Almond-inspired (hence the orgeat) with hints of apple and lemon juice. For a more full-on almond-flavoured alternative perhaps try my own Almond Martini.

Chris Dimal
Strange one, this. Felt more like an apple-tini than anything else. I didn't get much of the orgeat I just made, so was quite disappointed.
