How to Prepare Tropical Burst: Step-by-Step
-
Assemble Your Hookah
- Begin by cleaning your hookah thoroughly to ensure a pure flavor.
- Connect the vase, stem, tray, and hose to your hookah base, ensuring all parts are securely attached.
-
Prepare the Base
- Fill the vase with cold water until the downstem is submerged by about an inch.
- Add a few fresh mint leaves to the water for garnish and an extra burst of freshness.
-
Mix the Shisha Flavors
- In a small bowl, combine equal parts of passionfruit, guava, and mint shisha.
- Gently mix the shisha to ensure even distribution without compressing it.
-
Pack the Bowl
- Using a Samsaris Bowl, lightly sprinkle the mixed shisha into the bowl, leaving space below the rim to avoid contact with the heat management system.
- Keep the pack loose for proper airflow and even heating.
-
Heat the Coals
- Light 2–3 natural coconut coals until they are fully glowing red. This process typically takes 8–10 minutes.
-
Assemble and Heat
- Attach the bowl to the hookah stem and place the heat management system on top.
- Once the coals are ready, place them in the heat management system and allow the shisha to heat for 5 minutes before beginning your session.
-
Begin Smoking
- Take slow, gentle puffs to start the session. Adjust the coals as needed to maintain consistent heat without burning the shisha.
-
Enjoy Tropical Burst
- Relish the refreshing combination of sweet passionfruit, juicy guava, and cooling mint with every puff. Rotate the coals as needed for a smooth and flavorful experience.
