The Koolickle. Have you heard of it? Have you managed to taste one of them, stumble across one, have one served to you across the dinner table by Aunt Sheila? Well, if you haven’t been so lucky, we’re here to introduce you to this Tennessee delicacy. It’s the sweet and the salty, the good and the great all rolled up into one. Take a look!
This is all you need for the most decadently mouth twisting dessert you've ever had. Better than sour patch kids, dare we say?
Here's what you do: drain the pickle brine into a clean jar. Add packet of cherry Kool-Aid and a cup of sugar. Stir until dissolved. Add pickles. Let soak for a week (if you can wait that long!)

If you cut the pickles length-wise, you're looking at a solid distribution of flavor AND color.
