Rose & Dill Pickle Tonic

Rose and Dill Pickle Tonic

A surprisingly delicious fusion of floral and tangy flavors, this Rose & Dill Pickle Tonic blends rose syrup, pickle brine, and sparkling water into a sweet-savory refreshment that’s perfect for adventurous sippers and summertime entertaining.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 oz dill pickle brine
  • 1 oz rose syrup
  • 4 oz sparkling water (such as Topo Chico)
  • Plenty of ice
  • Garnish: cucumber ribbon, fresh dill sprig, dried rose petals

Instructions

  1. Fill a highball glass completely with ice.
  2. Pour in the dill pickle brine and rose syrup.
  3. Stir gently for 10 seconds to combine and chill the mixture.
  4. Top slowly with sparkling water, pouring along the side of the glass.
  5. Garnish with a long cucumber ribbon, sprig of fresh dill, and a sprinkle of dried rose petals.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant, balanced flavors.

Notes

Start with chilled ingredients for best fizz and flavor. Adjust rose syrup to taste – less for a tangier drink, more for sweetness. Garnishes enhance aroma and presentation. Use a clear glass to show off the pink-green ombré effect.
