Premium mixers brand, Three Cents, has unveiled its latest innovation; Pickle Soda. A bold and vibrant new expression with an intense fizz to the last sip, it is now available.
The Three Cents Pickle Soda taps into the booming demand for the on-trend flavour profile, which is spanning drinks and wider food culture. A true first-of-its-kind, the soda offers a unique proposition that brings an unexpected edge to cocktails and long drinks and leans into consumer thirst for umami and savoury-led flavours, as well as pickling and preservation. As with the wider Three Cents range, the Pickle Soda is made using natural ingredients, without the use of preservatives or artificial colourings.
A bold and unmistakable flavour, the Pickle Soda transforms the vibrant essence of brine, vinegar, salt and sugar into a multidimensional soda with the signature Three Cents fizz. Its aroma is fresh – led with the scent of crisp cucumber and grounded by the earthy character of celery – whilst the flavour is aromatic, tangy and savoury, balanced by a subtly of vinegar, salt and a touch of sugar.
The Three Cents Pickle Soda is exceptionally versatile, pairing beautifully with a wide range of spirits. Its hero serve is the ‘Pickleball’ – a vodka highball with a bold twist of pickle and Tabasco – however it is equally delicious enjoyed neat for a refreshing and multisensory sip.
Founded in Athens by a group of bartenders in pursuit for the perfect cocktail mixer, Three Cents has built a reputation for never staying still, creating best-in-class premium sodas and tonics that lead global flavour trends and open up creativity for bartenders. The announcement follows its Fig Leaf Soda, which launched in 2024 and has gone on to be a popular flavour profile and secure listings in the world’s leading bars.
George Bagos, Three Cents General Manager and Cofounder, says “The Pickle Soda is a genuinely unique product that we believe will strongly resonate with premium venues and modern drinkers. Savoury and pickle-inspired flavours are one of the biggest trends in today’s drinks culture, so we’re excited to be the first to introduce a Pickle Soda to the category.
“The liquid is refreshing and incredibly moreish, delivering the signature Three Cents fizz right until the last sip. We are looking forward to seeing how bartenders experiment with it and use it to bring a new edge to cocktails and long drinks.”
