You can still make this orgeat in 60 seconds or less with a blender, but if you want to get a clear orgeat it will take a bit of filtering and time. The main difference between this recipe and the one from last year is the amount of almond extract, rose water, and orange blossom water. There is significantly more in this version to replicate the flavors of other well-known and popular orgeats.
A high-quality almond extract is your friend here, and I like the one from Cook's (link below) but I've also used Watkins which is significantly cheaper. Many of the cheap orgeats use too much almond extract and not enough of the rose water and orange blossom water. I tested this out with much smaller increments in a 600 gram batch and kept increasing it until I got the right amount, which is 1/4 tsp per 100 grams of finished syrup

Easy orgeat
2 tbsp Joi Almond Milk Concentrate
200 grams water
400 grams sugar
1 ½ tsp almond extract
1 ½ tsp rose water
1 ½ tsp orange blossom water
If filtering, make more almond milk than needed by 50% or more. This will account for any water/almond milk absorbed in filters or left over if you quit the filtering process
If making your own volume, use 1/4 tsp almond extract, rose water and orange blossom water per 100 ml or finished syrup
