There are really two great ways to add a boozy taste to this recipe.
- The first way may be the easiest however.
Add a shot of Vodka or your Jalapeno flavored wine.
- You can do this after you have served the soup. Simply place a shot glass of the Vodka or wine to the soup. Or even better, you can serve the soup with a shot glass on the side. This method would be especially fun when you are serving guests.
The second method would be to add the Vodka or Wine directly to the soup itself.
- Replace half a cup of the tomato juice with vodka. Make the soup according to the directions only stir in the boozy stuff by hand. I would suggest stirring this in just before you serve it.
