Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 3 pounds tomatoes (heirloom if possible), cored and roughly cut
- 2 to 3 jalapeno chilis, stems removed and roughly cut
- 1 bulb fennel, white part roughly cut
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 lemon, halved
- 1/2 cup favorite spice rub
- 6 to 8 whole red jalapenos
- Jalapeno Ice Cubes, recipe follows
- Lemon vodka
Instructions
- Place tomatoes, jalapenos, and fennel in a bowl. Season liberally with pepper, salt and the Worchestershire sauce. Coat with olive oil, tossing lightly. Put a few of the tomatoes in the blender and liquefy - this will make it easier to puree the rest of the solids. Add the fennel/tomato/jalapeno mixture to a blender and puree until liquefied. Store in refrigerator up to 6 hours until chilled.
- Hint: If you can find them, heirloom tomatoes can really boost the flavor of this drink. Heirloom tomatoes are typically varieties that were grown over 50 years ago, before tomatoes were bred for ease of picking and distribution. Heirlooms tend to be a little more acidic than modern commercial tomatoes, and often the fresh tomato flavor is more pronounced.
