Notes
You can leave the soup as is with a thicker consistency instead of blending if you prefer.
Taste test the soup before serving, some tomatoes are tangier than others, so add more sugar (1 tsp at a time) if the soup is too sour.
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
