2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 garlic clove, minced

1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, chopped (plus extra for garnish)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a blender, combine the chopped cucumbers, avocados, Greek yogurt, chilled vegetable broth, lime juice, and minced garlic. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

    Add Flavor: With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until fully incorporated. Then, add the chopped mint, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Blend for an additional 10-15 seconds.

      Chill the Soup: Transfer the soup to a large bowl or container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the soup to chill.

        Serve: Once chilled, give the soup a quick stir before serving. Ladle it into bowls and garnish with extra chopped mint and radish slices for an added crunch and visual appeal.
