Ingredients
  • jalapenos from a jar (See note below)
  • ¼ cup yellow onion, diced (1.5 oz.)
  • 1- 4.0 oz can Old El Paso Green Chilis, chopped (not drained or rinsed)
  • ¾ tsp cumin
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 2 tsp white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • ½ tsp lime juice, bottled is fine
  • 1 tsp garlic puree (about 2 cloves worth)
  • ½ tsp agave syrup
  • V-8 Juice
  • Vodka (optional)
  • Your favorite bloody mary garnish - celery, dill pickle spear, olives, etc.
Instructions
  1. Combine base ingredients (jalapenos through agave syrup above) in a blender and puree completely
  2. Add the desired amount of the blended base (I use 1 Tablespoon) to a glass, then fill the glass until about ¾ full with V-8 juice. Add Vodka if desired. Mix well, add some ice cubes and serve with your favorite garnish!
Notes
I've found that jarred jalapenos can really vary in spiciness. Here are a few brands I have tried for the spice level of a medium salsa:
15 rings (0.8 oz.) Tuscan Garden, hot jalapeno rings
12 rings (0.6 oz) Mezetta Deli Style hot jalapenos
5 to 6 rings (0.35 oz.) Wal-Mart Great Value hot jalapenos
