If you have an obsession with everything pickle like I do, then you'll want to try these Pickle Juice Shots. 

These shots are super simple with just two ingredients, pickle juice and vodka. They're tart, but super refreshing, especially on a hot summer day. You can add optional garnishes to jazz up your shots and make them different every time.

You can use juice from sweet, sour or spicy pickles, or even juice from other pickled vegetables.

It's a nice change from typical shots you see at parties and it's a great topic of conversation between the pickle lovers and non-pickle lovers.

Recipe tips:

  • Pickle juice is available by the jug, or you can use the juice from your jar of pickles. I recently saw it at Sam's Club, or Amazon.
  • Depending on the brand, type, and flavor of pickles, the juice and your shot will taste differently. Mix it up and go spicy, a little sweet, more sour, etc.
  • The Tajin seasoning is a perfect pair with pickles and helps tame the pickle juice in the shot. If you're using the Tajin seasoning, make sure to line the glass rims before pouring.
  • Make sure not to salt the rim, it’s way too salty when combined with the pickle juice.
