Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Almonds
- 2 cups Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 10 strands Saffron Strands
- 0.5 teaspoons Cardamom Powder
- 2 tablespoons Low Carb Sweetener (Erythritol or Stevia)
- 0.5 teaspoons Rose Water
- 0.5 cups Water
Instructions
Soak the almonds in half a cup of water overnight or for at least 6 hours until softened.
Drain the soaked almonds and peel off their skins. The skins should come off easily after soaking.
Blend the peeled almonds with a quarter cup of almond milk to make a smooth paste. Add more almond milk if the mixture is too thick to blend.
In a medium-sized saucepan, add the remaining almond milk and almond paste. Stir well to combine.
Add saffron strands to the mixture and heat it over medium heat. Allow it to come to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally.
Mix in the cardamom powder and low carb sweetener to the saucepan and continue to heat for another 2 minutes, ensuring everything is well incorporated.
Once heated through, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the rose water for an added aromatic touch.
Pour the badam milk into serving glasses. You may strain it through a fine mesh sieve if you prefer a smoother texture.
Serve warm or chilled, garnished with extra saffron strands or a few chopped almonds if desired.
