Van Holten's Pickles - Real Pickle Brine Pickleback Mixer - 1 Liter

Soooo good! Tastes just like the Pickleback syrup from Dutch Bros! Mix it with lemonade for the most refreshing drink!

Bought for husband to help with muscle cramps. He eats the pickles and loves them but not enough juice in them . So I found this! It is a little more tart than the juice in the pickle pouch, but after his first couple drinks of it... He is very happy with it.

Love this! Tastes exactly like pickle juice without having to use a jar! Was great for the pickle martinis I made

flavor was not there

I was making tons of pickle backs for my friends and business, and I was constantly buying pickles and draining the juice, and throwing most of the pickles away. (Very Pricy), so I thought let see if I can just order pickle juice (brine) from a business, and I came across this item. Order and use it and customers didn't mind the taste. What a life saver!! I have found another pickle brine on amazon that I like a little more, it just take a little longer to arrive, but if you not in a rush I would try that one as well, and tell me which one you like better. (Mt. Olive) is the other one

Nothing wrong with seller but product was gross 🤢. I drink pickle juice a lot and figured this would be a good way to just get the juice without the pickle but taste nothing like pickle juice and was so gross I still have almost full bottle. If your looking for something that taste like the juice in their pickle in a pouch then avoid this. Thought maybe I just got a bad one but not willing to risk wasting more money just to toss it. Are you?

I eat Van Holten pickles in a bag all the time--mostly original (blue bag) and garlic (purple bag), with an occasional sour (orange) or hot (red) pickle mixed in--and buy them mainly for the brine. I got this 6 jar version and have opened 2 of the jars so far and they both have the same taste, which is not a taste like any of the bagged pickles. It starts out tasting like the original brine, as I would have expected, since the product description doesn't mention garlic, hot or sour, but there is an off-putting aftertaste when you drink the brine straight. I can only describe it as spicy, as in a collection of spices, not a hot spicy. That spice hangs in your throat afterwards and it is not enjoyable. I would imagine that spice would be excellent as a drink mixer (I have not tried this yet), and it works great when brining chicken or pork. In other words, when you mix the brine with something else, it is excellent; but I cannot drink this brine straight and that was the reason I purchased it.I would give this two different ratings depending on usage:1 star - drinking straight from the bottle5 stars - mixing in drinks or brining meatHowever, for the same $40 price, I can get a 5-gallon bucket of pickles full of a larger quantity of brine that I do like and have the pickles to boot! It was worth purchasing once, but I will not do so again.

So many uses for pickle juice! I get muscle cramps pretty bad and a shot of this or adding it my water, works great! If you workout a lot or work out in the heat, this also helps with heat headaches and overheating. I always have a bottle on hand!
