This chilled strawberry soup was a much anticipated event at my house.  I had told the children I was going to try making it and they asked me almost every night if “tonight was the night”.

Of course, our daughter insisted we not make it while she was at basketball camp. She was afraid all her brothers would eat it all and leave her none.  I did make it while she was at basketball camp, though we did save her some.

I’m kind that way. 😉

Chilled Strawberry Soup

I had heard of chilled strawberry soup before and being 100% transparent, I did not think I would like it.  I mean, cold soup?  Strawberry and soup in the same sentence?  Really?

After looking around at some different recipes, I realized it may not be that bad.  Anything with Ginger Ale in the recipe, must be pretty tasty.  Of course you also have strawberries so there is another winner.  The only problem was the sour cream in most recipes.

Not a fan.

I like sour cream on tacos or nachos, but I just couldn’t put it in my strawberry soup.  {Hmm.  I also thought I would like it in cheesecakes either then I tried it and liked it.  Maybe I should re-think this no sour cream idea.} Oh, well. The recipe I put together works, tastes wonderful and is healthier because it doesn’t have sour cream in it.

The verdict for this soup was thumps up all around.  Everybody raved about it.  I was told I must make it again and we may make this for an upcoming birthday party.
