I'll pick up a bottle of Wray & Nephew at the local store today (if they have it). Almond Extract seems to be hell to find here in Germany, though. Went to 3-4 supermarkets last night and couldn't find anything. I also bought Allspice because of the KP recipe... so maybe I'll go crazy and add that to Clarke's recipe. Couple of related questions... I suppose there's nothing wrong with using the lime juice from a zested lime, right? Should I juice it first and THEN zest, or would you recommend zesting first? Also, I hear lime juice might go bad. Should I follow KP's advice and add it when I actually make the cocktails using Falernum? Skip it completely? Or just stick it in and hope it survives?
