Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons McCormick Gourmet™ Organic Fennel Seed
- 1/2 cup vodka
- 4 small cherry tomatoes
- 4 small pimiento-stuffed Spanish olives
- 3 cups tomato juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon peri-peri sauce
INSTRUCTIONS

- 3 Stir tomato juice, reserved vodka mixture, lemon juice and peri-peri sauce in large pitcher until well blended. Pour into ice-filled glasses. Garnish with tomato and olive skewers
