Sangrita
Beth LeeSangrita is the perfect complement to tequila! Make some to celebrate Cinco de Mayo or substitute it for a bloody mary for Sunday brunch. It's delicious without the alcohol too!
Ingredients
- 1 cup tomato juice any brand you prefer
- ½ cup fresh squeezed orange juice store-bought could work
- ¼ cup fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- ½ serrano pepper rough chopped (I left the seeds in)
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (I like Tobasco brand)
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 2-3 splashes Worcestershire sauce to taste
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt optional
Instructions
- Add first 5 ingredients to blender and liquefy for a few seconds.
- Taste to check the heat level and flavor profile.
- Then add the hot sauce, black pepper and worcestershire sauce.
- Taste again and add a dash of salt if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh citrus if you can, especially the lemon and lime juice.
- Have fun with the recipe - change up the tomato base, peppers, hot sauces and make it your own, though I think my recipe is pretty darn good!
- Taste it with some tequila to really judge how it "completes" the tequila you are drinking. After all, that is the whole point!
