Categories     quick, non-alcoholic drinks

Time 10m

Yield 6 drinks

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 Green Zebra tomatoes (4 to 5 ounces each)
3 yellow tomatoes (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
6 Brandywine tomatoes (1 1/4 pounds each)
4 ounces tequila
1 1/2 ounces Grand Marnier
9 ounces orange juice
Pinch of salt
3 tablespoons goats' milk yogurt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt

Steps:

  • Cut the tops off the tomatoes. Using your fingers or a melon baller, scoop out and discard the seed packets and then dig out the juicy meat of the tomatoes. Put the tomato flesh and any collected juices in a drink shaker or pitcher. Liquefy the flesh by breaking it up with a spoon. There should be a total of 1 1/2 cups of tomato juice.
  • Add the tequila, Grand Marnier, orange juice and salt. Shake or stir vigorously.
  • Spread the yogurt, black pepper and kosher salt on 3 separate plates. One by one, dip the rims of six wine glasses, goblets or martini glasses in the yogurt, the pepper and the salt. Divide the tomatorita mixture among the six glasses and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will have a big impact on the final dish, so be sure to use the best you can find. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and heavy for their size.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, can add a lot of flavor to your recipes. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
  • Don't overcook your tomatoes: Tomatoes are delicate and can easily become mushy if overcooked. Be careful not to cook them for too long, especially if you are using them in a salad or salsa.
  • Add a little bit of sweetness: A little bit of sweetness can help to balance out the acidity of tomatoes. You can add sugar, honey, or maple syrup to your recipes, or you can use sweet vegetables, such as carrots or bell peppers.
  • Experiment with different cooking methods: There are many different ways to cook tomatoes, so don't be afraid to experiment. You can roast them, grill them, sauté them, or even fry them. Each cooking method will give you a different flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Tomatoes are a versatile and delicious ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. With their sweet and tangy flavor, tomatoes can add a pop of flavor to any meal. Whether you're using them in a salad, salsa, soup, or stew, there are endless possibilities when it comes to cooking with tomatoes. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful ingredient to add to your next meal, reach for a tomato.
