You can order the “It’s All Greek to Me” at Ajax Tavern right now, or you can make one yourself this weekend and impress your friends. This is one seriously tasty drink.

Here’s what you’ll need for It’s All Greek to Me:
3oz of ABSOLUT Vodka
7oz V8 juice
3 teaspoons of Kalamata olive puree
1/2 lemon and 1/2 lime squeezed
1/2 teaspoon horseradish and 1/2 teaspoon whole grain mustard
3 turns of a grinder of pepper & a pinch of salt
3 dashes of red Tabasco and 3 dashes of green Tabasco
2 dashes of Worcestershire

Plus: 4 basil leaves and 1 dill blossom for each glass

To really make this stand out, make some tomato ice cubes in advance. For this, you’ll want to puree some delicious tomatoes (we chose yellow heirlooms) and then place them in an ice tray, along with a dash of  horseradish, salt and pepper. Freeze cubes overnight.

In pint glass, add the tomato ice cubes, basil leaves and dill blossom. For garnish, skewer one feta-stuffed green olive, one slice of jalapeno and one slice of radish.  Combine all other ingredients listed above in a glass pitcher and pour drinks tableside.
