do you drink pickle juice?

I believe I have before, but no I don't drink it regularly. I wouldn't drink the whole thing in one sitting. I've heard vinegar can be good for you, but I believe it's more Apple Cider Vinegar that's the best for people.

hi macdingolinger I also love to drink that stuff. LOL. My husband shakes his head in disbelief when he sees it, how can anyone drink that pickle juice with all the vinegar and spices in it but I enjoy it a lot. When we make pasta salad and the pickle juice is needed for this I really have to restrain myself knowing I cant have it then as it has to go into the salad. LOL

We used to have those contests when we were kids, but I'm pretty sure my stomach would rebel now! I still sip a little now and then, though. Vinegar is very good for you unless you have kidney problems, then you should stay away from it. It's high in potassium, so it's good for most people who have high blood pressure.

Yes! I love the taste of the spicy Kosher dill vinegar, & even chew the seeds & spices! I sometimes drink it when I'm just thirsty, & I have a jar of it chilling in the fridge at all times, because a sip or 2 will also obliterate even severe hiccups! I learned that from a Pueblo Colorado government pamphlet, of all places, along with a real quick & painless method of stopping smoking, & a way to get rid of aphids. Its out of print, darn it!

you mean the syrup?...uummhh!! in my opinion is not good because of high calorie, taste good though, but i like it to add in my dishes to add sweetness..

I dislike pickles, but I'm ok with "pickle juice" as long as it's with something. This is a really interesting thing because I don't think I've ever heard of anyone "downing" the whole jar. I like vinegar and I use it all the time for my Asian dishes. It's good for you!

Pickle juice is vinegar, first of all, but brine, or salt water, as well. I do not know if it is good for you all the time, but I do know that I was once really sick,(diarrhea and vomiting and passing out) having accidentally poisoned my self with bug poison, and I did not start to get better until one night I was using up some pickles and decided to drink some pickle juice. It really made me feel better. I believe there are several minerals in it and it essentially balanced my system that was so out of kilter, kind of like drinking Gatorade. White vinegar is good, cider vinegar is supposed to be better.Natural vinegar, with sediment also known as Mother (not mother load) is, I believe, undergoing some fermentation. I think pickle juice would only be bad for you if it replaced something healthier, like water, or if you had salt sensitive high blood pressure.

Oh my gosh wow that sounds so gross. I cannot imagine sitting and just drinking the juice that is left in the jar after the pickles are gone. You can use the juice to add to things like macaroni salad or potato salad or deviled eggs but as far as drinking it no way thats so gross. I have never heard of anyone doing this but if you like it thats great at least your not just dumping it down the drain as I do.

I don't know what that is but it doesn't sound very nice!. I don't like vinegar anyway except on chips and I haven't had those in quite a while! I'm sure that the taste would be very bitter though and I don't think I could stomach that! I love drinking other kinds of juice like orange, apple, mango and drinks like that! I'm not saying it's wrong to try something new, I've not had the courage. If you like it though and it's good for you then I don't see any problems or difficulties with it. Andrew

It is said vinegar is good for your health, and my former Chinese flatmate used to cook a special 'food medicine' containing sweet vinegar and boiled eggs. (Don't ask me how it tastes like. I dared not to try after seeing its colour.) We often save pickle juice for cooking, especially for casserole dishes. It adds some sharp tint to long-cooked vegetables. And because pickle juice tends to taste slightly sweet, it goes well with meat. However, I will never down pickle juice directly into my throat. Its sour and acid taste is just too strong for me.

I drink those juice too, Some benefits of these juice are controlling of diabetes, lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Vinegar also makes an adequate surface disinfectant for hard surfaces such as counter tops, tiles and enameled bathroom surfaces and its ability to clean and sterilize cookery.

mmmm pickle juice I so love the juice, probably more than the pickle. As I am on to slurp on the juice first before I enjoy the pickle . If I am not mistaken I understood that vinegar is a great anti-oxidant.

As far as I know vinegar is good for you. I don't know about pickle juice, but at least it shouldn't hurt you. I have also read that pickle juice is credited with preventing muscle cramps.

Hi, No, I do not drink pickle juice, in fact I have never even heard of even drinking the pickle juice...

Um.... No. Do a lot of people do this? Yuck! Maybe you can start a new fad and sell it in soda bottles. Do pickles give you extra energy? I know pickles are a healthy snack. You could sell it as a health drink. People will buy anything.
