Cold Cherry Soup is a summer favorite, providing relief especially on hot days. The soup made from fresh, juicy cherries offers a unique flavor, and the addition of yogurt or sour cream gives it a creamy texture. The sweet and tart taste of cherries perfectly complements the freshness of the soup, which can be served cold or lukewarm.
This soup is not only delicious but also extremely nutritious, as cherries are rich in vitamins and antioxidants. Cold Cherry Soup is a true classic summer dish that is easy to prepare and always provides a refreshing experience. Whether it's a family meal or preparing for a gathering, it certainly won't disappoint.
Place the washed cherries in a saucepan and cover with water. Add the sugar, cinnamon stick, and cloves, then bring to a boil.
Simmer the soup over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, or until the cherries are tender.
Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla sugar, then remove from the heat.
In a separate bowl, whisk the sour cream with a little of the hot soup until smooth. Gradually add the mixture to the soup, stirring well to combine.
Let the soup cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve chilled.
