Chef Tips

- Utilize abacaxi previamente congelado em cubos pequenos para garantir uma textura densa de smoothie sem precisar de muito gelo - Escorra os picles antes de colocar no copo do liquidificador para dosar o salmoura sem desequilibrar a bebida - Comece adicionando apenas 1 colher de chá de mel e ajuste no final de acordo com a sua preferência pessoal

Variations

- Adicione 1 pitada de pimenta caiena ou sal de aipo na borda do copo para criar uma apresentação estilo coquetel refrescante - Incorpore meia xícara de folhas de espinafre cru ou couve higienizada para transformar em um suco verde nutritivo - Acrescente uma dose de gim ou vodca de boa qualidade para transformar a bebida em um drinque de verão

Substitutions

- A água de coco gelada pode ser substituída por água mineral com gás, chá verde bem gelado ou kombucha tradicional - O abacaxi congelado pode ser substituído por maçã verde congelada com casca ou cubos de melão amarelo doce - O mel de abelhas pode ser substituído por xarope de agave, xarope de maçã ou melado de cana suave

How to Store

Consume the smoothie immediately after preparation to enjoy the creamy consistency of the ice and the volatile aromas of the dill. If any is left over, store in a sealed bottle in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours and shake well before drinking.

Can You Freeze It?

You can freeze the ready-made drink in popsicle molds for up to 30 days to get savory and refreshing popsicles. Thawing in a glass is not recommended, as there will be a separation of water and fibers.

What to Serve With

Exemplarily accompanies pub snacks such as grilled vegetable skewers, grilled coalho cheese, or crunchy cassava chips. It also works very well served as a liquid restorer after intense workouts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the drink have a salty taste like pickle brine?

No, the acidity of the pickles is balanced by the natural sweetness of the ripe frozen pineapple and the fresh lime juice.

Can I use sweet pickles instead of dill pickles?

Yes, sweet and sour pickles work very well and reduce the need to add extra honey during blending in the blender.

What is dill and can I replace it with another herb?

Dill is the herb known in Brazil as dill; if you don't find fresh, replace with fresh mint or basil leaves.

Why use coconut water in the recipe?

Coconut water brings potassium and mild mineral sweetness that balances the pickle sodium, creating a natural isotonic drink.
