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

I like the other reviewers thought that this was a nice change to the plain V8 juice. Made as written. Thanks for posting! Made for 123 wonders game.

I drink a lot of V8 so this was a nice change of pace. Made this as written. Will use again in the future. Thanks MsSally

GREAT and healthy pick me up! This was terrific! I really enjoyed the tang from the balsamic vinegar and the hot sauce just sent it over the top for me! Thanks for getting me through the day! Made for Bev Tag!

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.

This is so good. I've made it yesterday and today. I'm going to do this often and will bring to work also. It's great. Even if I used a V8 that was plenty of sodium. Next time, I'll buy with less sodium, cause the balsamic and tabasco add a lot of taste (I didn't use garlic powder) Thanks MsSally. Made for Holiday tag.

Mmmm! This is a very tasty & refreshing drink. I made it using low-sodium V8 (the others are all way too salty for me) and, as I was out of Tabasco (would've been my 1st choice), I used 3 dashes of Frank's hot sauce. It was not at all zippy, so I'll probably add more next time. I went light on the garlic, as I was making this for breakfast and didn't want to overwhelm everyone with garlic breath! The sweetness of the balsamic vinegar added a very pleasant note to the flavor, and was very complimentary to the saltiness of the vegetable juice. Thanks so much for posting, MsSally!

I definitely enjoyed this. I used spicy hot V8, and also added some freshly ground black pepper. I can see this developing into a great bloody mary mix! Took this to work with me, so I have no photos. Made for Every Day is A Holiday Tag!
