How to Make Spicy Tomato Juice

  1. Chop 2 lbs ripe tomatoes, 2 stalks celery (finely chopped), 1 medium onion (finely chopped), and 1 medium beet (peeled and diced).
  2. Place the chopped tomatoes, celery, onion, and beets in a slow cooker.
  3. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the vegetables are very soft.
  4. Carefully transfer the cooked mixture to a fine-mesh sieve set over a large bowl. Press the mixture through the sieve to extract the juice, discarding the solids.
  5. Return the extracted juice to the slow cooker. Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste), and 1/4 cup of your favorite hot sauce.
  6. Cook on high for 30 minutes.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more hot sauce, salt, or pepper to achieve your preferred level of spiciness.
  8. Remove from heat and let cool completely before chilling. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
