The Soup Peddler

The Soup Peddler’s name is more literal than you might think: founder David Ansel started the company years ago by cycling soup orders to residents of Bouldin Creek. But since soup isn’t a viable year-round option in Texas, he soon expanded into the juice realm, offering twelve signature concoctions (like the Afternoon Delight, made with beet, watermelon, pineapple, ginger, lemon, mint, maca and rosewater), plus the opportunity to mix and match your own. Smoothies are split into three categories, with pricing to match: entry level (basic blends with just a couple ingredients), second tier (which include ingredients like bee pollen, goji berries and and flax meal) and upper echelon (which brings you to creations like the Magic Carpet Ride, made with cherry, pistachio, tahini, sumac, Himalayan salt, banana and coconut water). In addition to signature daily soups, each of The Soup Peddler’s five locations also offers salads and sandwiches.
