Four ways people actually drink the Sunshine Latte, in case yours has been sitting in the cupboard waiting for an occasion.

Classic. One scoop into warm milk, dairy or plant-based, stirred or frothed. This is the one most people settle on.

Iced, which is the honest answer for a Dubai September, when it is still humid enough at eight in the morning to make a hot drink feel like a bad idea. Dissolve a scoop in a splash of warm water first, then pour over ice and top with cold milk.

In coffee. Half a scoop stirred into your morning cup, if you are not ready to give the coffee up. No judgement here.

After training. A scoop blended into a protein shake.

There is no correct version. The best one is whichever you will still be making in three weeks.

So how do you take yours? Tell us below, we are always collecting new ones.

This is the Sunshine Latte. Our own blend, no caffeine in it, and the simplest thing we make.

One scoop into warm milk, dairy or plant-based, stirred or frothed. That is the method. No measuring threads, no wondering whether you have used too much, no recipe to look up first.

Or iced, which is the honest answer for a Dubai September. Nobody is reaching for a hot drink at eight in the morning when the humidity has already got to them.

What is actually in it: 130mg of saffron's own compounds per serving, crocin, safranal and crocetin. Caffeine-free, plant-based, no fillers and nothing artificial.

It comes from the same place everything else here does, a Dubai saffron family who have been doing this since 2001.

AED 95.

One gram of saffron. Around 150 flowers, picked by hand, before sunrise.

Each crocus gives three red threads, and that is the entire yield of the flower. They are picked early, while the flowers are still closed, because the quality starts slipping once the sun is properly up. The harvest runs about three weeks a year, and it has never been mechanised, because nobody has built a machine that can take three threads out of a flower without ruining them.

That is the whole reason saffron costs what it costs. Not the branding, not the box. Around 150 flowers and a great many people's hands, for one gram.

It is also the kindest explanation we can offer for why a cheap supermarket sachet usually is not what the front of it says. Nobody sets out to buy the wrong thing. The arithmetic simply does not leave room for it to be right.

One pod. Thirty seconds of work. That is the whole ritual.

Plenty of people buy saffron once and never really open it. Not because they did not like it, but because it sat in the cupboard looking like something that needed a recipe and a free afternoon.

The pod exists so that none of that is required.

1. One pod. No measuring, nothing left half used.

2. 200ml of warm milk or water. Warm rather than boiling.

3. Wait. The colour tells you when it is ready, roughly three minutes.

4. Drink it. Mid-morning, or at four, or whenever your gap actually falls.

Four steps, the same four every day. That is the difference between a routine and a jar you keep meaning to get to.

Milk, oat, water, honey or no honey, hot or over ice while it is still warm out. There is no correct version. If you find one you love, come and tell us, we collect them.

Shop the pods.

The 4pm coffee that costs you 9pm.

Most of us know that one. It is the third of the day, it gets bought standing up, and by then it is not really about coffee. It is about wanting five minutes that belong to you.

So, two cups. One is the 4pm coffee. The other is a saffron pod in warm milk, which takes about as long to make and comes to AED 2.97.

We are not going to make you any promises about the second one, because everybody's answer to that is their own. What we can tell you is exactly what is in it: one pod of real Iranian saffron, 200ml of warm milk, three minutes. And that it happens at four o'clock, which is honestly most of the point.

If coffee is already your five minutes, keep it. We are not here to take it off you. This is just another way of having them.

AED 2.97 a day.

That is the 3 Month Supply of saffron powder pods at AED 267, divided across the days it covers. One pod, one cup, ninety days.

We would rather put that number in front of you than dance around it. Saffron is expensive by the gram and always has been, for reasons that come down to how it is picked. But nobody drinks a gram. You drink a pod, and a pod comes to under three dirhams.

Set that next to the flat white on the way home and the price becomes a much easier conversation.

And if three months is more than you want to commit to right now, that is completely fair. Start smaller, start with a tea, or just start when you are ready. The ritual is the point, not the size of the box.

3 Month Supply.

September puts a shape back on the day. There are two gaps in that shape, and they are the only two where five minutes to yourself survives.

The first is the half hour after drop-off. The house is quiet again, or you have just got to your desk, and nothing has started asking for you yet. It is the longest uninterrupted stretch most of us get all day.

The second is the twenty minutes at four. Pick-up has happened, homework has not started, dinner is not on. It is the shorter of the two and it is the first one to get eaten, which is exactly why it is worth defending.

If your September has no school run in it, the same two gaps are there. The half hour before your inbox catches up with you, and the four o'clock dip.

Pick whichever one is genuinely yours, and put the cup in the same place every day. A ritual with a time attached is the one still going in week three.

Where does yours sit? Tell us below. We are always curious how people fit it in.

The full reset is on the blog.

September has a way of filling up before anybody asks you.

Term starts, the diary refills, and the first thing to go is the twenty minutes that were not allocated to anyone. Not because you decided to give them up. They just get absorbed.

Here is the thing about this particular month though. Whatever you start in the first few weeks of term tends to be what you are still doing at Christmas. The shape you fall into now is the one that sticks, which is a good reason to be slightly deliberate about it rather than letting September decide on your behalf.

So, a small suggestion. Pick five minutes and put something in them. Not an hour, not a routine you have to keep up. Five minutes, at the same time each day, that belong to you before they belong to everything else.

Ours involves a warm cup, which you would expect us to say. But the cup is not really the point. The time is.

We have written the whole thing up, where those five minutes actually fit in a term-time day and how to hold on to them once the month gets busy.

It is on the blog.
