2¼ cups pickle juice
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
½ cup pickle chips (optional)
In a large measuring cup, whisk together pickle juice and sugar. Place a few pickle chips in each popsicle mold, then pour in pickle juice mixture. Cover and add popsicle sticks. Freeze until solid (about 4 hours). Run warm water over molds to loosen popsicles and serve immediately.
