- 240 ml of tomato juice;
- salt, black ground pepper;
- 4 ml of Worcester sauce;
- a little juice of lemon or lime.
The highlight of the drink lies in its preparation.The bottom line is that initially tomato juice is poured into a glass (or glass), followed by pepper and salt, then all this is mixed. Add lemon juice and sauce. A pinch of salt and pepper is poured over the juice, so an intermediate layer is formed between the vodka and the juice. Then, expensive vodka is added to the glass (we agreed that we are making a cocktail based on Russo-Baltique), pour it in better on the blade of the knife. So, if you take as a basis the cost of half a liter of a hot drink - 1 million 400 thousand dollars, then you can calculate how much it will cost 45 ml. the most expensive vodka.
