Chilled watermelon soup?

Question

I go to a nice szechaun restaurant and at the end of the meal they bring me a "soup" of clear watermelon juice with small pieces of watermelon. If you have a clue what I am talking about a recipe would be nice

Answer 1

I am a former chef, and it is made like tomato consumme, you blend the tomato's or watermelon into a mush, then put the mass into a cheesecloth, muslin or lined container and allow the clear liquid to drain out into annother dish or bowl without the solids, then you sweeten and flavour it, at serving time you cut the garnish, as you said a bit of watermelon or with the tomato's just some of those usually a yellow hybrid and a garnish of green onions or chives.

For the watermelon, add a bit of pomegranate juice for colour and a few pomegranate seeds with the watermelon as garnish, sweeten it with honey, even a splash of booze if for an adult crowd, vodka or an orange one like Triple Sec or Cointreau
