Traditionally it's made for New Years. Basically it's chucks of pumpkin stewed with beef bones, fresh lime and veggies (potato, cabbage, onion, shallots, leek, turnip, carrot, celery, and green pepper). Of course it includes spices as well: a couple cloves of smashed garlic, some vinegar, a scotch bonnet pepper, a little thyme, pepper, salt, cloves... It cooks all afternoon, smells great and tastes fabulous. When I lived in Haiti we had a great soup every sunday that was called Soup Joumou. Traditionally it’s made for New Years.
