Fruit Soup?

I've never made a fruit soup or even a cold soup, but this sounds like pure summer bliss!


Ingredients

* 1 tablespoon minced ginger
* 3 cups chopped strawberries
* 2 cups chopped pineapple
* 1 1/2 cups chopped mango
* 2 pieces lemon peel
* 2 pieces lime peel
* 2 pieces orange peel
* 4 cups water
* 1 1/2 cups sugar
* 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
* 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
* 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
* 1 cup blueberries
* Mint sprigs, for garnish

Directions

Saute the ginger in a medium pot over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes (no oil is necessary.) Add 2 cups strawberries, 1 cup pineapple, 3/4 cup mango and the lemon, lime and orange peels; cook for another 2 minutes. Add water, sugar and fruit juices and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 5 minutes and remove from the heat. Allow mixture to cool slightly and then transfer in batches to a blender or food processor. Puree and strain into a large bowl. Add remaining 1 cup strawberries, 1 cup pineapple, 3/4 cup mango and blueberries. Stir to combine, cover and refrigerate until well chilled. Serve with mint sprigs for garnish.
