To make this, you will need:
2 cups/400 g sugar
1 cup/240 ml Greek honey
3 cups/840 ml water
1 cinnamon stick
1 strip of orange peel
6-8 Greek krokos saffron threads
Halva
1 cup/240 ml extra-virgin Greek olive oil
2 cups/350 g coarse semolina flour
1 cup lightly toasted unsalted pistachios
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon plus more for sprinkling as garnish
