Anyone have any thoughts on homemade orgeat syrup versus store bought? I've been doing a lot of Mai Tai type drinks lately with all fresh ingredients except for the orgeat. Unsure as to whether spending half an hour making a batch would be worth it considering the short shelf life.

Personally make your own. All store bought Ogeat has some form of additives and preservatives. Back in the tiki heyday it was made by the bar. Gifards tast like almond but it’s an additive. Spice & co orgeat no floral but is decent and expensive. Make your own.

Use real almonds and don’t cut corners in using almond milk. Ferlernum & Fassionola is my focus right now but, I do lots of research on ogeat for when I start making it.
