That’s right — the Dallas-based chain is partnering with Boston-born Grillo’s Pickles to bring patrons a beverage that combines the piquant pickle flavor with several elements.
According to a “Today” show review from food reporter Joseph Lamour, those elements include bananas, kale, an apple juice blend, a kiwi juice blend, electrolytes, and coconut water for an “enhanced hydration” concoction he deemed as “strange but not bad!”
“We love to do unhinged collabs at Grillo’s,” the company’s chief commercial officer Mark Luker said in a news release. “When we partnered with Smoothie King for a hydration smoothie, we knew this was a great opportunity to do both. Those who are willing to try will be pleasantly surprised (and hydrated).”
It comes in three sizes — the 20-ounce goes for $5.99, the 32-ounce will set you back $8.49, and the 44-ounce costs $10.99 a pop. The pickle-forward product is available for a limited time, so if you identify as a dill devotee and want to dip into that briny delicacy, sooner beats later.
