CRISIS BUMP!

Yesterday I looked at my Tiki History calendar to discover that June 30 is National Mai Tai Day. I'M OUT OF ORGEAT! If only I'd ordered some from BG Reynolds last week when I'd thought of it. Getting any other brand requires driving an hour both ways to a liquor store, time which I don't have between now and Friday. And not only do I not have a lot of time, I'm also super lazy, so Martin's recipe in the Smuggler's Cove book sounds too labor intensive for me at the moment.

After perusing this thread, I'm considering two options: an "emergency" almond milk based recipe, or Kaiser Penguin's Perfect Orgeat. (Another wrinkle: I may not be able to get orange flower or rose water in town, either.)

Anyone have suggestions or recommendations based on recent experimentation?
