Beetroot and Ginger Soup

I think you're going to like this soup. With beetroot providing a sweet, earthiness along with warming ginger and flavourful garlic, it's basically a hug in a mug! It has a silky smooth texture and if that's not enough to convince you, who can resist that gorgeous vibrant pink colour?!
