CHERRY TOMATOES MARINATED IN PEPPER VODKA

Ingredients

1 Pint Cherry Tomatoes

2/3 Cup Pepper Vodka

2 Tbsp. Kosher or Coarse Salt

1 Tbsp. Minced Fresh Thyme Leaves

Instructions

1. Carefully skewer each cherry tomato in a half dozen places with a toothpick.  (This lets the vodka penetrate and flavor the tomatoes.)  Place the tomatoes in a bowl and add the vodka.  Marinate the tomatoes, turning them occasionally, for several hours.
2. Combine the salt and thyme and place the mixture in a small bowl. 
3. Drain off most of the vodka from the tomatoes.  Place the tomatoes and a little of the vodka in a serving bowl. 
4. Skewer tomatoes with toothpicks, then dip them in the seasoned herb salt.
