Blackcurrant gazpacho
In my opinion, blackcurrant gazpacho is slightly different from the classic recipes with sausage. This cold soup has a more refreshing taste, it is prepared without any meat products, it is very light and does not leave a feeling of heaviness. For preparation, you can buy ready-made blackcurrant juice or squeeze it from blackcurrants in any convenient way for you.

Directions
To prepare blackcurrant okroshka, you need boiled water, blackcurrant juice, sugar, marinated mushrooms, pickled cucumbers, potatoes, chicken egg, bay leaf, salt, ground pepper, sour cream, and herbs.
Rinse the potatoes and chicken eggs. Place them in a saucepan, pour cold water over them, and bring to a boil until cooked through.
Pour room temperature boiled water into a saucepan, add sugar and bay leaf. Heat the mixture to 50-60 degrees. Then cool it to room temperature. For quick cooling, you can place the container with heated water in a larger pot with cold water.
Pour currant juice into the cooled water and mix. While all the other ingredients are being prepared, refrigerate the currant water to cool.
Cool and peel the boiled potatoes and eggs, then cut them into small, random-sized chunks. Place them in a deep bowl.
Rinse the pickles, dry them, and cut them into half circles or cubes. Add them to the potatoes.
Cut the pickled mushrooms into small pieces. You can use any mushrooms of your choice. Add them to the rest of the ingredients.
Add any chopped herbs (dill, parsley, green onions, cilantro, basil). Mix all the ingredients together.
Pour the vegetable mix into individual bowls, pour chilled blackcurrant water. Season with salt, pepper to taste and dress with sour cream. Blackcurrant gazpacho is ready.
Enjoy your meal!
