Caprese Shooters - Old Bay - 04-10-2006
This a variation on the caprese salad kabobs in Vol. 56.
Place 1 cup tomato juice, 1/2 cup vodka, 1 Tbls. of pesto, and hot sauce to taste in a blender and blend until smooth. Work with everything cold. Place one small cube of mozzarella and 1/2 cherry tomato in each of 6 shot glasses. Pour the vodka mixture in the glass to cover. Serve on a bed of ice.
