Mmmmmmm is for Mom! I think Mom got this from her mother ("Grandma" Leona Puschak), but where she got it I have no clue. I always have these ingredients on hand (especailly in winter), if anyone gets sick...this is the best! And it tastes good too! I make a batch & drink it instead of tea & by the end of the batch...I'm feeling much better.
