Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 50 grams sugar
- 60 ml fresh orange juice
- 250 ml champagne
- 100 ml heavy cream
- 5 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tsp lemon zest
Instructions
Wash the fresh strawberries thoroughly under running water, then hull them by removing the green tops.
Place the strawberries and sugar in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and well combined.
Add the fresh orange juice and lemon zest to the strawberry puree, and blend again briefly to mix.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove any seeds or pulp. Discard the solids.
Gently stir in the champagne. Be careful not to overmix to preserve the bubbles for a light and fizzy texture.
In a separate small bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms soft peaks. Carefully fold some of the whipped cream into the soup for a creamy texture, reserving a little for garnish if desired.
Chill the soup in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the soup to cool thoroughly.
Ladle the chilled soup into serving bowls or glasses. Top with a dollop of whipped cream, garnish with fresh mint leaves, and serve immediately.
