Our family really likes this Butternut Squash Apple Soup

I love this one - it's more brothy than creamy, but I love the flavor the Jasmine tea brings:

4 oz butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed
3 cups chicken stock
1 bag of jasmine green tea
1/2 cup boiling water
salt
pepper
1 tsp veggie oil
2 green onions, green part only, thinly sliced

1) In large pot, cover the squash with the stock and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderate heat until the squash until tender, about 35 minutes.
2) In a cup, steep the tea in the boiling water for 5 minutes.
3) Puree the soup in a blender and return it to the pot.
4) Add the tea and bring to a simmer.
5) Season the soup with salt and pepper.
6) In a small skillet, heat the veggie oil. Add the green onions and cook over high 30 seconds.
7) Season with salt.
8) Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with green onions.
