This was so good! I served it at a cast party for a play about a Norwegian family- everyone raved about it! I guess the starch in the rice helps to thicken the soup, but there wasn't any noticeable thickness. I didn't waste the rice though, I tranferred it to another pan, cooked it in more water, and mixed it with some instant vanilla pudding to make a mock rice pudding. I think I may try strawberries next time because the raspberry seeds are hard to eat.

This fruit soup is very refreshing, but I could do without the rice. Otherwise, I followed the recipie bu did add a cup more of the red raspberries. Very cool on a hot summer day.
