Cherry Tomato Spritz
Bright and bubbly, this tomato-infused take on the spritz combines muddled yellow cherry tomatoes with tequila, vermouth and lime. The resulting color is a sunny hue (though if you can find only red or orange cherry tomatoes, feel free to switch them in). For tequila, opt for a blanco over a reposado or aged variety to make the drink more herbal and light. Finally, while the recipe is written without garnish, you can always thread a few cherry tomatoes on a skewer and adorn the glass before serving.
Green Tomato Martini
This pale green, gin-forward martini variation gets both its color and lightly earthy, vegetal flavor from tomato water made exclusively with green tomatoes. If you’re looking to tint your drink another color, feel free to swap in yellow or red tomatoes when making the tomato water, which takes very little effort but does take time. Save leftover tomato water in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days and use in other rounds of martinis, combine with a light beer and a little hot sauce over ice, or use in place of water in lemonade.
