Chilled fruit soup recipe

Does anyone have the chilled soup recipes for Royal Caribbean? The fruit ones such as strawberry, peach or watermelon specifically.

Yum! There was a thread started in July '07 with many of the chilled soup recipes. Just go to 'Search' and enter 'chilled soup recipes'. I think the thread may be titled 'fruit soup recipes.

Have fun. Most of these were posted a while ago on here by CC LibertyBell.
Some of us found others.

Strawberry soup.

1pint (150G) Fresh Raspberries (gently washed)
1pint (150g) Fresh Strawberries (gently washed and trimmed)
2 cups (500ml) sour cream
1cup (250ml) whole milk
1cup (250ml) Ginger ale
1/4 cup (60g) Granulated Sugar
2 tablespoons triple sec ( Triple Sec is an alcohol... It is a very refined, white curacao and tends to be very sweet.)
2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
Fresh Mint leaves (for Garnish)

1. Reserve 6 of the strawberries and 12 of the raspberries for garnish. In a blender or food processor combine the remaining berries and puree until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve over a nonreative bowl, pushing through as much of the pulp as you can, leaving the seeds behind.

2. Whisk the remaining ingredients, except the reserved berries and mint, into a puree. Cover and refrigerate until cold. To serve, divide the soup among chilled soup bowls and garnish with the reserved berried and mint leaves.

Chilled Roasted Peach Soup

4 ripe large peaches, peeled, halved and pitted
1 1/2 cups (345g) granulated sugar
2 cups (500ml) peach nectar, plus extra if needed
1 star anise, cracked
1 vanilla bean, split
Juice of 3 oranges
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 pint (150g) strawberries, gently washed
2 springs fresh mint

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F/ 200 degrees c. Lightly coat a baking sheet with butter. Place the peach halves; cut side down, on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle peaches with 1/2 cup (70g) sugar and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until well roasted.

2. Transfer peaches to a food processor, along with any drippings from the baking sheet. Puree until smooth, stopping 2 or 3 times to scrape down the sides. Transfer to a large noncreative bowl and set aside.

3. In a small noncreative saucepan, combine peach nectar, remaining sugar and star anise over medium heat. Use the tip of a blunt knife to scrape the vanilla bean seeds into a mixture. Bring to a boil and then remove from heat. Let syrup infuse for about an hour in a warm place. Strain through a fine sieve into a noncreative bowl and add citrus juices.

4. Tasting as you go, slowly add the peach syrup to the peach puree until desired flavor is achieved. If the soup is nicely flavored but too thick, thin it with a little plain peach juice. Cover and refrigerate until completely cod.

5. To serve ladle the soup into chilled soup plates or cups and garnish with the sliced strawberries and mint sprigs.
