Also, I forgot to add...

Using other liquids besides OJ is good too. Champagne works well, reduced wines for say, watermelon soup works good too.

Dessert soups are also kinda interesting and fun. We did alot of them this summer, mango, strawberry, papaya, pineapple, etc. They are super easy and you can combine the 2 like in the top picture to contrast the color and flavors, making them elegant.

Im not quite sure of the exact recipe, but basic mango soup (dessert) is ..

Mangos - Peeled and cut into chunks your blender can handle (Ripe or unripe, you can sweeten them later)
Sugar to taste, probably 1c for 4 mangos
tiny tiny pinch of salt
Liquid to thin so the mango will blend - I suggest using champagne, reisling, oj, water, simple syrup or whatever else you want to experiment with. Water works, but imparting flavor with another liquid makes it that much better.
Lemon or Lime juice and/or zest - Mince zest or use a Microplane so you arent eating chunks of it

Basically puree your mango with liquid, you can strain thru cheesecloth or your basic strainer if you want, unstrained leaves texture which may be desirable or no, its your soup. Then add sugar to taste, should be sweet since its a dessert. Add juice and/or zest. Chill and serve.

Ill work on exact amounts as this is a tad cryptic, but I do 3-4 cases of mango at a time, and unless you are feeding 50-75, I doubt youll need that much.
