    There is not much to say about this recipe, just dump the ingredients into a blender and whirl until creamy and smooth. Tomatillo juice is ideal for this because of the green color. Tomato juice tends to make it muddy looking. Lemon juice or vinegar could be used but they are a bit too acidic for this and tend to overpower the other tastes.
