If you are already a Spoiled To Perfection fan, then you know that we are totally obsessed with Bubbies Pickles. Bubbie Fans are everywhere and are always asking what can they do with left over pickle juice. That juice is full of yummy flavor and probiotics, so pouring it down the drain is just wrong. We’ve had people write to us and give tips, like tossing it in with a vinaigrette salad dressing, or adding it to your favorite tuna or chicken salad recipe.
As the ideas came pouring in, I thought, lets make cocktails! I came up with a few ideas of how to incorporate different types of pickle juice with cocktails, and the first one I tried was a hit! The spicy pickled margarita is not for the faint of heart. It’s spicy, savory and sweet all at once. I had a couple friends over, who are artisanal cocktail drinkers, to taste test. They loved it! So here it is; The Spicy Pickled Margarita, with recipe and video instructions below. More pickled cocktail recipes coming soon. Enjoy!
