Nutritional values
Buttermilk is good for the intestines because it contains a lot of lactic acid bacteria and calcium, making this an ideal dessert for pregnant and breastfeeding women who have an increased need for bone-strenthening calcium.
Italian almond macaroons called Amarettini taste amazing crumbled on top of this soup. You can also garnish with roasted sunflower seeds or almonds instead, which will add additonal protein as well.

Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds Blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Kitchen utensils
Preparation steps
Rinse the blueberries and drain well; thaw frozen berries. Rinse lemon under hot water, wipe dry and finely grate the zest. Squeeze the lemon. Bring 2 tablespoons lemon juice, two-thirds of the blueberries, the sugar and cassis or syrup to a boil in a pot. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring.
Pass mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing with a ladle to extract as much juice as possible.
Add the remaining blueberries to the strained liquid and let cool completely.
Stir together the buttermilk, honey, soy creamer and lemon zest until smooth. Chill at least 1 hour. To serve, divide the cold soup among soup plates and spoon the blueberry compote in the middle of each. Crumble Amarettini over the top.
