Creamy Cool Cucumber Coconut Lime Soup with Zoodles (Raw GF Vegan)

1 large Cucumber (350g)
1 small Zucchini (300g)
4 tbs Coconut Creme
OR 1 ripe Avocado
1-2 sprigs of Mint
1/2 tsp of Cumin
Dash of Pink Salt
Juice of 1 large Lime
1 Garlic clove (optional)*
Water to desired consistency

* I wouldn't recommend raw garlic because it is so powerful but if you're a fan then go for it

Wash and peel, if desired, your cucumber. Chop three slices and add the rest to your blender. Wash and peel your zucchini. Spiralize half and add the rest to your blender.
Add to your blender the lime juice, water (start with 1/2 a cup), and avocado or coconut creme. Blend on high.
Add herbs and spices, plus more water if desired. Pulse a few times.
In a bowl, add your zucchini spirals. Pour the soup over. Top with cucumber slices.
Enjoy! :)
