If your social feeds are anything to go by, there’s a slight change in the pickle.
From burgers and sandwiches to cocktails and viral taste tests, spicy flavors are popping up everywhere. Now it has found its way into sparkling water, with YEW launching the UK’s first pickle-flavored sparkling water.
Available today, July 1 exclusively through Planet Organic and some websitesThe new drink combines sparkling spring water with a splash of salty dill pickle, balanced with fresh cucumber flavor and a crisp, tart aftertaste. It has zero sugar, zero sweeteners, zero calories and no artificial ingredients.
Created by renowned chef Jesse Jenkins as ADIP (Another Day in Paradise), the drink reflects the recent appetite for bold, salty flavors that is trending online and in food culture more broadly. Whether the thought of pickled sparkling water has you reaching for a can or pulling a confused face, it can’t be denied that this is one of this summer’s most unexpected launches.
The new combination joins YEW’s existing range of Pink Rhubarb, Green Apple and Yuzu Grapefruit, and creates a refreshing alternative to traditional soft drinks. YEW says the flavor profile works especially well with summer barbecues, burgers, salads and noodle dishes.
Priced at £1.99 per can, YEW Pickle is available now, and is likely to be one of the most polarizing drinks on shelves this summer.
