Delicious! Yummy, I cut up thin slices of a kosher pickle for garnish. I’m not a gun drinker so I used Tito’s vodka
I personally prefer sweet ghirkins, or if not available at the time small kosher dills.
AWESOME! I hate olives and dirty martinis. If you like pickles, this is amazing!!!
I love Gin, dirty martinis and pickles-this was the best of both worlds. Leave it to Guy to come up with anohter great one!
I LOVE this cocktail! I’m not a big martini drinker but I am a huge pickle lover. I would never have imagined that the two could become one. It is absolutely fantastic!
I love (super) dirty martinis, but this is another whole beast altogether!
I used Trader Joe’s cornichons for the juice and the garnish. I love it!
its basically a dirty martini with pickle juice instead of olive juice. If you don’t like a dirty martini, you wont like this drink! I happen to love them. Drink up!
I love Guy and I love these ingredients but, WHEW! This was a strong drink. I poured it out. I’ll still rate this a 3 because it might just be me having a hard time with a real martini. I’ll keep trying his other recipes though! You could easily adapt this to have as much vodka as you prefer in case you want less (or more!)
