Vodka cherry tomatoes with iced vodka shots

Method

1. Prick each tomato all over with a cocktail stick and place in a 1-litre sterilised jar with a tight-fitting lid. Pour over the vodka, then add the peppercorns, chilli, celery salt and lemon slices. Seal, gently shake the jar and set aside in a cool place for 2-3 days. Shake the jar every now and then.
2. On the day of serving, strain the soaked tomatoes through a fine sieve over a measuring jug. Reserve the spiced vodka and chill it for 1 hour. Transfer the soaked tomatoes to a serving bowl, discarding the peppercorns, chilli and lemon slices. Cover and set aside at room temperature until ready to serve.
3. Meanwhile, place 6 shot glasses in the freezer for 30 minutes to chill.
4. Divide the chilled vodka between the shot glasses and serve with the vodka tomatoes.
