Well, I think both words pretty much mean the same - mix can be the short form of mixture. However, mixture might be used to describe a combination, a compound or variety. It's probably best to see the words in various contexts.

mix can be a verb (modified a little) such as:

i am mixing something

or a mix can be a bunch of different things put together, pretty much same as mixture which is a bunch of different things put together. you use which one you like or which is appropriate for what you are talking about.

Hello Yo (that's a rhyme, isn't? Smile ),

Thank you for your explanation, that was very helpful to me. When will you get your lawyer's licence? Maybe you can handle my cases in court should I ever be faced with such a situation.
