Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh strawberries cleaned and quartered
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt
- 4 tablespoons confectioners sugar
- 2 tablespoons orange juice concentrate
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- Extra yogurt and strawberries for garnish
Instructions
- In a food processor or blender, combine all ingredients; process or blend.
- Ladle into chilled bowls.
- Garnish each serving with a dollop of yogurt and a strawberry.
Notes
- Select Ripe Strawberries: Choose ripe, sweet strawberries for the best flavor in your soup. Look for berries that are brightly colored, firm, and fragrant. Ripe strawberries will lend natural sweetness to the soup, reducing the need for additional sugar.
- Adjust Sweetness and Tanginess: Taste the soup after blending and adjust the sweetness and tanginess according to your preference. If the strawberries are particularly sweet, you may need less confectioners sugar. Similarly, adjust the amount of lemon juice and orange juice concentrate to balance the flavors to your liking.
- Chill for Refreshing Serving: For a refreshing and chilled soup, refrigerate the mixture for at least an hour before serving. Chilling enhances the flavors and provides a refreshing contrast to the sweetness of the strawberries. Serve in chilled bowls to maintain the soup's temperature and freshness. Garnish each serving with a dollop of yogurt and a fresh strawberry for a visually appealing presentation.
