COLD BLUEBERRY "SOUP"

Steps:

• Cut honeydew into small chunks that your blender or food processor can handle.
• Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender) and puree until the only solids that remain are blueberry skins.
• Strain mixture using a mesh strainer or similar device. I generally strain the entire batch twice to get rid of the majority of the blueberry skin pieces.
• Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving; I like to chill it overnight.
• Serve "plain" as is, with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, and/or garnish with a few whole blueberries.

• Cool the mixture a little, then puree in a blender, taking care not to burn yourself (or tarnish things with the blueberry juice, which will stain). Taste and add more sugar or cinnamon if necessary. Chill, then stir in yogurt or sour cream. Serve cold, garnished with more yogurt or sour cream.
