Ingredients

2 pounds yellow tomatoes, chopped

1 cup chilled vodka

4 jarred peperoncini, plus 1/4 cup reserved pickling liquid

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Ice cubes

Preparation

Puree tomatoes in a food processor until smooth. Strain in a cheesecloth-lined fine sieve set over a bowl, then press on solids to extract juice. (You’ll need at least 2 cups.) Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.

Stir together tomato juice, vodka, pickling liquid, and lemon juice. Divide among 4 ice-filled glasses, and garnish each with a peperoncino.
