Dill Pickle Fireball Bomb


  • Author: Imili Johnson

Ingredients

Scale

To make this cocktail, you’ll need just a few simple ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz Fireball Cinnamon Whisky – This sweet and spicy whisky is the star of the drink, providing a warm, cinnamon-forward flavor.
  • 2 oz Dill Pickle Juice – Use chilled dill pickle brine for the best results. Opt for natural or homemade pickle juice for a fresher taste.
  • 4 oz Light Beer (Optional) – Adding a light beer like a lager or pilsner enhances the drink’s body and introduces a refreshing carbonation.
  • Dill Pickle Spear or Slice – A pickle garnish adds a fun, decorative touch and an extra burst of pickle flavor.

Instructions

Step 1: Chill the Ingredients

The key to a great Dill Pickle Fireball Bomb is serving it ice cold. Before you begin, place the Fireball, pickle juice, and beer (if using) in the refrigerator to chill for at least an hour. You can also chill your glasses in the freezer for an extra frosty experience.

Step 2: Prepare the Glass

If you’re using beer, pour 4 oz of light beer into a standard pint glass or beer mug. The beer will serve as the base layer of the drink.

Step 3: Assemble the Shot

In a separate shot glass, combine 1 1/2 oz of Fireball Cinnamon Whisky and 2 oz of dill pickle juice. Stir gently to blend the flavors. The mixture should be well-balanced, with the sweetness and spice of the Fireball complementing the tanginess of the pickle juice.

Step 4: Create the Bomb

Place the shot glass inside the pint glass of beer. If you’re skipping the beer, you can simply drink the shot on its own or pour it into a larger glass for sipping.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

Garnish the drink with a dill pickle spear or slice for added visual appeal and flavor. Serve immediately, and enjoy the unique combination of tangy, spicy, and sweet flavors.
