Actually, 4.5-5 for flavor and ease of prep, but the instructions are pretty poor.

- The recipe calls for 100g/2oz of sugar to sweeten 2 cups of milk. My scale was set for grams, so I weighed out 100g and marveled at the amount of sugar for this amount of milk. Of course, 100g is 3.5oz of sugar, which would have made it almost inedible, I expect. I used the 2oz (56g), and might cut it back a bit further (50g perhaps), since neither of us cares for really sweet tastes.
- The recipe is supposed to serve 4, but 2 cups of milk reduces quite a bit and we had only two servings from this.
- We both thought it would be nice to toast the chopped pistachios a bit next time.

But it was very tasty and easy to make, so I expect it will get made again.
