp citrus top note, and this one does that adequately. If you want actual cooling, you would look to a menthol or ice variant of a similar flavour instead; the Original line is not positioned as an ice range.

Flavour intensity depends heavily on your hardware. On a mesh coil at moderate power, the cola reads clearly from the first puff. On a very high wattage setting, the sugars in the recipe can caramelise on the coil and shift the taste towards burnt sugar, so staying at the lower half of the coil's rated wattage range tends to keep the flavour true. Many vapers find that around 40W to 55W on a typical 0.2 to 0.3 ohm mesh coil is a sensible sweet spot.

Sweeteners deserve a mention. Like most dessert and drink flavours, cola recipes lean on sweetener, and sweeteners leave residue on coils faster than unsweetened liquids. This does not mean the liquid is inferior; it means that coil life will be a little shorter than with a fruit-and-menthol blend. Rinsing the tank when you change coils and priming new coils properly makes a visible difference to how long the flavour stays clean.

It also works as an all-day flavour for people who like to avoid fatiguing, ultra-sweet profiles. Because cola is a familiar taste, the novelty wears off less quickly than with a very elaborate multi-fruit blend, and most vapers who like the drink find the vape version a reasonable approximation.

Bottle Design and Build Quality

Shortfill bottles follow a fairly standard pattern across the UK market, and the Yeti Original bottle is consistent with it. The liquid comes in a soft plastic bottle with a long, narrow nozzle designed for filling tanks and for pouring in nicotine shots. The bottle is larger than the 100ml of liquid it holds, which is the deliberate headroom that lets you add up to two 10ml shots without pouring anything away.

Practical points about the packaging:

• Squeezable body: the plastic flexes enough to control the flow, which helps when filling a tank through a small port
• Narrow nozzle: reduces spills, though it can clog slightly if the cap is not wiped before closing
• Child-resistant cap: required on UK refill containers; it takes a firm press and turn, which is by design
• Tamper-evident seal: a break-away ring or foil seal confirms the bottle has not been opened before you receive it
• Label information: shows VG/PG ratio, volume, ingredients, batch code, and the required health warnings

Labelling is worth reading each time you buy. UK rules require ingredient lists and appropriate warnings on e-liquid packaging, and the batch number on the label is what you would quote if you ever needed to contact the retailer about a faulty bottle. A clear, uncracked label is also a sign that the bottle has been stored correctly.

On build quality, the main weak points are the nozzle tip and the cap thread. If the nozzle is overtightened, the thread can strip and the cap may not seal fully, which risks leaks in a bag or pocket. Store the bottle upright and keep the nozzle clean. Squeeze the bottle gently when filling so that liquid does not surge out.

The oversized bottle has one environmental side effect: it is plastic, and it is easy to dispose of badly. Once empty, a rinsed plastic bottle can usually go in your household plastics recycling, but local councils differ on how they treat bottles that held nicotine products, so check your council's guidance. Empty nicotine shot bottles in particular should be fully drained before disposal. If you are unsure, the Recycle Your Electricals postcode finder and your local household waste recycling centre can tell you what is accepted nearby.

Battery, Charging and Device Pairing

A bottle of e-liquid has no battery of its own, so the power side of the experience depends entirely on the device you pair it with. That makes this section less about the liquid and more about choosing hardware that suits a 70/30 shortfill. For a sub-ohm tank, the most common options are box mods and larger pen-style kits with a replaceable 18650 cell, or integrated-battery kits with capacities between roughly 1,500mAh and 3,000mAh.

As a general guide to matching battery to usage:

• Integrated kits at 1,500mAh to 2,000mAh: suitable for lighter use or lower-wattage mesh coils, usually needing a top-up charge once a day
• Integrated kits at 2,500mAh to 3,000mAh: better for all-day use at 40W to 60W on a mesh coil
• Removable 18650 batteries (typically 2,500mAh to 3,500mAh): allow you to carry a spare and swap when one runs flat

Charging guidance is the same as for any lithium device. Use the cable supplied with the kit or a reputable replacement, and a standard wall charger instead of a very high-output fast charger unless the manufacturer says it is supported. Do not leave a device charging unattended overnight on a soft surface such as a bed or sofa, and stop using any battery that is swollen, hot to the touch, or has a damaged wrap. If you use removable cells, always carry them in a case instead of loose in a pocket with keys or coins.

