For an extra creamy texture, add a splash of cream or coconut milk before blending. Fresh herbs like dill, mint, or parsley can be added as a garnish for a burst of flavor. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to your liking. Some vegetable broths are saltier than others. Chill the soup for at least 30 minutes before serving for a truly refreshing experience. Serve with a swirl of yogurt or a dollop of sour cream.
