This simple, clean and very sweet soup is great for people with sore throats or heaty bodies. You can actually drink it cold or hot and it’s ideal for all seasons. I’ve decided to go meatless because I wanted to drink it cool and it turned out fabulous. Fat free, oil free and made with all natural ingredients, it’s great for kids and adults alike.
Any benefits?
- Meatless soup is great for vegetarians and is fat and oil free
- Helps cool the body
- Great for sore throats
- Excellent source of Vitamin C
- Can be drank both cold or hot

Is it possible to replace the onion with something else? I don’t really like onions. Can I use ordinary pears instead of snow pears?
Dear Fern, of course! And yes, I think it depends what type of pear, but try it. I haven’t tried it before, but let me know how it turns out! As well, it surprised me how little you can taste the onions in the soup, but that’s entirely up to you! All the best and thanks for your support! Lisa
