You had me at
I injected them using a syringe
I went through a massive Bloody Mary phase during the first lockdown. Couldn't get enough of the stuff. It was like the pistachio craze from the year before. Maybe it was an antidote to all the beer I was drinking, maybe I just need way more salt (hard to believe but possible) or maybe it's easier to justify alcoholism if you make fancy drinks with veggies in them ;)

Yo @hippy three recessions ago I worked in bar when I got made redundant from architecture. we all got paid a pittance, basically student wages and shit meals during our shifts. a few of us used to steal stock bring back to mine for Sunday pancakes laced with whatever liquor we could get our hands on, followed by a very boozy lunch.
I was credited for the invention of the cherry bomb in 1990 which accompanied our tex/mex/creole/surf/turf menu
Basically a bite sized Bloody Mary.. as a starter..
cherry tomatoes were pretty new back then in the food stores, I injected them using a syringe with vodka and tabasco sauce, followed up with a celery stick dipped in salt. You had to eat those cherries within the hour, otherwise they all went a bit Pete Tong..
