Strawberry Vanilla Dragonfruit Soup (Cold)
Author: Guava Rose
Prep time: 5 mins
Total time: 5 mins
Ingredients
  • 1 dragonfruit (white flesh)
  • 1 c. frozen strawberries
  • ½ c. apple juice (fresh if available)
  • ¼ c. diced fresh strawberries
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Slice dragonfruit in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove white flesh (Do not scoop the bright pink part around the white flesh--it's pretty tough and inedible). Dice the flesh into small cubes and set aside.
  2. Place frozen strawberries, apple juice, vanilla extract, and about ½ c. diced dragonfruit into a high powered blender. Blend until mixture is smooth. This should yield approximately 1-1/2 cups of soup.
  3. Pour into small bowls and top with the diced dragonfruit and diced fresh strawberries.
  4. The two scooped out dragonfruit halves may also be used as bowls. Just make sure they are sturdy enough by leaving ~1/2" of the white flesh all around. This flesh can be scooped out and eaten along with the soup.
