The perfect soup for serving up during the festive period. Fresh cranberries are readily available at this time of year, but frozen ones can also be used (just make sure you defrost them before putting them in a soup maker).
Cranberries can be too bitter in taste for some taste buds, but combining them with some apples, maple syrup and apple juice turn this recipe into a warming and sweet soup.
Cranberries are high in antioxidants and vitamin C – perfect for boosting the immune system whilst fighting off colds.

Is it possible to replace the cranberries with another fruit? (For those times when I can’t find cranberries at all, not even frozen ones)

@Maria,
Hello Maria
I am going to try this one with redcurrants in lieu of cranberries on the grounds that they are of similar size, colour and tartness. I have a bush full of them that I cannot give away - even to the birds! If by chance you live in North Devon, I can supply.
