Blueberry Soup recipe combines fresh blueberries, a hint of citrus, and a touch of sweetness, chilled treat that’s perfect for any occasion
Ingredients:
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust according to your taste and the sweetness of the blueberries)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 cups water or fruit juice (apple juice or orange juice work well)
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt or sour cream (for a creamy version)
- Fresh mint leaves or basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon stick, and water or fruit juice.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for about 10-15 minutes, or until the blueberries are soft and the liquid has slightly thickened.
- Remove the cinnamon stick from the soup and allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes.
- Using a blender or immersion blender, puree the blueberry mixture until smooth. If you prefer a chunky texture, you can skip this step or pulse the blender a few times for a chunkier consistency.
- If you want a creamy version, stir in the plain yogurt or sour cream until well combined. You can adjust the amount of yogurt or sour cream based on your preference.
- Taste the soup and adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more sugar or lemon juice if needed.
- Cover the soup and refrigerate it for at least an hour to chill and let the flavors meld.
- Before serving, garnish the blueberry soup with fresh mint leaves or basil leaves for a burst of freshness.
- Serve the Blueberry Soup chilled in bowls or glasses. It can be a refreshing dessert or a delightful appetizer, especially in the summertime.
