This had to be THE best tomato juice I have ever had! The celery was the perfect touch and I loved the paprika! Thanks for sharing this recipe Renegade!

This is pretty good. I had never had tomato juice before, but my sister said it was good, and I had tomatoes from my MIL. I can drink it plain, but will most likely use it in cooking.
