An interesting and tasty combination of flavors. I did a rustic version, with ground peanuts and finely chopped apples and tomatoes rather than juice. I also used sweet onion. We scooped it up on crackers. The kids really enjoyed this until they knew what it was, then they looked pretty doubtful but still couldn't stop eating.

You can sub unsweetened applesauce for the apple juice and plain tomato sauce/crushed tomatoes for the tomato juice; if the sauce comes out too thick for you, add a little water. I also amp the ginger up and the cayenne _way_ up, and I don't bother with the fancy stuff--ordinary tomato juice and regular peanut butter are fine. Finally, I usually but not always blenderize the sauce till smooth.
