The only ingredients are Organic Almondmilk (Spring Water, Organic Almonds), Organic Acacia Gum and Sea Salt. I have always added a tiny amount of salt to my orgeat anyway and the acacia gum is to make sure it actually comes back together when you shake it. I simply brought it to a simmer and whisked in an equal amount of granulated sugar until it dissolved, turned off the heat and added the rose water and orange flower water. Once it cooled I bottled it and it's delicious. I do a similar maneuver with Pacific brand almond milk, which is made from roasted almonds so you get that nice flavor sort of like the toasted orgeat.
