Steps:

• Put cucumber, garlic, scallions, capsicum, herbs, vinegar, sugar, stock & half the chopped avocado into a food processor fitted with a steel blade (or put the ingredients straight into the serving bowl & use a hand-held blender with equal results & less dishes!).
• Blend well, then pour into a large serving bowl and add wine, salt, pepper, olive oil & diced tomato.
• From now on it must be stirred, not blended.
• Just before serving, toss the remaining avocado in the lemon juice, stir into the soup & serve with garlic croutons.

Add, in batches, to a blender and puree until smooth, straining each batch of puree into a large bowl. Stir in the 1 teaspoon of salt and the 1 teaspoon of pepper, then cover and refrigerate until well chilled, about 3 hours.
• Pour the chilled soup into individual bowls. Top each serving with a drizzle of the sour cream. Serve with crostini or croutons, if desired.
