Chop tomatoes and place in a large jar with the lemon zest, celery seeds, salt and vodka, leave in a cool cupboard for a week
Strain the solids out in a sieve lined with 2 layers of kitchen roll or muslin
Make a simple syrup by simmering the sugar in the water for 5 minutes and add this to the tomato water and pour into a sterilised bottle
Notes
I have estimated 17 shots in a 750ml bottle, of course, this all depends on the size of your measures!This tomato water liqueur will keep for up to a year in a cool dark cupboardOmit the simple syrup if you don’t want a sweet liqueur but a tomato water infusion instead. This is perfect for savoury cocktails etc.
