Dropped $9 on a jar of pickle juice powder at the flea market in Tulsa and it ruined my soda game forever
Back in the day my grandma would just pour the real juice straight from the jar into a glass of Sprite and it always hit, so when I saw a dry powder version for $9 I figured it would be the same thing but easier to keep in my desk drawer. I mixed one scoop into a can of Coke last Tuesday and it turned into this salty sweet foam that tasted like a wet gym sock dipped in sugar. Tried it again with half a scoop in lemon lime and it was still weird, just less awful, and now the jar is sitting in my cabinet mocking me. Has anyone actually found a powder mix that works for this, or am I stuck hauling a real pickle jar to work forever?

Did you read that the powder stuff is mostly just citric acid and salt mixed with some kind of vinegar flavoring? I saw a post somewhere where a guy said the dry mix never works the same because the real brine has actual pickle bits and sugar in it that you can't fake. Your best bet might be to just put real juice in a small squeeze bottle and keep it in your desk, Way less weird than hauling the whole jar. Half a scoop in lemon lime sounds like it was still rough, so I would not keep messing with that jar.
