This delicious and light dessert is welcomed by most, even after a big meal. It can be made with either fresh or frozen berries. When in season, float bite-size pieces of melon in the soup along with the berries. This soup is delicious served with crème fraîche or vanilla yogurt.
Kitchen Tip: Consider serving the soup as a warm dessert with ginger cookies.http://www.drgreene.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=drgrecipe
