Fresh Blueberries, Toasted Hazelnuts, Kefir, Sour Cream

Sure, we could serve this delightful Spiced Chilled Blueberry Soup without the garnishes but what fun would that be?

Plump juicy blueberries and chopped toasted hazelnuts are mounded in the center. It turns out that blueberries and hazelnuts have an affinity for one another. And if a few edible flowers and fresh mint are available, why not add those too? Now the soup is ready to serve for a colorful summer luncheon. Bon appétit! 🌷
