This week for Wellness Wednesday, I spoke to Jon Yeager of PourTaste. He offered an amazing recipe for a delicious drink that's good for you! No really, this drink has health benefits! It's all about the Blanche Armagnac. See the recipe below and watch my interview with Jon to see what he had to say about it!
