| 250 | g | Almonds; (8oz) |
| 625 | g | Caster sugar; (1 1/4lb) |
| 1 | l | Water; (1 3/4 pints) |
| 2 | dr | Pure almond essence; (2 to 3) |
INSTRUCTIONS
Drop the almonds into boiling water, simmer for 2 minutes, strain and when cool, skin them. Grind them, preferably in a coffee grinder, to produce a fine powder. Dissolve the sugar in the water and boil for 2 minutes. Add the almonds, stir and boil for 8 more minutes until the mixture looks thickened. Add the almond essence and let it cool completely. Strain through a fine strainer, or one lined with muslin, squeezing and pressing it down, in order to extract all the juices. Store in clean bottles, seal and keep in a cool place. It will last for months. To serve, pour about 2.5cm (1 inch) into each glass, dilute with cold water and add an ice cube. Converted by MC_Buster. Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
