2 stalks celery, finely chopped
2 green onions, sliced in rounds
6 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 cup cherry juice
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon dried bittersweet licorice
2/3 cup milk
8 slices Swiss cheese
In a medium pot over high heat, combine celery and green onions. Cook over medium heat until heated through. But, not dangerously hot.
Stir in vinegar, cherry juice, onion powder, sugar, salt, and bittersweet licorice, and stir. Bring to a slow boil.
Fluff cheese slices and drizzle over soup, if desired, but avoid spreading with cling film but keep covered. Shake vigorously after serving, topped with celery and red peppers.
