This was a nice soup, but my husband and I both felt it was lacking a bit in flavor. I took a small amount of soup and added some sugar, more cinnamon and some allspice -- it was great! It just needs that hint of sweet. The cranberry topper was delicious and really enhanced the soup both before and after the additional seasoning. I will make this again.
