  • Prep Time 15 minutes
  • Total Time 2 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield Serves 4

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

Directions

  1. 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.
  2. Stir together tomato juice, vodka, pickling liquid, and lemon juice. Divide among 4 ice-filled glasses, and garnish each with a peperoncino.

Cook's Note

Pureed tomatoes can be strained overnight in the refrigerator. Sunny Marys can be refrigerated for up to 4 hours. Pour over ice just before serving.
