This comforting sweet potato soup gets a bold, aromatic lift from Da Lat Spice — a Vietnamese-inspired blend featuring star anise, coffee, and cocoa. Coconut milk adds creaminess while red onion and garlic build a savory base, creating a cozy, flavorful bowl that's perfect for weeknight dinners. Garnished with fresh cilantro and crispy garlicky croutons, it's an easy soup that feels both exotic and familiar.

As my six year old son says, “this soup is beautiful .” A great way to use sweet potatoes. I like to add 1/2-1 tsp of fish sauce and the juice of one lime. On our regular rotation.
