Only this sheet prints - the size above is what it is set to.
Ingredients
- 900 ml Tomato juice - A good one, and salted - this is the whole drink
- 90 ml Lemon juice
- 18 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- 12 dashes Tabasco
- 6 pinches Celery salt
- 6 pinches Black pepper - Freshly ground, and not a small pinch
- 6 sticks Celery stick (optional)
Pitcher (6 drinks) - about 990 ml of measured ingredients, before ice and dilution.
Timings and per-glass steps are written for one drink and are not scaled. A full jug takes longer to chill, so stir or shake until it is properly cold rather than by the clock, and pour over fresh ice one glass at a time.
Quick version
- Season the tomato juice in the glass, roll it between two glasses and serve it cold.
Method
- Chill the tomato juice properly before you start - this is a cold drink, not a soup.
- Season it in the glass with the lemon, Worcestershire, Tabasco, celery salt and pepper.
- Roll the drink between two glasses rather than stirring it, so it mixes without frothing.
- Add a celery stick, and taste it again before you hand it over - the seasoning is the recipe.
