A mild take on the bloody mary that swaps the usual heat and spice for more mellow flavours, making it an ideal start to a long day. Serves one.

4 cherry tomatoes
3 basil leaves (save 1 to garnish)
1 small pinch ground coriander
1 small pinch celery salt
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
3 chives, roughly chopped
25ml vodka (Stolichnaya, for preference)
2 olives, to garnish
1 sun-dried tomato, to garnish

Put everything bar the garnishes in a blender, add a scoop of crushed ice and blitz smooth. Pour into a chilled highball glass, garnish and serve.

• Salvatore Calabrese for the Holy Birds, London E1.
