orgeat

Pronounced orzh-AH or orzh-AHT, orgeat is a syrup of almonds, orange flower water and sometimes barley water often used in tropical and other cocktails. Now always nonalcoholic, it was once made with a small quantity of brandy. Clear to milky golden in color. Many brands are produced. Note that, with discretion, it can be possible to substitute some commercial almond syrups for orgeat in some mixed drinks.
