Trick of the Trade: Squeeze that fruit and boil that orgeat

Using fresh squeezed juice (orange and lime) brings added life and spunk to this classic tiki cocktail. This extra step makes homemade orgeat (or-zha) the ideal finishing touch to elevate your Mai Tai to new heights. This cocktail is sure to be a hit!

Homemade Orgeat (or-zha) – Combine equal parts almond milk and sugar in a pot on the stovetop and bring it to a boil. Let cool. Then stir in a dash of rose or orange blossom water and almond extract.
