This is a little easier without any cooking at all and it is served as original: COLD! A little less ingredients but I think is as yummy as the other one.
Ingredients:
3 medium cucumbers
3 cups chicken broth
3 cups sour cream
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1 clove garlic, minced
TOPPINGS:
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
3/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
Directions:
Peel cucumbers; halve lengthwise and remove seeds. Cut into chunks. In a blender, cover and puree cucumbers and broth in small batches. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in the sour cream, vinegar, salt if desired and garlic until well blended. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Stir before serving. Garnish with tomatoes, almonds, onions and parsley.

This can be served hot or cold and it's not using any lemon juice but if you prefer it you're welcome to try it instead using the vinegar. I was making it for my hubby who couldn't chew anything tough with his swollen gum and since he couldn't take any citrus so here is one recipe....
Eat it with crackers or italian bread or croissant
Ingredients:
2 cucumbers
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
2 tablespoons margarine
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
4 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon farina
salt to taste
1/8 tablespoon dried tarragon
1/2 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Directions:
1. Peeled, seeded and chopped the cucumbers
2. Cook the scallion and margarine together until soft. Then throw in the cucumbers and the vinegar. Then pour the broth and the farina (this to make it a little bit thicker) in to the mixture. Then throw in the tarragon (dill if you prefer it) and some salt for seasonings. Simmer for about 20 minutes or so.
3. Pour all the mixture in the blender and puree it. Then pour 'em out in a big bowl or container and whisk in the sour cream. To serve sprinkle it with parsley flakes and decorate it with thin slices of cucumbers.
ENJOY!!!!
