Bubbies Kosher Dill Pickle Popsicles Perk Up Summer

What’s a summer snack that will impress guests at a party, wow on social media, taste great and hydrate during the dog days of summer? Pickle popsicles.

Bubbies Fine Foods – the fermented and pickle queen – has developed a summer sun-sational two-ingredient popsicle recipe. The recipe can be zhuzhed up for adults with your favorite hot sauce, spices (we like turmeric and garlic powder,) and even spirits like tequila and vodka.

You’ll find this surprisingly tasty and a must-try for pickle lovers. Bubbies test kitchen chefs created this based on the fact that people swig cold, refreshing pickle brine juice straight from the jar – especially in summer and post-workout!

Bubbies Dill Pickle Popsicles

Ingredients:

1 cup sliced Bubbies Kosher Dill Pickles (approximately 4 medium sized pickles)
1 cup Bubbies Kosher Dill Pickle juice

Optional flavors:

1 tsp of your favorite hot sauce
Dash of black pepper
Dash of garlic powder
Dash of turmeric

Other fun additions:

Dried or fresh dill
Dried ground mustard
Honey or agave syrup, for a mild sweetness*
Spirits, such as vodka or tequila*

Instructions:

Slice the dill pickles and add them to a blender (or food processor). Add the dill pickle brine, hot sauce and spices.

Set your blender to liquefy, and blend until pickles are broken up, and the consistency of the mix is similar to a smoothie. Pour into your popsicle molds, and freeze for 6 hours or overnight. 

Pop those pops out, and enjoy!

* adding a small amount of alcohol or sugar will soften the popsicles if you find them too hard.
