1cupGinger liqueur (plus one tablespoon, reserved)
3Chicken bouillon cubes (well, that's what it SAYS)
4tablespoonsButter
2cupsMilk
2tablespoonsFlour
2tablespoonsSugar
¼Quarter teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

from the company's own little cookbook Simmer the carrots, onions, ginger liqueur, bouillon cubes and butter together until the carrots are tender, then cool slightly. Puree in a blender or processor, then blend in milk, flour, sugar and ground ginger.

Return to the pot and simmer until thickened, stirring occasionally.

Stir in the remaining one tablespoon liqueur and add more milk if you feel the soup is too thick. Season with salt and pepper to taste. A few chives sprinkled on won't hurt.
