In a pinch, hit up your local Starbucks - they sell their flavored syrups pretty cheap. Although it is waaaay too sweet, the almond one will do. In a pinch. A REALLY BIG pinch. (If'n you go this route, leave out the rock candy...)

I've also had pretty good results from using Amaretto in place of the orgeat (yes, I know Amaretto isn't really almond at all, but I don't want to get into that right now...)
