Ingredients

2 medium beets, scrubbed

1/2 small russet potato, scrubbed

salt, to taste

juice of 1/2 lemon, or to taste

freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 cup peeled & diced English cucumber

Makes: 24-30 shooters

Note: A splash of Vodka added is a real treat!

Directions

Place the beets and potato in a saucepan, add water to cover, and add a scant tablespoon of salt.

Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and let simmer 35-40 minutes, or until the beets and potato are cooked through.

With a slotted spoon, remove the beets and potato to a plate and set aside until cool.

Meanwhile, strain the cooking liquid and let cool.

Peel the beets and potato and combine with 2 cups cooled cooking liquid in a blender.

Process until a smooth puree is achieved.

Transfer the mixture to a pitcher and add enough cooking liquid, and additional water if necessary, until the desired consistency.

Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.

Refrigerate until well-chilled.

Pour the chilled soup into chilled shot glasses and add a few cubes of cucumber to each.

Serve immediately.
