yes! it makes a nice pitcher that serves 4 big tumblers. i haven't done the numbers for an individual recipe, and that's okay because we're 2 and can't have just one (it's too tasty). usually we drink it all morning while watching bad movies on lazy day (saturday or sunday, depending).
the vodka doesn't have to be expensive btw-- i've done taste tests, and the tomato and spices and citrus acid etc destroy any subtlety and make smoothness irrelevant. so i make it with smirnoff & save the tito's for where it counts.

although most people call worcestershire sauce "lea and perrins" after the brand
or in sheffield (&yorkshire in general) it's "henderson's" (after henderson's relish)

in spanish it's known as salsa inglesa ("english sauce").
