This is a great summer dish because it's light and there is no cooking involved whatsoever. You literally throw everything into a blender and let 'er go. Dinner in 5 minutes? No problem. Cold soup or soups made of fruit may seem kind of odd if you aren't used to these things, but I know you will like it if you give it a try with an open mind. This soup is sweet from the grapes, but is balanced with the acidity of the lime and savory onion and pepper. Try it with a peanut butter sandwich for a new take on the classic PB and J flavors!
