Grillo's Pickles Dill Pickle Bloody Mary Mix, 8 fl oz Can (6 Pack)

I absolutely love pickles, so I had high hopes for this—and it exceeded my expectations. The dill pickle flavor is bold, tangy, and perfectly balanced with the tomato base. It’s not watered down at all and has that salty, briny kick that pickle lovers truly appreciate. You can really taste the pickle without it being overwhelming. This mix is great on its own, but it’s AMAZING as a Bloody Mary. It’s not overly spicy, which I actually love because you can easily customize the heat level yourself. Add vodka, ice, a pickle spear, olives, or even a splash of pickle juice and it’s chef’s kiss. I’ve even sipped it straight from the can because it’s that good. The individual cans are super convenient and perfect for brunch, parties, or keeping in the fridge for whenever a craving hits. If you’re a pickle fan and enjoy Bloody Marys, this is an absolute must-try. I will definitely be buying this again and keeping it stocked! Update I’ve bought 6 cases. 💚🥒

I don't drink a lot of tomato juice. Not that I dislike it, but I tend to prefer my veggies in non-pureed form, and to me, tomato juice is for a bloody mary or maybe a michelada. So... there have been too many times for me where most of a quart bottle of tomato juice went right down the sink. (And I'm not a huge fan of many of the commercial mixes on the market -- many are cloyingly artificial tasting to me.) This one is tasty and while not really health food when used as intended (!), I do feel more like it's actually made of veggies. I wish V8 would let up on the salt a little, though, as I like to add some celery salt, along with some Lea and Perrins and a dollop of horseradish. Not that this mix isn't already bright and savory with a bit of a bite, but I always have to add a little something extra... The big win here is no waste! I'm not diverting countless innocent tomatoes from the food chain for the sake of an occasional indulgence.

Dill pickle flavor: Very pickly, but delicious! Spicy Bloody Mary mix: very spicy, but delicious!

I do not drink alcohol and since I like V8 and pickles I tried it. I just can't decide whether to order more or not. It has the flavors advertised but as a main drink it seems a bit off. Don't get me wrong - it doesn't taste bad, but it somehow does not satisfy my taste for either flavor. I might go back to just drinking V8 and eating a big ol' pickle with it. Try it for yourself - if you buy it for it's intended use it may be just what you like.

I can't attest to how it does as a mixer for a bloody Mary, but this stuff is really good. Tomato-y, pickle-y, moderately spicy. It's good as a stand alone in my opinion, but I see others saying they couldn't even drink it, so I guess everyone's taste buds are different. And to the people who said they're going to have to pour them down the drain, feel free to send them my way 😆

This is spicy without being overwhelming. It is a great breakfast drink, low in calories and sugar content. The portion size is just right. Even my son likes this and he is not fond of tomatoes.

I really like a good Bloody Mary, and I also love pickles more than pretty much anything. We’re talking like, multiple-jars-per-week pickle love. That being said, I got super excited at the prospect of a good pickl-y Bloody Mary. So sad. I don’t really know how to describe the flavor other than to say it’s flat. Not a great pickle taste, and certainly not what I’d expect from something called a Bloody Mary mix. Taste, of course, is subjective, so try for yourself. Maybe just don’t get overzealous like I did and order a 24-pack on your first go round.

I bought the V8 Grillo's Pickles Dill Pickle Bloody Mary Mix specifically to drink by itself, not as a mixer, because I love both V8 and the bold, briny flavor of Grillo's pickles. The flavor combination is really striking; it perfectly blends the rich, savory taste of V8 tomato juice with that authentic kick of dill pickle, and the added dillweed and dehydrated garlic really deliver a complex, pickle-y punch. I like that it is a 100% juice drink, offering two servings of vegetables and an excellent source of Vitamin C, plus it’s gluten-free with no high fructose corn syrup. However, drinking it straight without the added spirit means the savory and salty elements are very pronounced, and I found the overall saltiness to be a little too high for just a beverage, leaving me needing a lot of water afterward. While the taste is definitely bold and satisfying, I think I will cut it with a little plain V8 next time just to temper that aggressive salt profile.