Choosing the wattage for a high-VG liquid is largely a battery management question. Running a coil at the top of its range drains the battery faster and shortens coil life. Staying at the middle of the range, around 40W to 50W for many mesh coils, gives a better balance of flavour, vapour and battery life.

When batteries or devices reach the end of their life, they should not go in general waste or the recycling bin, because lithium cells are a fire risk in collection vehicles and waste sites. UK law requires shops that sell vaping products to offer take-back for old devices, so the shop where you bought the kit is a straightforward drop-off point. Household waste recycling centres also take small electricals and batteries, and the Recycle Your Electricals website has a postcode search for nearby points. Remove the battery first where the device allows it, and tape over the terminals of loose cells before dropping them off.

Coil and Mesh Technology

Coil choice has more influence on how this e-liquid tastes than almost any other variable. A VG-dominant liquid needs a coil that can draw liquid in quickly enough to keep up with the power being applied, and that is why mesh coils have become the usual pairing for 70/30 shortfills. A mesh coil is a flat sheet of resistance wire in a fine grid pattern, held against cotton, so it heats a large surface area evenly instead of a few round wire loops. The result is a smoother heat, a more consistent flavour, and a reduced chance of dry spots.

Coil types you are likely to come across, and how they suit this liquid:

• Mesh coils, 0.15 to 0.3 ohm: a common choice for direct-to-lung vaping at 40W to 70W, producing steady flavour and large vapour
• Mesh coils, 0.4 to 0.6 ohm: work at lower wattages around 25W to 40W and suit a tighter, restricted draw
• Round wire sub-ohm coils, 0.2 to 0.5 ohm: usually fine for 70/30 as long as the wicking ports are large enough
• Small pod coils, 0.8 ohm and above: often struggle with 70% VG, giving weak flavour or gurgling, so check the pod manufacturer's recommended VG range first

Priming a new coil is the step that most beginners skip. Drip a few drops of liquid directly onto the exposed cotton through the wicking holes, fill the tank, and then wait five to ten minutes before firing. Use a few short, low-power puffs first. This lets the thick liquid soak fully into the cotton and avoids a burnt first taste, which can permanently damage a fresh coil.

Coil lifespan depends on use, but with a sweet, sugary liquid such as cola, expect a typical mesh coil to last roughly one to three weeks of regular vaping. Signs a coil is ready to change include a muted or slightly burnt flavour, a darker liquid in the tank, a gurgling sound, or a noticeably harsher throat hit. Switching early is cheaper than persevering with a tired coil, because a burnt coil can also taint the next one if the tank is not rinsed.

If you are curious about the technical side, resistance and wattage are linked. A lower-resistance coil draws more current from the battery at a given voltage and tends to produce more vapour, while a higher-resistance coil is gentler on the battery and produces less. Matching a coil to your battery and your preferred draw style, instead of simply picking the lowest ohm rating, is the quickest way to get a pleasant vape from this liquid.

Nicotine Strength Guidance

Yeti Original 100ml Cola is supplied at 0mg nicotine. That is how shortfills legally reach 100ml in the UK, since nicotine-containing refill bottles are limited to 10ml. If you want nicotine in it, you add it yourself with 10ml nicotine shots, which are sold separately and are typically 18mg per ml. The bottle is oversized so that two shots fit.

The arithmetic is simple and worth checking before you mix. Multiply the strength of the shots by the number of shots and by 10 to get the total milligrams of nicotine, then divide by the final volume of liquid in the bottle.

