Slowly pour in the pickle juice, stirring continuously. The pickle juice adds a unique tanginess and a hint of saltiness, elevating the lemonade to a new level of refreshment.
Dilute with Cold Water:
Add the cold water to the pitcher, stirring well to combine all the ingredients. Taste the lemonade and adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more sugar or pickle juice as needed.
Chill and Serve:
Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the pickle lemonade over the ice. For an extra touch of flair, garnish each glass with a lemon slice and a pickle spear.
Enjoy!
