Purists will tell you that you need to start with almonds to make orgeat. This recipe is not for them.
Ingredients
4 cups plain unsweetened almond milk
4 cups granulated sugar
3 tbsp (1.5 fl oz) almond extract
3/4 cup brandy or cognac
(UNTESTED) 2 tsp orange flower water - The original recipe calls for this, but I've never bought it to try. I think it would be a nice addition, but 2 tsp might be too much.
Directions
Gently heat the almond milk and sugar in a medium saucepan, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove from heat, add the remaining ingredients and let cool.
Transfer to an airtight bottle or jar and keep refrigerated
