1. Take a long drag on your electronic cigarette. Inhale the vapour into your throat, not into your lungs. This may take some practise but will produce the best results. You want to get as much vapour as possible. The thicker the vapour the better the rings will look and longer they will last.
2. Get your mouth in the right shape. Keep your tongue flat at the bottom of your mouth and towards the back of your throat. Make your lips into a small “O” shape and stick out your lips like you were going to say “boo”.
3. Push a small amount of vapour out your mouth using your throat. This is the part that takes some practise. It is like a mini cough, short sigh, or making a slight choking sound.
