"We tried this soup and absolutely loved it! It's such a great refreshing summer soup and the coconut milk adds a touch of sweetness that counteracts any spice. We have tried it with crab instead of the shrimp and have tried it without seafood as well. Both are also very good. Additionally we found that if you wanted more spice to start with, cooking in a diced jalepeno pepper from the start does well to add an extra kick!"
