Premium pickle brand Grillo's is changing its name from Grillo’s Pickles to Grillo’s Fresh, which better accommodates its new venture into the creation of cold-pressed pickle vinegar drinks. The cold-pressed pickle beverages are positioned as health beverages, especially pre- and post-workout alternatives to sports drinks. Like coconut water, the pickle drinks are high in electrolytes, and they even have the potential to be marketed as hangover recovery solutions based on this fact as well.
The beverages are being introduced in pickle and lemon flavors, both of which includes fresh cucumber to enhance the flavor. As unusual as these cold-pressed pickle vinegar drinks may seem, consumers have already been introduced to a variety of functional vinegar tonics that are packed with wellness benefits.
