Isn’t this like the prettiest dish you’ve ever seen?! Look at all the great colors!
We made this back in the beginning of August, while it was still hot here in UK, so it may not be a great choice now ,with the coming Autumn, unless you live in a tropical climate. It’s a cold soup, and I don’t think you can make it a ‘warm’ soup now that it’s cooler. But if you’re OK with having cold soup in this weather, I highly recommend it.
