Categories     beverage

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lbs. yellow tomatoes, peeled and cut into large pieces
1 or 2 green jalapeno peppers, stem removed and cut into large pieces
1 lemon, cut into wedges
1 oz. fennel spice rub
6 fennel fronds
gray sea salt

Steps:

  • In a stainless steel mixing bowl, toss the tomatoes with a little gray salt followed by the jalapeno pepper. Juice the mixture through a juice extractor (such as a Juiceman) then pour the mixture into a pitcher. Refrigerate. This can be done up to six hours before serving.
  • Rub the top rims of the glasses with a lemon wedge, and dip the rims in a saucer filled with the fennel spice. The spice will cling to the rim of the glass and flavor the drink as you sip. Fill the glasses with ice. Pour the tomato juice into each glass about an inch from the top. Garnish each with a fennel frond.

Time 4h30m

Yield 1 large pitcher (6 to 8 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 17

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
3 jalapeno peppers
1 quart fresh, cold water
1/2 lemon
4 fresh basil leaves
Salt
Black pepper

Steps:

  • 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.
  • Assembling the cocktail: Rub a cut lemon around the rim of a chilled martini glass. Dip the glass, upside down, in salt or your favorite spice rub. Slice the tip of a red jalapeno pepper vertically and slip over the rim. Place 1 or 2 of the jalapeno ice cubes in each glass, pour chilled bloody maria mixture on top, and top each glass with 1 ounce of lemon vodka. Stir carefully and serve.
  • Hint: If you don't have lemon vodka, use regular vodka and squeeze a little lemon juice in each glass.
  • Remove the tops and stems of the jalapenos and slice. Place the water in a blender and add the jalapenos, seeds and all. Add the lemon to the blender, peel and all. Add the basil, a pinch of salt, and some ground black pepper, to taste. Puree in the blender until everything is incorporated. Strain through a sieve and pour into ice cube trays and freeze overnight until solid.
