Notes
- If you are using red radishes you might want to peel them to preserve the beautiful green color of this soup.
- Adjust the ingredients to your taste. This soup would also work well with half an avocado if you want more of the cucumber flavor.
- The vinegar adds a little zing, but can be reduced to a teaspoon if you prefer that flavor. You can use regular white vinegar or apple cider vinegar if you prefer.
- I use chilled filtered water in this recipe.
- This soup recipe is a great way to consume several portions of fruits and vegetables in one meal.
