Ingredients
  

4 medium cucumbers, peeled and chopped

1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)

1/2 cup vegetable broth

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried dill)

1 clove garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for a richer flavor)

Optional garnishes: chopped chives, diced cucumber, or a drizzle of coconut milk

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cucumbers: Start by peeling and chopping the cucumbers into chunks. Set aside some small diced cucumber for garnish if desired.

    Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the chopped cucumbers, coconut milk, vegetable broth, fresh lemon juice, dill, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and ground cumin.

      Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high until completely smooth and creamy. If the soup is too thick, add a little more vegetable broth or water until reaching your preferred consistency.

        Taste and Adjust: Once blended, taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You might want to add more lemon juice for tanginess or more salt to enhance the flavors.

          Chill: Transfer the soup to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully and makes the soup refreshingly cold.

            Serve: When ready to serve, ladle the chilled soup into bowls. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil, and garnish with the reserved diced cucumber and chopped chives or additional dill if desired.

              Enjoy: This vegan creamy cucumber soup can be served as a light appetizer or a refreshing summer meal. Enjoy it with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete dish!
