I used to be a cinnamon girl, but the last few months I’m really into cardamom. It doesn’t mean I don’t like cinnamon anymore but I just don’t think about it on daily basis and start to craving more cardamom taste on my food, dessert or even on my drink.
I like to try something new and make an experiment for breakfast. When others are busy thinking about what clothes to wear for tomorrow, I was busy thinking about what should I eat for breakfast. I like to enjoy my breakfast with a warm drink such as coffee, tea, cappuccino or chai tea. Although I’m not really like milk but had too much caffeine, and I decide it had to be milk this week.

Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 8 peeled pistachios, chopped finely

- 1-inch stick cinnamon
- 2 cloves
- A pinch of saffron

Direction
- Soaked saffron in a lukewarm milk for about 15 minutes.

- Strain the milk and discard the spices. Reheat the milk and stir in sugar or honey.
