But every one of those comes from warm climates, and bananas, coffee and chocolate can only be produced within the tropics.
Would you care to share your recipe?
Climate change will cause an invasion from Mars and a revolt from Keebler Elves.

Glad to share! I started with a Copycat V-8 juice recipe. It only makes a quart, so I quadrupled the ingredients so I could make at least 4 quarts at a time, as long as I was messing up the kitchen in the first place!

I also added two seeded (and membranes removed) Jalapeno Peppers, chopped. Also, I cooked it all down together, then ran it through my Food Mill to extract just the juice and put it back into the pot. If it’s too thin, I add some tomato paste to thicken it up, but cooking it down more will also thicken it. Sorry this is not a ‘perfect’ recipe; I like to play around until I find the easiest way to do things, LOL!
After you’ve made the V-8 juice and it’s still in the pot, I added 2 Tbsp. prepared Horseradish (in the quadrupled recipe!) and additional garlic to taste (2-4 tsp.) and as many shakes of Hot Sauce as you like. Then I heated that all through to a simmer, then I hot water bath canned it in quarts for 30 minutes at a full boil.
I also found that if I needed just a ‘smidgen’ more of juice to make that last full quart, I just added store-bought V-8 to top it off.
There are plenty of V-8 juice recipes out there so don’t feel locked into this one. It’s been quite forgiving as long as you have enough tomatoes. I have a glut of cucumbers this season, so I also added one large (2 if you’re making the larger volume) peeled, seeded cuke to the recipe. :)
On, Wisconsin!
Fabulous! Thank you kindly - I’ll give it a try.
Lol!
I’m waiting for UConn football to start...Go Huskies...
I have always been a HUGE fan of just about ANY College Sports - Heck, I’m engaged to a U of A Alum - Roll Tide!
Pretty sure that sealed the deal; I knew Football and how to butcher wild game. ;)
Yes, I count my Blessings - DAILY! :)
