Not to be confused with Emergency Orgeat Syrup.

And this also could be an excellent thread.

Thanks for the props. You're right about the thread idea; definitely Bilgeworthy. We might also want to start one called TMI.

Thanks Gnomon...excatly, I know how to use the search feature, and have been on here a few years to read about home made stuff. Apart from Oasis time and other special occasions, I don't make large quantities of drinks.
High hassle factor + short shelf life + no need for large quantity = home made Orgeat not a good option.

NP. My Emergency Orgeat only takes ten minutes and, other than the fact that it has no thickness whatsoever, it tastes better than storebought and is probably easier to come by for a lot of people unless you order online at considerable expense. Still, it pays to have some storebought handy, so it's good to know what's good and what's not.

Hit the swaybar, face the speakers, and blast some screeching feedback! Or I suppose, in your case, you could kick the reverb.
