Awesome dill pickle martini recipe! A twist on the dirty vodka martini, this is a dill pickle lover’s dream cocktail made with dill pickle infused vodka.
Oh hey guys. Remember that rad little infused number a few weeks back I very uniquely titled “dill pickle vodka?” Well……. IT’S BACK! Get your fancy pants on friends, cause today we are drinkin martinis! Some really bold, not your run o’ the mill, I’m talking a Blanche Devereaux bold dill pickle martini!
So, how was everyone’s Memorial Day weekend? Yes, I know. It’s Thursday. Where the heck have I been? You know, the time just got away from me! The weekend turned into Tuesday, then Wednesday came and went, and sheesh, here I am. 3 days later and only 2 days before ANOTHER weekend. Geez, life is tough. So, did you barbecue any goodies? Spend some time with the fam? Have a convo with a vet? Drink yourself into oblivion?
So, this may be a big fatty duh, but pickle luvahs……. THIS IS FOR YOU! One little detail to note……… this is one freakin strong, knock you on your ass, boozy cocktail. It tastes just like pickle juice, but man, that is ALL booze in there.
A mega boozy pickle martini is my kinda drink!
It’s herby and briny, with a peppery kick at the end. I’ll say it again though, ALL BOOZE!

Oh, Blanche. Haha. I’m much more of a cross between Dorothy and Sofia, but you can still find me sippin’ this gem. I’ve been obsessed with dill pickle flavors since I was a kid. Usually the only martini I’ll drink is a dirty martini with extra olive juice. I never thought to replace that with PICKLE BRINE. I’m making this as soon as this baby pops out. Haha.

This is a new one for me. I have never had a dill pickle drink but we LOVE dill pickles, especially Hubby! When we eat out and there are pickles included, I give him mine cuz he really goes for them. Now, this is a cocktail we’d both enjoy. Can’t wait to make this martini for us.
Gloria says
WOW I have NEVER had dill pickles in a drink. What an interesting idea. I will have to give this a try and see how it goes. Sounds like a great recipe for all the pickle lovers out there.
