Let’s get started!
First, what makes LiveBrine different?
Our probiotic pickle juice is something special, more than just a pickle in liquid form. It's the result of our lactic acid fermentation process here at Olive My Pickle.
The threecore health benefits of fermented vegetables and their brine include:
LIVE CULTURES LiveBrine is the only fermented pickle juice on the market, bursting with 14 billion colony forming units of lactobacillus bacteria per 1.5-ounce serving. That's a shot glass size serving. Live, raw, unpasteurized foods are known to help create a diverse microbiome, aid digestion and boost the gut's immune system.
ELECTROLYTES LiveBrine has four times more electrolytes than coconut water and provides your body with essential minerals like potassium and sodium to aid in muscle recovery. These electrolytes will help rehydrate you faster and keep muscle cramping at bay. Many customers drink a shot before bed and tell us it has resolved problems with night cramps.
LIVE ENZYMES LiveBrine also contains active live enzymes that support digestion by decreasing the amount of energy the body must spend on the digestive process. That means when LiveBrine is part of your daily routine, it will create and sustain heightened energy levels.
Vibrant Colors from Superfood Powders
You've heard the phrase, Eat the Rainbow. With LiveBrine, you can drink it!
Our brines are flavored with the highest quality superfood powders from across the world. Did you know that plant based superfoods are at their most concentrated and potent levels when they are powdered?
We've selected our powders from the highest quality providers, avoiding all preservatives and caking agents. Many of our powders are certified organic, the ones that are not (like Chlorella, a green algae with powerful detoxing benefits) are grown in a controlled environment with no exposure to pesticides, so organic certification is not necessary.
One of the most striking things about LiveBrine is the color palette. Many people ask us whether we use food dyes, especially for the more vivid colors like Blue Spirulina and the Dragon Fruit flavors.
We do not. These brightcolors are achieved 100% naturally, from the natural pigment in the concentrated superfood powders.

Are you up for an exciting flavor adventure?
LiveBrine pickle juice is ready to take you there! Here's the breakdown of each of our 8 flavors.
Kosher Dill LiveBrine Pickle Juice
THE CLASSIC PICKLE JUICE OPTION
At Olive My Pickle, our Classic Kosher Dill LiveBrine, is the pickle juice that started it all. This is the #1 best seller and the first flavor people try. This is the base and foundation, the common denominator for every other flavor of LiveBrine.
Because we use sea salt, and not vinegar in our fermentation process, our pickles and brine are much less acidic than a traditional vinegar pickle. A sea salt ferment will create lactic acid, which is smoother than the acetic acid found in a vinegar pickle. But don't let its smoothness fool you into thinking it does not deliver on flavor.
It has plenty, resulting from the fermentation process which produces delicious notes of umami underneath the salt, dill and spices.
Turmeric & Black Cracked Pepper
THE SPICED (BUT NOT SPICY HOT) OPTION
is a pickle juice shot that packs a flavor punch!
Its vibrant yellow color and taste of turmeric gives this brine an earthy, warm flavor profile. Combined with the very mild kick of black pepper, your tastebuds will be treated to an unforgettable experience.

Dragon Fruit & Strawberry LiveBrine