• No shots: 100ml at 0mg per ml
• One 10ml shot at 18mg: 110ml in total, giving about 1.6mg per ml
• Two 10ml shots at 18mg: 120ml in total, giving 3mg per ml

Which strength suits whom? There is no universal answer, but the following guidance is a sensible starting point for adults who already use nicotine:

• 0mg: for people who vape out of habit or taste, or who have already stepped nicotine down to nothing
• Around 1.5mg to 2mg: for light smokers or ex-smokers who are partway through reducing their intake
• 3mg: the usual top strength for a 100ml shortfill, matched to sub-ohm vaping where a large volume of vapour delivers a meaningful amount of nicotine per puff

If you smoked heavily and find that 3mg does not satisfy you in a sub-ohm setup, a shortfill is probably not the right product. Reaching 6mg in a 100ml bottle would take over thirty millilitres of 18mg shots, which does not fit in the bottle, and it is a fiddly job in any case. A pre-mixed 10ml bottle in a higher strength, or a nicotine salt liquid in a pod kit, is the more practical route. Nicotine salts allow strengths up to the 20mg per ml UK cap with a smoother throat feel, and they are designed for low-power devices instead of sub-ohm tanks.

On the legal side, the 20mg per ml ceiling applies to every nicotine-containing e-liquid and prefilled product sold in the UK, including what disposables used to carry before their sale was banned in Great Britain on 1 June 2025. The nicotine shots sold for mixing sit comfortably below that limit at 18mg.

Nicotine is addictive. This product is intended for adult smokers or existing vapers, and non-smokers and anyone under 18 should not use it. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, and people with heart conditions or other medical concerns, should speak to a doctor or pharmacist before using nicotine products. If you want to stop nicotine altogether, the NHS stop smoking services can help you build a plan.

Who It Is For

This liquid is aimed at adult vapers who already have, or are willing to buy, a sub-ohm style device and who like the taste of cola or other soft-drink flavours. It rewards people who enjoy a sweet but not heavy flavour, who like making their own nicotine strength, and who want to buy in bulk instead of buying small bottles repeatedly.

It is a good fit if you:

• Use a sub-ohm tank or mesh coil kit and want a liquid designed for that style of vaping
• Vape often enough that a 100ml bottle will be used within a reasonable time
• Like drink flavours and want a cola that tastes like cola instead of a vague sweet blend
• Are comfortable adding nicotine shots or happy to vape at 0mg
• Want to move away from disposables, particularly now that single-use disposables can no longer be sold in Great Britain

It is probably not the right choice if you:

• Are a non-smoker or under 18: vaping is intended only for adults who currently smoke or vape
• Use a small, low-power pod kit: 70% VG liquid is usually too thick for most small pod coils
• Need higher nicotine than 3mg: a shortfill does not suit strong nicotine requirements
• Dislike sweet flavours: cola is a sweet profile, even if the citrus keeps it fresh
• Vape only occasionally: a 100ml bottle can stay open for a long time, and the liquid is best used within a reasonable window after opening

There are people in between. Someone who currently uses a disposable and is thinking about switching can do so with a modest sub-ohm starter kit and a bottle of this liquid, but should expect a short learning curve. Setting up a tank, priming a coil, and mixing shots all take a bit more effort than picking up a disposable. For many people the trade-off is worth it, because the cost per millilitre is lower, the choice of flavours is wider, and there is less hardware thrown away.

If you are new to vaping and do not currently smoke, the sensible advice is not to start. Vaping is a tool for adult smokers who want to switch away from tobacco, and is not recommended for people who have never smoked. For those adult smokers, a flavour like cola can help make the change stick because it tastes nothing like tobacco.

How to Use and Mix

Using a shortfill for the first time is straightforward once you have done it once. The steps below cover mixing in nicotine shots and filling a tank. If you are vaping at 0mg, skip the mixing steps and go straight to filling.

