Cold Lithuanian Borscht
This is one of the best cold soup to eat in the summer. Since I can remember, my mother-in-law always made this for our family. And I do the same for my family! Fresh cucumber and radish give the soup the delicate freshness of summer. It is very girl 'soup - pink... rather fuchsia colour. I hope that boys will like it too.

That sounds delicious! I recently froze all the beets from the garden and have been wondering what to make with them. I’m going to have to try this.
