Mint Basil and Balsamic Strawberry Soup

Refreshing and fragrant with garden herbs and fruit, this beautiful Mint, Basil and Balsamic Strawberry Soup makes an elegantly simple dessert. Happy Monday!

Ingredients (serves 3):

a dozen medium, very ripe Garden Strawberries + 3 smaller for garnish

half a dozen freshly picked small mint leaves

half a dozen freshly picked large Garden Basil Leaves 

2 teaspoons caster sugar

1 1/2 tablespoon Modena Balsamic Vinegar

Rinse Garden Strawberries under cold water. Halve them and place them in a blender.

Tear in mint leaves and Basil Leaves. Sprinkle with caster sugar, and drizzle in Balsamic Vinegar. Close blender and process on high speed until very smooth.

Pour Strawberry soup into three serving cups, and chill in the refrigerator, at least one hour before serving.

Just before serving, cut three reserved Strawberries into thin slices and gently place on top of each cup.

Serve Mint, Basil and Balsamic Strawberry Soup immediately.