• Step 1, prepare the bottle: check the seal is intact, then open the cap by pressing down and turning, as required for child-resistant closures
• Step 2, add the nicotine shots: if you want nicotine, open the shot bottle or bottles and squeeze the contents into the shortfill bottle. One 10ml shot gives about 1.6mg per ml, and two give 3mg per ml
• Step 3, close and shake: screw the cap back on firmly and shake the bottle for about 30 seconds, until the colour and consistency look even
• Step 4, let it rest: leave the bottle upright for a few hours, or overnight if you can, so that the mix settles and any bubbles clear
• Step 5, fill the tank: remove the tank top or open the fill port, tilt the tank, and squeeze liquid in slowly down the inside wall. Leave a small air gap at the top and avoid covering the central airflow tube
• Step 6, wait before vaping: allow five to ten minutes for new liquid to soak into the coil

A few extra tips make the experience smoother. Shake the bottle gently each time before refilling, because the VG and PG can separate slightly in storage. Wipe the nozzle after each fill. Keep the liquid away from heat and direct sunlight, since both can darken the liquid and dull the flavour over time. Store the bottle upright, out of reach of children and pets.

Remember that nicotine, even in diluted form, is hazardous if it touches the skin in concentration or is swallowed. Mix over a surface you can wipe clean, and wash your hands if you spill any liquid on them. If a child or pet swallows e-liquid, seek medical help immediately.

Once the liquid is in the tank, set your device to a power in the lower half of the coil's rated range and take a few slow, steady draws. If you prefer a direct-to-lung inhale, take a long, slow breath in. If you are used to a tighter draw, a mouth-to-lung inhale on a higher-resistance mesh coil can work too, though the thick liquid is less well matched to it. As a rule, bring your wattage up a little at a time until the flavour sits where you want it, then leave it alone.

For storage after opening, many vapers use a bottle within a few months for best flavour. The liquid does not turn dangerous with age, but flavour can fade and darken. Check the best-before date on the packaging, and keep the cap closed tightly between fills.

Troubleshooting

Most problems with a shortfill come down to the coil, the wattage, or the way the bottle was mixed. The following covers the common ones.

• Weak or muted flavour: usually a tired coil or one that has not been primed. Change the coil, and rinse the tank before refilling. Also check that the wattage is within the coil's recommended range
• Burnt taste: the coil is dry or fired too hard. Lower the wattage, take shorter puffs, and make sure the tank has not run low on liquid. If it persists, replace the coil
• Gurgling or spitting: too much liquid in the chamber or a coil that is flooded. Wipe the drip tip, empty any pooled liquid from the airflow tube, and open the airflow slightly
• Leaking from the tank: check the seals and O-rings, make sure the tank is assembled firmly, and avoid overfilling. Cold weather can also thicken VG, so keep the tank upright and warm
• Liquid too thick to wick: a coil with small wicking holes may struggle with 70% VG. Move to a mesh coil with larger openings or lower the wattage
• Throat hit too harsh: if you added nicotine shots, drop to one shot or leave the nicotine out. Opening the airflow and slowing your draw also reduce the harshness
• Throat hit too weak: add a nicotine shot, or try a slightly tighter airflow setting for a more concentrated vapour
• Liquid has darkened: a slight darkening is normal with age and sweeteners, but if the smell or taste has changed sharply, stop using it
• Cap will not open: child-resistant caps are meant to be firm. Press down firmly and turn, and do not force the cap with tools

If a bottle arrives damaged, has a broken seal, or seems to have leaked, keep the bottle, take photographs, and contact the retailer promptly with the batch number from the label. Do not use a bottle that looks tampered with.

If you ever feel unwell while vaping, with symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, a racing heart or persistent coughing, stop and take a break. These can be signs of taking in more nicotine than your body is used to, and they usually pass. If symptoms continue or get worse, speak to a doctor or pharmacist.

For device problems such as a battery that will not charge, a screen that will not respond, or a tank that will not fire, check the manufacturer's guidance and the warranty on the device itself. A faulty battery should be taken to a proper recycling or take-back point instead of being thrown away.

