Add lemon juice to jars or to pot?

Directions for using lemon juice in canning tomato juice say to add 2T per quart jar.

I'd like to add 1 cup lemon juice (that is 16 T) to my hot pot of tomato juice which is 6 quarts + 3 cups. That way it will be a total of 7 quarts lemoned tomato juice and there will be an extra 2T lemon juice spread among the 7 quart jars.

It just seems easier to measure the larger volume once.

Is there a reason ONLY to add the lemon juice to one jar at a time?
