I thought the texture of this soup could be a little creamier. Possibly try adding sour cream after the 2 hours of chilling. Maybe whisk it into a small amount of the soup in a little bowl and then fold that in to the full batch in with a rubber spatula (to prevent sour cream chunks)

Got some tips or comments
