Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel, core, and chop the 6 green apples into small cubes.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chopped apples with lemon water to prevent browning, then drain.
  3. Place the drained apples in a 4-quart stock pot.
  4. Add half of the Riesling wine and half of the Calvados to the pot.
  5. Add the remaining ingredients: apple juice, lime juice, orange juice, candied ginger, golden raisins, cumin, allspice, and nutmeg.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  7. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20-30 minutes until the apples are very tender.
  8. Remove from heat and force the contents through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl.
  9. Puree any solids caught in the strainer and return them to the liquid.
  10. Chill the soup thoroughly over an ice bath or in the refrigerator.
  11. Just before serving, whisk in the cream and yogurt until smooth.
  12. Optional: Stir in remaining Calvados and Riesling if a stronger alcohol flavor is desired.
  13. Serve in iced glasses, garnished with chopped fresh mint.
