As a Marinade: Combine 1 cup pickle juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, and chopped fresh herbs. Marinate chicken or shrimp before grilling.

In Barbecue Sauce: Mix 2 tablespoons pickle juice and 1 cup sauce for a tangy hit.

In Egg, Potato, or Macaroni Salad: Mix mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons juice; fold into the salad.

In a Cocktail: For a twist on a “dirty” martini, use pickle instead of olive juice. Garnish with a spear. It’s also good in Bloody Marys.

As Pickling Juice: Fill a jar of juice with raw carrots, celery, and sliced onions. Keep it in the refrigerator for snacking.
