If you’re saying “I don’t want to know how to make tomato juice”, turn the page. Out here in Paradise we often can’t get “store bought” tomato juice. Now and then I can find DelMonte or Hunt’s but too often its Kiwi tomato juice. Read more I really like Kiwis and have had many a great time in NZ and with Kiwis but about popcorn and tomato juice they ain’t got a clue. Take 2 Tbs of cricket wee, 4 Tbs of Wattie’s tomato sauce (yuck) and a liter of water, stir and you have Kiwi tomato juice. I’m a born and bred Yank but I haven’t lived much in the US for 30 years and not at all for over 20. Don’t want to go all patriotic but when it comes to pop corn and tomato juice (along with a few other things I can think of) its American or its rubbish. So, if you want to make, sort of, real tomato juice, follow the bouncing ball. See less
Ingredients
- • 1 12oz (340g) can good quality tomato past. shopping list
- • 1 tsp salt. shopping list
- • 1 tsp sugar (optional) shopping list
- • ½ tsp fine ground pepper (optional) shopping list

How to make it
- 1. Put all this stuff in a 5 ltr (about 5.5 qt) mixing bowl.
- 2. Get out your trusty whisk and give the lot a brisk hiding. (Yes, you can use a blender but it will put a lot of air in the mix). You want to mix it thoroughly but not beat a lot of air into it.
- 3. Refrigerate soonest.
- This should give you about 1.5 ltrs of primo, “My Way” tomato juice. Add a little vodka, some Tabasco sauce, etc. and celebrate your success.

LOL... I'm learning a lot about the "rest of the story" reading your stuff. Being in the US is a blessing many of us never understand. We think it is a "given". Canned, frozen, packaged, blocked, shredded, etc... somehow we think it is universal. ...more
