    Saffron rock candy being stirred into a mug of tea.

    I came across a really cool product a while back, and I finally got a chance to use it - it's Persian rock candy that's infused with saffron. It was a delicious addition to my evening tea.

    I enjoyed the tea in a vintage coffee mug that I picked up from the Ben & Jerry's factory in Burlington, VT this summer.
