Dinner is in the oven, and I've made us some Kashmiri Kahwa - a saffron-based spice tea that is delicious and utterly relaxing. Don't operate machinery or drive a car after drinking this.

You can purchase it occasionally in the shops, but it is best to make your own.

3 cloves, 4 cardamom pods, 2cm piece cinnamon, 1 pinch strands of saffron - crush them, pour over 2 cups boiling water, seep 5 mins. Sip and enjoy.

You can add - dried rose petals, almonds, walnuts, ginger, green tea, and/or sugar (I prefer it without sugar)

I first had this tea in Goa of all places, but in a shop run by a Kashmiri. He served it whilst I was browsing. It was SO divine that we chatted about it, and I began making it at home.

Nothing like a good #SpicedTea on a cold morning. Ok, not so cold for most standards, but cold enough for the tea to feel awesome.
