Okay, so I was scrolling through TikTok the other day, and I kept seeing these videos about the Chamoy pickle. I got curious ’cause, you know, it looked kinda weird but also kinda good? So, I decided I had to try making it myself.
First, I gathered all the stuff I needed. I already had some dill pickles in the fridge, so that was a start. Then, I went to the store and picked up some chamoy sauce – it’s like this sweet, sour, and spicy Mexican condiment. I also grabbed some chili powder ’cause I wanted an extra kick. And since I saw some people adding fruit roll-ups, I got a box of those too.

Getting Started
- Dill pickles (the big kind)
- Chamoy sauce
- Chili powder
- Fruit roll-ups (optional, but why not?)
- Some candy like Gushers or sour patch kids (optional too)
Now, the fun part – actually making this thing. I took a big ol’ dill pickle and sliced it in half. Then, I scooped out the insides with a spoon, making a little pickle boat. This is where the chamoy comes in.
I poured a generous amount of that chamoy sauce into the hollowed-out pickle. Then, I sprinkled some chili powder on top for that extra heat. If you’re using fruit roll-ups, you can wrap them around the pickle now. Some people also like to stuff the pickle with other candies like gushers or sour patch kids – go wild if that is your thing!
Finally, it was time to taste my creation. I took a bite, and… it was interesting. Definitely a mix of flavors – the sourness of the pickle, the sweet and spicy chamoy, and then the heat from the chili powder. It’s not something I’d eat every day, but it was a fun experiment.
So, there you have it – my Chamoy pickle adventure. It was messy, a little weird, but definitely a memorable experience. If you’re feeling adventurous, give it a try. You might like it, you might not, but you’ll definitely have something to talk about!
