Mom’s Famous Immune Boosting Wassail

This is my mom’s famous immune boosting wassail that my mom would make every fall season. With immune boosting ingredients, you can feel good about drinking this!

It is no secret that we are getting closer to “Cold and Flu Season”…

  • We eat more sugar which naturally suppresses our immune system
  • Breathing in less fresh air (possibly spreading more germs in closed buildings)

Whatever the reasons are… I’ll just be over here sipping on some immune boosting wassail in my Christmas cup : )

When I posted on Facebook about my mom’s wassail, I got so many questions about what wassail is – which was surprising since I grew up drinking it during the fall and winter months. read more

This is a fast and easy way to have your favorite Cajun flavors in a fast one hour instant pot recipe.
