My absolutely favorite cold beetroot soup for hot summer! Tried it in Lithuania on my vacation few years back and it was love at first sip. It is called Šaltibarščiai (sorry if I misspelled something I’m not Lithuanian:)). It’s fantastic!

As a a died in the wool Lithuanian through band through it gave me a warm feeling seeing this on Lemmy as the Lithuanian subs are not yet populated so this has been a glaring hole in my feed.
For anyone interested there is a winter version simply called ‘Barščiai’ which is also amazing.
Skanaus!
Also big in Poland. The winter version is called “chłodnik litewski” — literally “lithuanian cooler”. And yeah it’s basically cold borszcz.
Ukraine too! My Ukrainian grandfather made it.
I was going to say, that looks like a crazy borszcz.
Konsume cool beet root soup in summer, enjoy side of potat. Awake in gulag, potat is lie, such is lyfe.
Im sure this tastes great, but my mind immediately thinks “pepto bismol soup”
I’m sure it’s great but the thumbnail made me think it would be some kind of creamy blueberry with egg lol
We have the same in Latvia, amazing stuff and super easy to make!
Always wondered about cold soups. I’ve only had had soups. This one looks almost like a desert due to color.
It is made from kefir milk so it is really refreshing.
I mean, when you mention milk. Cereal is a soup. 🤔
I love a good gezpacho in the summer. Super refreshing
This one’s new to me and it sounds delicious. I love everything that’s in it. The colour is gonna be a challenge for westerners though… Pepto Bismol trauma giving me an unpleasant Pavolvian response to that shade of pink haha
Feel like it might be worth trying anyway
Let it sit in the fridge longer and it will turn almost purple. But I’m not that patient.
Cold peach soup is my favourite cold soup: https://www.melaniecooks.com/chilled-peach-soup/12437/
Peach smoothie in a bowl?
Almost, a little more savoury when done right.
Wow that looks amazing. Thanks for sharing!
Wow is that a pretty dish
I love the colour. It looks like Dr. Seuss soup haha
The color kind of reminds me of Pepto-Bismol though I’m sure it doesn’t taste like Pepto-Bismol.
Yeah I have no idea what weird mystery soup that is so I’m gonna assume it is Pepto-Bismol.
No idea what does Pepto-Bismol taste like, lol
It tastes like viscous chalky milk with a faint minty taste.
That…sounds horrible. lol
Indeed it is, whenever I take it the taste makes me want to vomit. It usually makes me feel better afterwards so in a way it’s worth it (I only take it in the instance where I have a very bad stomach ace).
That looks delicious AND pretty, would you mind sharing your recipe?

Makes me think of pepto bismol. But I’d still be up for giving it a try
