Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized ripe tomatoes
- 1 large celery stalk
- 1 medium-sized carrot
- 1 small jalapeño pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup water
- 1 sprig fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and dry the tomatoes, celery, carrot, and jalapeño pepper.
Roughly chop the tomatoes, celery, and carrot into smaller chunks to make blending easier.
Carefully deseed and chop the jalapeño if you prefer a milder level of spice. Otherwise, leave the seeds intact for extra heat.
Place the chopped tomatoes, celery, carrot, and jalapeño into a blender or food processor.
Add the fresh lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, sea salt, black pepper, and water to the blender.
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher to remove any pulp, if desired. (This step is optional if you prefer a thicker juice.)
Taste the juice and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt, pepper, or hot sauce as needed.
Pour the spicy tomato juice into serving glasses and garnish with a sprig of fresh parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
