orgeat syrup
[ OHR-zhat ]
The original version of this sweet syrup was made with a barley-almond blend. Today, however, it's made with almonds, sugar and
ROSE WATER or
ORANGE-FLOWER WATER. Orgeat syrup has a pronounced almond taste and is used to flavor many cocktails including the
MAI TAI and
SCORPION.
