2–3 TBS honey or light corn syrup

1⁄2 tsp cardamom powder

5–8 saffron strands (optional)

1⁄2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg for garnish

4 TBS chopped pistachio or

cashew nuts for garnish

• Blend all the ingredients together.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour or more to allow saffron (if using) to flavor the mixture.
• Pour into four glass bowls.
• Sprinkle with nutmeg and nuts.
