Cherry Soup~



I love this time of year when cherries are plentiful..Love their color..shape..taste..
I found this that intrigued me..

The addition of the red wine just sounded so delicious..and it is..
A perfect soup:) As Dominique calls it.."Soupe Aux Cerises"~

Ingredients are simple..



Some red wine too of course..

and le tour est joué..



Delicious summer dessert on the porch..

Served over your favorite ice cream~
