Saffron cardamom almond milk is a rich and aromatic beverage that is both delicious and nutritious. The milk is infused with the flavors of saffron and cardamom, giving it a unique and exotic taste. Almonds are soaked, blended, and strained to create a creamy and smooth base for the milk. The addition of saffron strands adds a beautiful golden color and a subtle floral flavor. This almond milk can be enjoyed hot or cold and is a great alternative to dairy milk for those who are lactose intolerant or following a plant-based diet.
