If you reach for menthol or ice flavors, you already know what you're after: a cold snap on the exhale, whether it's a straight mint or a fruit blend with a chill running through it. Disposables handle that cooling effect differently depending on the brand, the coil, and how heavy-handed the flavor team gets with the ice additive, so two "watermelon ice" pods from two different lines rarely taste the same. We pulled together a spread of iced and menthol options from across our disposables lineup — different brands, different puff counts, different takes on "cold" — as a starting list to work from, not a single best-of-the-year pick.
Menthol versus ice: two different kinds of cold
Before you scroll the list, it helps to know what you're comparing. A straight menthol or mint flavor is built around that ingredient on its own — spearmint, peppermint, or a "mint" blend meant to read close to gum or a cough drop. An "ice" flavor is usually a fruit, candy, or beverage flavor with a cooling agent layered on top, so the fruit stays the lead note and the ice shows up as a finish. Some of the picks below lean hard into one or the other, and a few — like anything labeled "iced mint" — sit in between. If you want the broader flavor picture beyond just cold profiles, our most popular disposable vape flavors roundup covers more ground.
Mega-format picks for all-day cooling
These are the higher-puff-count devices, built for people who don't want to think about their vape for a while.
- [Miami Mint](/products/horizontech-100k-puff-40ml-disposable/miami-mint) from HorizonTech's 100K disposable is about as close to a classic breath-mint profile as this list gets — cool and clean with almost no fruit underneath it.
- [Cherry Cola ICE](/products/pod-monster-x-smok-80k-refillable-disposable/cherry-cola-ice) on the Pod Monster x SMOK 80K refillable disposable is a soda flavor first, with the ice riding underneath the cola-cherry syrup rather than out front.
- [Winter Mint](/products/lost-mary-nera-70k-disposable-pods-2-pack-of-pods/winter-mint), in the Lost Mary NERA 70K pod line, reads more like a wintergreen candy than a menthol cigarette substitute — sweeter and rounder than straight mint.
- [Sky Blue Ice](/products/geek-bar-mate-60k-disposable-kit/sky-blue-ice) on the Geek Bar Mate 60K is a blue-raspberry-leaning flavor with a noticeably sharp ice finish, more bracing than most of the blue-fruit-ice options on the market.
50K picks that go somewhere different
The 50,000-puff tier is crowded, so these four stood out for doing something other than the usual blue raspberry or watermelon ice.
- [Extreme Mint ICED](/products/flavor-beast-xbm50-50k-disposable/extreme-mint-iced) on the Flavor Beast XBM50 is built to be the strongest mint on this list — less a background note, more the whole flavor.
- [Code Red (Cherry Berry Citrus Ice)](/products/raz-rx-50k-disposable/code-red-cherry-berry-citrus-ice), exclusive to the RAZ RX 50K, stacks cherry, berry, and citrus before the ice hits, so it reads more like a mixed-fruit punch than a single-note flavor.
- [Ice Mintz](/products/lost-angel-50k-disposable-pod-replacement/ice-mintz) on the Lost Angel 50K pod replacement leans into a candy-mint direction — think mint gum rather than menthol.
- [Polar Ice](/products/sikary-cloud-zero-50k-puff-vaporless-disposable/polar-ice), on Sikary's "vaporless" Cloud Zero 50K, keeps the cooling front and center with less visible cloud output than a standard disposable.
Everyday sizes that still bring the chill
Not everyone wants a 50,000-puff commitment. These sit in the middle of the range.
- [ICY Mint](/products/foger-switch-pro-30k-disposable-vape-kit/icy-mint) on the Foger Switch Pro 30K is a straightforward, no-fruit mint — a good baseline if you're comparing menthol intensity across brands.
- [Melon Lush Ice](/products/air-factory-20k-puff-disposable/melon-lush-ice) on the Air Factory 20K pairs honeydew and cucumber-adjacent melon with a moderate ice level, milder than the watermelon-ice flavors most brands default to.
Compact and specialty formats
- [Lush Ice](/products/uno-mas-disposable-5-1-200-puffs/lush-ice), on the UNO Mas 5% 1,200-puff disposable, is the classic watermelon-honeydew-ice combination in the smallest format on this list — worth keeping around if you want a mint or ice option that isn't a multi-thousand-puff device.
- [Arctic Mint](/products/helo-plus-caffeinated-zero-nicotine-vape-800-puff-0-plus-caffeine/arctic-mint) on the Melo Labs Helo Plus is a zero-nicotine, caffeinated device — a genuinely different category from the rest of this list, and worth a mention if you're looking for a mint flavor without the nicotine angle at all.
How these picks compare
A note on rechargeable models
A handful of the picks above — the Lost Mary NERA pods and the Flavor Beast XBM50 among them — are rechargeable, which just means the battery gets topped up over the device's life instead of being sealed with a fixed charge. It doesn't change the flavor itself, but it's worth knowing before you buy if battery life matters more to you than puff count on the box. If that's your main filter, our rechargeable disposables roundup goes deeper on that specific question. And if you're shopping from Texas, most of the devices on this list carry the compliance flag we track for the state; our Texas-compliant disposables guide explains what that flag means in more detail.
Where to look next
If you're not locked into disposables specifically, our e-liquid and nic pouch categories both carry their own menthol and ice options worth a look.
Frequently asked questions
What's the actual difference between a "menthol" flavor and an "ice" flavor on a disposable? Menthol and mint flavors are built around that ingredient as the main note — closer to a mint candy or gum. Ice flavors start from a fruit, candy, or beverage base and add a cooling agent on top, so the fruit or candy note usually stays in front and the cooling effect shows up more on the exhale. Flavors labeled with both words, like "iced mint," usually split the difference.
Does a higher puff count mean a stronger or different flavor? Not necessarily. Puff rating reflects how much e-liquid and battery capacity a device is built with, not how concentrated the flavor is. A 1,200-puff disposable and a 100,000-puff disposable can both carry a "lush ice" flavor that tastes similar; the puff count is about how long the device lasts, not how it tastes on any single draw.
Are rechargeable disposables any different to use than sealed ones? The flavor and coil work the same way either type. The difference is just the battery: a rechargeable model lets you plug it in and keep using the same device until the e-liquid runs out, while a sealed disposable is built to be used start to finish on one charge. Neither format changes what a menthol or ice flavor tastes like.
