How to Make the Tomatini: The Perfect Cocktail Recipe

Slice 2 cherry tomatoes in half and drop them into a shaker.

Use a muddler to gently release the juice from the tomatoes.

Add 60 ml of vodka to the shaker.

Pour in 15 ml of white balsamic vinegar.

Add 15 ml of fresh squeezed lemon juice.

Add 10 ml of sugar syrup.

Add a pinch of black pepper to the mixture.

Fill the shaker with ice and shake for about 10 seconds to chill the mixture.

Double strain the mixture into a frozen martini glass to remove tomato seeds and ice shards.

Optionally, rim the glass with black pepper if desired.

Garnish with a whole cherry tomato on a cocktail pick.
