I got this recipe out of today's newspaper. It looked interesting! In the article, it said they have a sweet/sour taste. I'm going to prepare them tonight!!!

SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 (46 ounce) jar whole dill pickles

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups water

  • 2 (1 ounce) packets kool-aid unsweetened cherry drink mix

Directions

  1. 1
    Drain and discard the juice from the pickle jar. Remove the pickles from the jar and cut each one in half lengthwise. Return the pickles to the jar and set aside.
  2. 2
    In a large measuring cup, combine the sugar, water and Kool-Aid. Mix until the sugar has completely dissolved. Pour enough of the liquid into the pickle jar to cover the pickles. Discard any excess.

    I made this with a 32 oz jar of baby dills. Sliced'em in half and otherwise prepped as directed (heated the koolaid concoction just enough to melt the sugar). Let them sit in the fridge for a week (the warm syrup made the jar re-seal when it cooled). I didn't even get to bring home an empty jar from the BBQ I took them to, they went THAT fast!

    Yes, they are syrupy, and pickley! We inserted wooden skewers to hold the pops with and the kids loved them! We made some awhile back when this recipe was featured on Alton Brown's 'Feasting on Asphalt' show. We didn't waste the juice from the jar of pickles either. We made Puckerin' Pickle Pops for the kids also. Thanks for posting!

    Haha I love Kool Aid Pickles! I use a little less sugar and kool Aid though. I will also use any variety of the red mix that (cherry, strawberry, punch) that appeals to me at the moment.
