Instructions

In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once it’s shimmering, toss in the chopped onion, celery, carrot, and poblano pepper. Cook and stir for about 4-5 minutes until everything is crisp-tender.
Add the garlic in for that aromatic punch and cook for just 1 minute longer until fragrant.
Stir in the broth, crushed tomatoes, and tomato paste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, covered.
After 15 minutes, add the cannellini beans, vodka, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar. Bring back to a boil once more.
Reduce heat and let it simmer uncovered for another 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in lemon juice, horseradish, and pepper. Adjust with more salt, lemon, or pepper as needed.
When serving, sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with optional garnishes.

Notes

This soup is customizable. Feel free to use vegetable broth to make it vegetarian or swap beans based on what you have on hand.
