Follow these simple steps to create this incredible Creamy Spinach Soup with Fresh Mint:

1. Heat Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Sauté Onions: Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Add Spinach: Pour in the chopped spinach and cook until it wilts, roughly 3-4 minutes.
5. Add Broth: Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle boil.
6. Simmer: Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes to blend the flavors.
7. Blend: Remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth. You can also transfer it to a blender in batches if needed.
8. Return to Heat: Once blended, return the soup to low heat and stir in the heavy cream or coconut milk.
9. Season: Add the chopped mint leaves and season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired. Stir well.
