This may not be a soup but it is a wonderful drink to have hot or cold and it’s filled with nutrition and immune boosting properties. If you have a herb garden and lemon tree it makes this recipe very easy to make. I usually make a batch of this hot tonic up and then keep adding hot water to the brew until you realise the taste is not as it should be. Makes 1 Litre
