Serving

2 medium beets , scrubbed
1/2 small russet potato , scrubbed
salt , to taste
juice of 1/2 lemon , or to taste
freshly ground black pepper , to taste
1 cup peeled & diced english cucumber
makes: 24-30 shooters

Directions:

Place the beets and potato in a saucepan, add water to cover, and add a scant tablespoon of salt.
Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and let simmer 35-40 minutes, or until the beets and potato are cooked through.
With a slotted spoon, remove the beets and potato to a plate and set aside until cool.
Meanwhile, strain the cooking liquid and let cool.
Peel the beets and potato and combine with 2 cups cooled cooking liquid in a blender.
Process until a smooth puree is achieved.
Transfer the mixture to a pitcher and add enough cooking liquid, and additional water if necessary, until the desired consistency.
Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
Refrigerate until well-chilled.
Pour the chilled soup into chilled shot glasses and add a few cubes of cucumber to each.
Serve immediately.
