Dinner Lady Drinks 50ml Shortfill Means Tea
The range is called Drinks, so most people expect cola or lemonade. It is not that. Every bottle in this line is an iced tea, and there are only three of them.
50ml of liquid in a 60ml bottle, 0mg nicotine, 70% VG, £4.50 a bottle, three iced tea flavours.
That is the whole product on one line. The 0mg part matters most for a shop, because it means the bottle is not ready to sell to a vaper as it stands. Something has to go in the gap, and we come to that further down.
Three flavours is a small range. If you want a long flavour list in the same bottle size, V Blood Shortfill Bottles runs far wider. Three can still be the right number, and the bulk section at the bottom explains why.
Lemon, Mango, Peach Mint
Our listing gives you the names and nothing else. Here is what each one actually does, so your staff can answer across the counter.
Lemon Iced Tea. Sharp rather than sweet. The lemon is the juicy kind, not the boiled sweet kind. Good for someone who wants a break from thick flavours.
Mango Iced Tea. The mango sits on the green, fresh side instead of the syrupy side. The tea underneath is light. This is the easiest of the three to sell to someone new to the range.
Peach Mint Iced Tea. Soft peach with a firm peppermint over the top. The mint is stronger than people expect, so say so before they buy.
All three carry a light chill. None of them is a dessert, and none is a candy. That is the point of the range and it is why it sells to a customer the sweet shelves keep missing. If someone wants that chill turned right up, Dr Frost Iced Shortfill is the harder version of the same idea.
Room For One Shot
The bottle holds 60ml and only 50ml of liquid goes in it. The missing 10ml is deliberate. Our page never explains it, and that gap is the single most common question a trade customer gets asked.
50ml at 0mg, plus one 10ml shot at 18mg, gives 60ml at 3mg.
That is simple arithmetic, not a rule of thumb. 18mg across 10ml is 180mg of nicotine, and 180mg spread through 60ml comes out at 3mg a millilitre. One shot, one bottle, done. If the shot is 20mg instead of 18mg the finished bottle lands a little over 3mg, closer to 3.3mg, which matters if your customer is fussy about strength.
One more thing to say at the till. At 70% VG this is a thick liquid, and a sub-ohm coil with a bigger tank suits it. Put it in a small pod and it will not wick fast enough. Sell it to the mod customer, not the pod customer.
Three Bottles, Dinner Lady Drinks 50ml E-Liquid Wholesale
At £4.50 a bottle this is one of the cheapest lines to try on a shelf. Three bottles covers the entire range. There is no fourth flavour to hunt down and no edition to keep track of.
That is unusual and it is worth using. Most shortfill brands ask you to pick ten names out of forty and guess. Dinner Lady Drinks 50ml E-Liquid wholesale asks you to pick nothing. Here you can stock the whole thing, see which tea moves, and still have spent under fifteen pounds finding out.
It suits a shop that already sells mod kits and bigger tanks. It does not suit a counter built on pod bars, because the customer base is different. For everything else on this part of the shelf, Wholesale E-Liquids is the place to start.
Eleven Pounds Of Duty
This is the part most shortfill buyers have wrong, and it is worth reading twice.
From 1 October 2026, every 10ml of vaping liquid carries £2.20 of duty. The charge follows the volume of liquid, not the strength inside it. So a 0mg shortfill pays the same figure a 20mg salt pays at the same size.
The bottle: £11.00 of duty on 50ml
The shot: £2.20 of duty on 10ml
The finished 60ml: £13.20 of duty in total
Read those against a £4.50 bottle. The duty on the liquid comes to more than twice the price of the bottle. Nothing about the product changes, but the sum your customer pays does, and a shop that has not run this arithmetic will be surprised by its own shelf price. There is a window on it too. Stock brought into the country before the duty starts can be sold through until 31 March 2027, so bottles on your shelf now are not all priced the same way as bottles ordered later. There is a fuller walk through October Vape Tax Guide.
Nine Bottles, Dinner Lady Drinks 50ml Shortfill Bulk
Three of each flavour is nine bottles. That is the size of first order we would suggest, and it is about forty pounds of stock.
Nine is enough to tell you something. One of each tells you nothing, because a single bottle sells to whoever happens to walk in. Three of each lets you see which tea comes back for a second bottle, and that is the only signal worth having.
Order the shots at the same time. A Dinner Lady Drinks 50ml Shortfill bulk order without shots is nine bottles nobody can vape, and the customer who has to go elsewhere for the shot often buys the liquid there too. Nine bottles, nine shots, one delivery.
If the teas move and you want a bigger bottle on the same shelf, 100ml Shortfill Bottles is the next shelf up.
FAQs
What is in a Dinner Lady Drinks 50ml Shortfill?
50ml of 0mg liquid in a 60ml bottle, at 70% VG, in one of three iced tea flavours.
How many flavours does the Dinner Lady Drinks range have?
Three, and all three are iced tea. Lemon, mango, and peach mint.
Is there any nicotine in the bottle?
None. It is 0mg as supplied, which is why space is left in the bottle.
Why is the bottle bigger than the liquid?
To leave 10ml of space for a nicotine shot.
How many shots does one 50ml shortfill take?
One 10ml shot at 18mg, which gives 60ml at 3mg.
Can I put it in a small pod?
It is 70% VG, so it wants a sub-ohm coil. A small pod coil will struggle with it.

£4.50, and three bottles covers every flavour in the range.

Yes. It goes on the volume of liquid, not the strength, so 50ml carries £11.00.

£13.20 once the 10ml shot is counted alongside the 50ml bottle.
Is the range named Drinks because of cola or lemonade?
No. Despite the name, all three bottles are iced tea.
