Ingredients

1 ½ pounds tomatoes, chopped
⅓ large onion, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped celery
½ teaspoon chopped celery
⅜ carrot, chopped
¼ beet
⅛ green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
⅓ clove garlic
2 ⅓ cups water, or as needed
1 ¼ teaspoons white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
¼ teaspoon horseradish
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
1 (1 quart) sterilized canning jar with lid and ring

Steps:

Process tomatoes, onion, 3 tablespoons and 1/2 teaspoon chopped celery, carrot, beet, green bell pepper, and garlic through a juicer.
Stir vegetable juices, water, 1 1/4 teaspoons white sugar, lemon juice, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper together in a large pot. Bring to a boil and cook until flavors blend, about 20 minutes.
Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Ladle juice into a quart jar. Stir 1 tablespoon white sugar and 1 teaspoon salt into the juice. Wipe the rim of the jar with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lid and screw on ring.
Process juice in a pressure canner at 10 pounds of pressure for 35 minutes.
Remove the jar from the pressure canner and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface until cool. Once cool, press the top of the lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Delicious tomato juice for a fraction of the cost of store-purchased. Adjust lemon, salt, and sugar to taste. Almost 7 cups of juice for about $1.00! I prefer the natural tomato paste.
