Method

To make the dressing, whisk the vodka (if using), vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish and hot pepper sauce (to taste) in a bowl, along with any tomato juices. Add the celery salt and enough olive oil to bind it together.
Put the tomatoes and celery in a lidded container and pour over the dressing; seal. Transport the basil to the picnic in a small bag and scatter over the tomatoes before serving.