Value for Money

The main value argument for a 100ml shortfill is cost per millilitre. A 10ml pre-mixed bottle is convenient and legally capped in size, but each bottle carries packaging, labelling and compliance costs that are spread across very little liquid. A 100ml bottle spreads those costs across ten times as much, which is why shortfills tend to be noticeably cheaper per millilitre. Check the current price on the product page, then divide it by 100 to get the cost per millilitre and compare that with the 10ml bottle you currently buy.

As an illustration only, using rounded numbers: if a 10ml bottle costs about three times what you would pay for 10ml of shortfill, the shortfill saves roughly two-thirds on the liquid itself. Actual savings vary with the price at the time, so the arithmetic is worth doing yourself on the day.

Where the value holds up:

• Volume: 100ml covers roughly three to five weeks for a typical sub-ohm user going through 3ml to 5ml a day
• Fewer bottles: less plastic and less packaging for each millilitre
• Flexibility: you choose 0mg, 1.6mg or 3mg without buying a different bottle for each

Where it is less convincing:

• Extra purchases: nicotine shots are a separate cost, so the total for a 3mg bottle is the shortfill price plus two shots
• Hardware: if you do not already have a sub-ohm kit, the upfront cost of a kit and spare coils needs to be counted
• Coil wear: sweet liquids shorten coil life, so budget for coils on a regular basis
• Waste if unfinished: if you vape lightly and the bottle is open for months, the flavour may fade before you finish it

Compared with disposables, the cost difference is usually in the shortfill's favour. A disposable bundles a battery, a coil and a small amount of liquid into one item that is discarded when it runs out. A refillable setup costs more at the start but less over a month of regular use, and the main running costs are liquid and coils. With the sale of single-use disposables now banned in Great Britain, reusable kits are also the straightforward way to continue vaping in the format many people were used to.

Overall, if you are an existing sub-ohm user who likes cola, this is reasonable value for the volume. If you only vape occasionally, or you use a pod kit, a smaller bottle of a pod-friendly liquid will probably cost you less in the long run than a 100ml bottle you do not finish.

Comparison With Other Options

It helps to put this liquid beside the alternatives a UK vaper might consider, and to be fair about where each one does better. No single product suits everybody, and a lot of the choice comes down to hardware and nicotine need.

Against other shortfills from established UK brands. Brands such as IVG and Doozy Vape Co also sell 100ml shortfills in sweet and drink-style flavours, usually in the same 70/30 formula and with the same oversized bottle. At this level the differences are mostly in flavour recipe and price, not in format. Cola is a more specialised flavour than fruit mixes, so if a competitor has a cola you prefer, the choice is personal. The practical advice is to compare the price per millilitre and read recent customer reviews for the specific flavour, since two brands can taste very different even when both are labelled cola.

Against 10ml pre-mixed nicotine bottles. A 10ml bottle at a set strength is simpler: no mixing, no waiting, and it is available at strengths above 3mg. The trade-off is a higher cost per millilitre, and more packaging waste. If you need more than 3mg, the 10ml route is the one that works. If you are happy at 3mg or below, the shortfill is usually cheaper.

Against nicotine salt liquids. Salt liquids are designed for low-power pod kits, deliver nicotine more smoothly at higher strengths up to the 20mg cap, and are usually 50/50 or similar. They suit people moving from cigarettes who want a stronger hit from a small device. They are not designed for a sub-ohm tank, so they are not a like-for-like substitute for this shortfill.

Against disposables. A disposable was easier to start with, but single-use disposables can no longer be sold in Great Britain, and they were always more wasteful and more expensive per millilitre. A refillable kit with a shortfill gives more control over flavour and strength, and produces less electronic waste if you recycle old devices at a take-back point.

Against ice or menthol variants. If you want a cooler sensation in your cola, an ice version of a similar flavour will give you that, which the Original line does not set out to do. Conversely, if you find menthol harsh, the Original cola is the gentler option.

In short, Yeti Original 100ml Cola is a sensible choice for sub-ohm users who want a recognisable cola at a fair price per millilitre. It is not the answer for people who need high nicotine, who use small pod devices, or who want a cooling effect.
