Recipe Introduction
Homemade Pickle Juice
(without pickling cucumbers)
This recipe gives the brine a sour dill pickle taste.
Why on Earth would someone want to make the juice without the pickles?
#picklebacks for one thing! And for cramp relief for another. Ever wake up in the middle of the night with a debilitating Charlie Horse? Hobble to the kitchen and take a shot of this medicine!
List of Ingredients
2 C purified / filtered water
1 C white vinegar (5% acetic acid)
2 T kosher salt
1 T pickling spice
Optional:
Dash of sugar
Fresh dill sprigs (4) OR 1/2 tsp dried dill weed
Clove of garlic (partially crushed)Recipe
Mix all ingredients in a sauce pan, on low to medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve all salt and sugar. Pickling spice can be added in the pan or in the container. It can be added loose or within a tea ball (for those who like clear pickle juice). Let cool, pour into container and store in the refrigerator. Gently shake 1 time per day to redistribute herbs and spices if pickling spices are used.
I used pickling spices in a tea bag and tossed it in the jar.
