I would NOT recommend trying the spicy tomato tea if you are pregnant. I am 6 months pregnant and I thought I would try this when I got a bad case of congestion. I ended up getting even worse heartburn that kept me miserable and awake for half the night!! This drink has everything they tell you to avoid for heartburn (citric acid from tomato and lemon juice plus the hot sauce), but I didn't give it much thought because I haven't had much of an issue with heartburn like some people do during pregnancy (I only had it mildly one other time).
