Yesterday afternoon I started to prepare this soup. After heating the berries, I stuck my finger in and tasted...boy it was SOOOO good I was tempted to have it all then and there, but no, I put it up to chill. When it came time to add sour cream, I used my immerser blender for a fast and smooth job. I also used low-fat sour cream in soup but none on top due to calories. Next time I make this, I will try non-fat plain yogurt to lower fat content. Since I used fresh lemon juice, I also added a pinch of fresh grated lemon zest on top of the finished soup. Without a doubt, YOU HAVE A WINNER!!!
