This drink will knock off the edge if you get the 3 o'clock munchies. Plus you can get in an extra serving of veggies. You may add alcohol to this, but if your at work, it probably isn't a good idea.

I so totally love this ~ I think I will "pick myself up" everyday! So easy to throw together, and the vinegar as well as the hot sauce just made this even more outstanding. Being the hot pepper head that I am; I used Spicy V8 and still added more the my fair share of Tabasco sauce. Donned it with a crisp asparagus spear, and presto, I was uplifted. Thank you so much, MsSally. Made for Spring Spectacular April 2008.

    Totally delish and a real "pick me up"..........only my batteries let me down, so no photo SORRY! I also used a stick of celery as a stirrer, so I was annoyed not to get photos! Loved the balsamic vinegar - that was a GREAT twist. Thanks MsSally - I will make this again. FT
