Quick to make and very refreshing on a hot day. This has been adapted from Rita G. Springer's 'Caribbean Cookbook'. I never add the sugar. Obviously, you could add a shot of vodka to make it rather more daring.

Tips
- Select the ripest tomatoes: Use tomatoes that are deeply red and free of blemishes. Overripe tomatoes will yield more juice, but they may have a less vibrant flavor.
- Core the tomatoes: Remove the core from each tomato before juicing. This will help to prevent the juice from becoming bitter.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to core and slice the tomatoes. A sharp knife will also help to prevent the tomatoes from being crushed, which can release unwanted bitterness into the juice.
- Don't over-process the juice: Over-processing the juice can release unwanted bitterness and cloudiness. If you are using a juicer, pulse the tomatoes until they are juiced, but do not over-process them.
- Add seasonings to taste: You can add seasonings such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder to taste. However, be careful not to add too much seasoning, as this can overpower the natural flavor of the tomatoes.
