      This is so good. I've made it yesterday and today. I'm going to do this often and will bring to work also. It's great. Even if I used a V8 that was plenty of sodium. Next time, I'll buy with less sodium, cause the balsamic and tabasco add a lot of taste (I didn't use garlic powder) Thanks MsSally. Made for Holiday tag.

      Mmmm! This is a very tasty & refreshing drink. I made it using low-sodium V8 (the others are all way too salty for me) and, as I was out of Tabasco (would've been my 1st choice), I used 3 dashes of Frank's hot sauce. It was not at all zippy, so I'll probably add more next time. I went light on the garlic, as I was making this for breakfast and didn't want to overwhelm everyone with garlic breath! The sweetness of the balsamic vinegar added a very pleasant note to the flavor, and was very complimentary to the saltiness of the vegetable juice. Thanks so much for posting, MsSally!

      I definitely enjoyed this. I used spicy hot V8, and also added some freshly ground black pepper. I can see this developing into a great bloody mary mix! Took this to work with me, so I have no photos. Made for Every Day is A Holiday Tag!

      I so totally love this ~ I think I will "pick myself up" everyday! So easy to throw together, and the vinegar as well as the hot sauce just made this even more outstanding. Being the *hot* pepper head that I am; I used *Spicy* V8 and still added more the my fair share of Tabasco sauce. Donned it with a crisp asparagus spear, and presto, I was uplifted. Thank you so much, MsSally. Made for *Spring Spectacular* April 2008.

      Totally delish and a real "pick me up"..........only my batteries let me down, so no photo:-( SORRY! I also used a stick of celery as a stirrer, so I was annoyed not to get photos! Loved the balsamic vinegar - that was a GREAT twist. Thanks MsSally - I will make this again. FT:-)
