• 1 teaspoon honey, optional

Follow these steps:

1. Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
2. Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed.
3. Blend for 5 minutes 45 seconds or until heavy steam escapes from the vented lid. Serve immediately.

Chef's Notes:

Add 1/2 cup (120ml) of coconut milk at the end of the blending cycle to give the soup a richer flavor. If you do not like spicy food, you may leave the chili pepper out of the soup.
