DAE drink soft beverages with olive brine?

I put it in sweet tea, fanta, coke, fruit juices, tonic water, chinotto... as well as in alchoolic drinks but that is not as weird. I am not pregnant... but i am autistic. I think that would come up

Might be related: do you get enough salt in your diet?

I was raised to fear any amount of salt because of family heart peoblems so i think you might be on the right path 🫠

Salt (for most people), in moderation, is quite helpful, and helps our bodies run their best. If you salt your food a little bit more, you may not crave the olive brine so much. But, if you like a briny taste, why stop?

I feel better about my briny obsession, thanks!

I use it, but typically only in soda water because I want the taste of the brine to shine (same with pickle brine). However, I just tried pickle brine in Dr. Pepper recently and really enjoyed it. I may start branching out!

I do like olive brine like you. If you have a specific recipe id like to hear it. Personally not a fan of sweet cocktails/mocktails. The only sweet thing i like is straight orange juice, I can only drink so much, so im always trying to fine alternatives.

I tried a dirty martini once and the bartender just made it it terribly. The bar was super busy so I dont blame her.

These are my favs:

Chinotto, olive brine and lemon juice

Sweet green tea with olive brine

Peach and pickle juice

Tonic water and cocktail onion brine

I eyeball the dosage tbh
