Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (12-ounce) can cold Dr Pepper
- 1 tablespoon dill pickle brine, plus more to taste
- 3 to 4 dill pickle chips
- 1 cup ice
- 1 thin jalapeño slice, optional
- 1 lime wedge, optional
Instructions
- Fill a tall glass with the ice.
- Pour in the cold Dr Pepper slowly and allow the foam to settle.
- Add 1 tablespoon dill pickle brine and stir gently once or twice.
- Add the pickle chips. Taste and add more brine 1 teaspoon at a time if you want a stronger pickle flavor.
- Add the optional jalapeño slice or squeeze in the optional lime wedge. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Pickle brine sodium varies widely by brand, so start with 1 tablespoon and adjust gradually.
- The nutrition estimate uses regular 12-ounce Dr Pepper; a zero-sugar version has different nutrition.
- Use dill pickle brine rather than sweet bread-and-butter pickle juice for the most balanced flavor.
- Serve immediately for the strongest carbonation.
