In today’s Episode…
We’re absolutely buried in tomatoes, so we figured we’d try using some of them up in cocktails!
Common Cocktails:
There are really two common cocktails that use Tomato in them, and both of them use tomato juice:
The Bloody Mary
Ingredients:
- Celery salt
- 1 Lemon wedge
- 1 Lime wedge
- 2 oz Vodka
- 4 oz Tomato juice
- 1 dash Celery Bitters
- 2 dashes Tabasco Sauce
- 2 tsp Prepared horseradish
- 2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- 1 pinch Celery salt
- 1 pinch Ground black pepper
- 1 pinch Smoked paprika
Preparation:
Rim a highball glass with celery salt until fully coated. Fill with ice and set aside. Squeeze the lemon and lime wedges into a shaker and drop them in. Add the remaining ingredients and fill with ice. Shake gently and strain into the prepared glass. Garnish with a celery stalk and a lime wedge.
Michelada
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1/2 tsp Chili Powder
- 12 ounces of beer
- 1 oz lime juice
- 1 oz Tomato Juice
- 1-3 dashes Hot sauce
Preparation:
Rim a highball class with a mixture of the salt and chili powder, then fill with ice. Then combine the lime juice, tomato juice and hot sauce to a cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake, then strain into the prepared glass. Top with beer.
Tomato Juice and Tomato Water: What’s the Difference?
Tomato juice is red, opaque and pulpy. Tomato water has no pulp and is yellow in color. We’ve been working on making tomato water that is crystal clear – we haven’t managed it quite yet, but we got pretty close this week with our Cryofreezing video!
