Recipe for saffron drinks
Ingredients
- 4 cups of cold 2% low-fat milk or 4 cups whole milk
- 4 -5 saffron threads
- 1/2 cup sugar
- pistachio nut (chopped, for garnish)
- rose water (optional)
- almonds.
Cooking Directions
Place a few tablespoons of milk in a small bowl and add the saffron threads.
Gently stir with a wooden spoon and set aside. The saffron will infuse the milk and turn it into a golden color.
Pour the remaining milk in a pitcher and stir in sugar until dissolved. Add two drops of rosewater (too much rosewater makes the drink bitter). Lastly, add the saffron-infused milk into the pitcher and stir.
Refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with chopped pistachios before serving.
