It surprised me a bit that chilled soups appeared as appys on every dinner menu of our recent cruise, but this could not be easier to fix-in-a-flash soup was a bigger surprise than most. From *The Carnival Experience* by Peter Leypold (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines), this soup allows you to indulge yourself w/a dessert cocktail both before & after your meal. *Enjoy* ! Ingredients:
3 cups vanilla ice cream |
1 cup sparkling wine |
1 cup whipping cream |
1/4 cup creme de cassis |
1/2 teaspoon gingerroot (finely grated) |
3/4 cup fresh red currant (to garnish) |
6 sprigs fresh mint (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Place ice cream, wine, cream, liqueur & gingerroot in a blender container. Blend on high till smooth. 2. Divide soup into 6 soup bowls, garnish ea w/2 tbsp of red currants + a mint sprig & serve immediately. |
