We still had quite a few tomatoes in our freezer and new green tomatoes are coming onto the plants in the garden so I decided it's time to use up some of last years bounty before this years takes over.
We've made tomato juice several times and it gets drank up in a hurry.
It's great mixed with a cold brew.
We vary the recipe according to what we have on hand & add a bit of dried salsa mix.
In a large kettle cook the tomatoes, onions,peppers,celery sticks and water until the veggies are soft and mushy.
Then put the juice back into the large kettle.
Add the salt, sugar, lemon juice and celery salt.
Boil for 10 minutes on medium heat.
Pour into jars & process.

Oh that looks so good! We love to make red eyes (that's what we call clamato and beer) - they are soooo good. I'm going to have to try this.
I have never tried making vegetable juice, but it looks so delicious, I might have to try it!

My Mother would have loved that stuff.
I've never been much of a veggie juice drinker, but I'd like to try it with a cold brew. Interesting....
