Spicy Tomato Soup

1 cup spicy tomato juice 1 1/2 cup of tomato juice 1/2 cup of minced green pepper 2 tablespoons minced onion 3 tablespoon white wine 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 dash of hot sauce Directions: This is a really easy soup.  Through all your ingredients into the pot and let simmer for 15 minutes.  Ready to serve, I like to put some croutons on top for some added crunch.  Another option is to puree and chill and serve like a gazpacho.
