Outstanding!! I've made this twice now, and was able to find Orange Blossom Water for the second batch. YUM- First time I served it over romaine lettuce and last night was in a bowl by itself. I'm actually thinking of throwing some cooked cranberries in it instead of the usual Thanksgiving side dish! I may play around with steeping cinnamon sticks, rather than using powder. Thank you for the perfect combination of sweet, tart, creamy and crunch!
