Ingredients

1 tablespoon minced ginger
3 cups chopped strawberries
2 cups chopped pineapple
1 1/2 cups chopped mango
2 pieces lemon peel
2 pieces lime peel
2 pieces orange peel
4 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 cup blueberries
Mint sprigs, for garnish

Directions

Saute the ginger in a medium pot over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes (no oil is necessary.) Add 2 cups strawberries, 1 cup pineapple, 3/4 cup mango and the lemon, lime and orange peels; cook for another 2 minutes. Add water, sugar and fruit juices and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 5 minutes and remove from the heat. Allow mixture to cool slightly and then transfer in batches to a blender or food processor. Puree and strain into a large bowl. Add remaining 1 cup strawberries, 1 cup pineapple, 3/4 cup mango and blueberries. Stir to combine, cover and refrigerate until well chilled. Serve with mint sprigs for garnish.

Fruit Soup
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This soup was delicious. It was sweet and tangy, and the combination of the pureed/strained cooked fruit with the fresh... fruit was great. It was sweet (but not too sweet) and refreshing. My only complaint is with the quantities of orange, lime and lemon peel. I did not see this episode, so the term "2 pieces lemon peel" was hard to quantify! I spent quite a while debating (with myslef) how big is a "piece"! I just ended up guessing (using a wedge size as a piece), and the taste of peel in the finished product was a little too strong for my husband, but I liked it. So, if you don't like the taste of peels, you should use very small pieces I guess (or omit them- not sure if the're necessary). The soup tasted great the next day too.Read more

Absolutely amazing
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This soup is heavenly. Next time I will reduce the sugar content by 1/2 cup, as the fruit was sweet enough without all of... the extra sugar. Our whole family enjoyed this one. Thank you!Read more

Beautiful sweet soup
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this soup for a "soup-off" contest at work. It was the only sweet soup and the only cold soup, but it was loved by... everyone. I got 2nd place!Read more
