Roasted bell peppers, coconut milk, basil and orange juice: just a few simple ingredients make this amazing cold summer soup. It’s super easy to make, but it’s a real treat in the hot summer weather. It’s sweet and savoury, refreshing and filling, healthy and super flavourful. And oh that colour….a real eye candy!
Moving cities and sitting on piles of boxes are everything but pleasant in this crazy hot weather. So cold blender soups are my savers. We eat tons of gazpachos, carrot, mushroom, green pea, zucchini and lentil soups. They are all quick to make and easy to prepare with limited kitchen tools, too. And the best part is that I can prepare a lots of these soups and eat for days!
So please enjoy this summery soup, it’s unbelievable creamy and delicious! (And please excuse my short posts and that I am not so responsive nowadays. I’ll be back soon.)

I totally want to try this! What awesome flavors!
Thanks, Rebecca!
I love cold soups, and I love mixing sweet peppers with other things. Thus, I’ve tried beet and pepper soup and pepper and….mango soup!:) The last one was a bit crazy haha. But I totally love the combo you’ve got here. Bell peppers and coconut milk sounds fabulous (once I made avocado and coconut soup). I’ve been a bad guy this summer though, and haven’t made any soup. That’s sad:)
Thank you!
Wow, that avocado coconut soup sounds amazing! I have to try it! 🙂
And yes, the mango one sounds a little bit crazy but I can totally see it would be delicious!
I’ve tried cold summer soup before and wasn’t 100% sure I liked it, but THIS looks absolutely fantastic! Definitely on my list to try! 🙂
Thanks, Sarah!
Oh yes please! I love how simple yet flavourful this is. So looking forward to making it!!
Thanks, Kristen!
So yum! I too enjoy easy blender meals – and soups are the best! I’ll have to add this to my soup rotation asap 🙂
🙂
I was never much into cold soups, but this really looks great! I would love to try it.
I haven’t tried, but I’m pretty sure it would be great warm too. I am normally also a warm soup type of girl, but it’s so hot here nowadays, I can’t eat any 😀
I lvoe cold soups and I also love bell pepper + coconut! So that means this alluring soup is calling my name. I need this beauty in my life. Loving all the awesome flavors here! Major drooling, Evi! 🙂
Thank you, Anu! 🙂
You always have the most creative soup recipes Evi. And this one follows suit. I never make cold soups (minus gazpacho) but you have me wondering why I don’t. Looks lovely as always!
Hahaha, it’s actually not me, who is creative, but my fridge/cupboards I had to empty 😀
But thanks ?
Evi, you’ve got the most unique soups ever — always! And I love it 😀 No time to be boring when you eat soup every day like I do. You’ve inspired me to try something new today!
Thank you, Audrey!
One soup a day keeps the doctor away 😉
Gorgeous and delicious! Best of luck with your move, my friend. 🙂
Thanks, Linda! ❤️
This soup looks perfect! Very interesting flavour combination – I love it 😀
Thanks 😉
So many soups, so little time! I must say, E, I’m really enjoying going back through your archives! Are you planning more soups for this autumn and winter? 🙂 Loving how beautifully you present your soups in these little jars too. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve seen cuter soups! Lol… or that I ever thought soup could be cute. M’kay? 😉
The addition of coconut milks brings back such cozy memories of soups that my mom used to make when we were kids. 🙂 Looking forward to more! Hope you have a great week, friend. 🙂
Thank you so much, Demeter! I’m definitely planning more soups for every time of the year, it’s one of my favourite things to eat. Cold in the summer and super hot in the winter time <3
Actually I am just eating now a big bowl of caramelised onion and lentil soup and it's raining here and it's perfect 😀
Regarding the jars, I love them so much too and find them super cute, but the truth is I simply don't have a lots of pretty soup bowls so I always go for jars. Plus you know, see through 😀
