The only thing I would add to the above suggestions is to make sure that you're not adding too much orgeat and syrup. You need 1/4 oz of each, no more, no less. Use the teaspoon measurements given in the Grog Log. Do not use bartender shot glasses marked off in 1/2-oz. increments that you bought at the supermarket (I speak from experience here...:))

If you use the right amounts of orgeat and syrup, along with the juice of a whole lime, it should be plenty tart enough for you.
