Just because the weather is heating up, it doesn't mean you can't enjoy soup. Soup is a staple in the winter, but most people don't have soup once spring begins. Chilled soups are delicious alternatives to traditional hot soups and can be eaten throughout the summer.

- 1 1/4 cups unsweetened apple juice
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
- 1/4 cup coconut milk, skimmed

- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Directions
- Bring 1 cup apple juice to a rolling boil.
- Add corn starch to 1/4 cup cold apple juice till smooth and creamy (no lumps).
