Whiskey Pickle Back Cocktail

One of my favorite shots to take is a pickleback. A shot of whiskey followed by pickle juice is probably one of the best shots to order at the bar. But what if you are feeling a little bit more in the mood for a cocktail recipe? Have no fear, this Whiskey sour pickle cocktail is just what you are looking for. It combines all the flavor of your favorite chaser combo in a sophisticated cocktail glass. Plus it lets you drink the dill pickle brine all night long.

How to Make a Whiskey Pickle Sour Cocktail

In a cocktail shaker, add lime juice (you can always use lemon juice) dill pickle juice, and whiskey. If you are wanting something a little sweeter you can add some simple syrup.

Fill the shaker with ice and shake for about 30 seconds. Pour the drink into martini glasses and garnish with a cornichon or lemon slice.

Irish whiskey, bread and butter pickle juice, and squeezed lime juice is the star of this whiskey cocktail. Once stirred in a highball glass with ice, the cocktail is garnished with lime, pickles, and a sprinkling of Old Bay Seasoning.

According to blogger Casey Barber, this cocktail was once served at a New York City bar. It has since closed, so the only way you can enjoy the drink is if you make it yourself at home.
