Cranberry-Buttermilk Bisque

"A tart and sweet cold soup, good for a hot summer day. Great way to use those fresh cranberries that you froze during the fall. This works best with the Bulgarian-type buttermilk. This serves 8 as a starter and 4 as a main course. Cook time does not include chilling time. From Crescent Dragonwagon."
