Fish out and soak in cold water.  Remove skin of tomatoes.  A bit mah fan but indeed without skin tomatoes taste better.  I didn\u2019t mind the skin, so next batch, I think I might just score and blanch the tomatoes without removing the skin.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the tomatoes into a container.  I am using a water tumbler.  Pour sour plum mixture (water and sour plums) into the container.  Add in around 2 tablespoons of honey to sweeten.  (I didn\u2019t mix)  leave in fridge to soak for 1 or 2 days before eating.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/joycelynsoh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/img_7568-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/joycelynsoh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/img_7568-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/joycelynsoh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/img_7568-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/joycelynsoh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/img_7568-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/joycelynsoh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/img_7568-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/joycelynsoh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/img_7568-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Easy refreshing snack.
