Ingredients

Blondie Mary

From Bistro Don Giovanni in Napa.

12 medium golden tomatoes

3 tablespoons white Worcestershire sauce

3 tablespoons green Tabasco sauce

4 teaspoons fine sea salt

2 tablespoons lime juice

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 serrano or jalapeno chile, seeded

1 1/2 tablespoons freshly chopped dill (optional)

12 ounces vodka, or to taste

Lemon cucumber, sliced

6-8 pickled wax beans

Directions

For the base: Blanch tomatoes in boiling water and then remove the skins. Puree the tomatoes in a blender. (This should yield about 7-8 cups. If not, add more blanched, skinless tomatoes.) Add Worcestershire, Tabasco, salt, lime and lemon juices, chile and dill (if using), and puree until smooth. Strain the mixture into a bowl and set aside.

For the drink: Mix about 8-10 ounces of the tomato puree base with 1 1/2 ounces of vodka. Serve straight up in a tall glass garnished with a pickled yellow wax bean and a slice of lemon cucumber on the side.

Yields 6-8 drinks

I am so making this for our next family brunch. I can't abide sweet drinks and this will be a nice change of pace. See if I can get my sis to try it instead of mimosas with Andre's. Now that is a headache all by itself. LOL She claims I make everything to hot, but she might just try this.

I'd use the jalapeno instead of the serrano to keep the heat down.
