This was fabulous! I made it for a large group today and they all loved it. I basically tripled the recipe but I used 2 English cukes (they were huge), about 4 cups of O.J., 2 jalapeno peppers, 1 each of yellow, red and orange bell peppers, 1 small red onion, and cilantro. The ingredients were the same but I adjusted the amounts a bit for the larger recipe. I also let it sit overnight and it was good advice. It mellowed a lot. The taste was wonderful and refreshing and it's now in my favorite recipes folder. Try this one. You really can't describe the flavor.

Thank you so much. The tomato is too acidic for me, and though I'm not a fan of cold soups, I love this recipe.

This recipe is so refreshing and crisp. I'm a big fan of cold soups, and this one is so simple and easy on a hot summer day.

Very good but a lot of chopping. I'd suggest using a bit less onion than the recipe states.

Great taste however Its definetely more watery than I would like. I tried it with less orange juice, cilantro, and try only processing half of the watermelon and dice the rest along with half of a cantaloupe

AWESOME! Fast, easy, and delicious. I substituted peach/white cranberry juice instead of orange juice, which probably made a big difference in taste, but it was still a great summer dish. Thank you!

Really good and refreshing. Definitely needs to be chilled overnight. Tastes amazing the next day. I love the combination of salty/garlic/sweet/sour/hot. It's a pretty good combination of flavours.

This was OK - I was disappointed after reading all the other great reviews. Perhaps my palate is not sophisticated enough to appreciate this one. My kids are champs at trying new things and neither one liked this at all. Probably will not make this one again.

We like this a lot at my house. I substituted the juice of one ripe orange and two lemons for the orange juice and lime juice, and left out the garlic. It makes and excellent side dish for really spicy gumbo, with some crusty bread.

I was intrigued by the concept of the cold soups.. so I decided to give this a try. I used Parsley (it was on hand) and orange bell peppers (they were on sale)... it came out very well, very cool and mildly sweet flavors. The notes are crisp from the vegetables and fruits in the soup, and no one flavor of anything stands out. I served it to the boys and they were in awe, it was gone very quickly. I suggest you try it just to see how you like it! I was hoping the acidity would be brought down from the cukes and the watermelon, so my only suggestion is to get the low-acid OJ, I will make it again with the low-acid someday. Perfect dish for a hot day when you dont want to eat. I also saved a smidge in a bowl to be refrigerated overnight, the next day it had AMAZING flavor. I highly recommend putting it in the fridge overnight.

I cut the recipe in half & I added two small homegrown serrano peppers (omtting the jalapeno). I also used an orange bell pepper because that's what I had. Pam's recipes are great so I never make many changes. This was really good & refreshing & paired perfectly w/ Grilled Honey Shrimp & Grilled Asparagus w/ Orange Wasabi Sauce. Thansk for another great recipe Pam!

All the adults who tried this gazpacho enjoyed it very much. The children didn't care for it, but I didn't really expect them to. This is an excellent, refreshing soup. I imagine if it were all pureed, it would also make a nice drink (a la V-8)

This recipe goes down like gangbusters everytime I make it for a summer BBQ. Everyone begins by being incredibly skeptical; "watermelon soup with GARLIC???" but ends up raving. The second time I made it I added 2 extra cloves of garlic and used 3 cups of watermelon and OJ. The taste effect was negligable. Make this!

I really enjoyed this. I thought it sounded weird and after I tasted the watermelon that I bought (which was mediocre) I didn't think this would be good, but I was wrong. It was very refreshing and lighter than a normal gazpacho. I paired it with chili and that was perfect! I followed the recipe except that once it was done it was a little too chunky for my taste and put it back in the blender for a very quick spin.
