Batch 4 was made tonight. Again 120g almonds and 60g apricot kernels. I increased the water to 350ml and the sugar to 300g. This time I did not heat the almond milk and sugar to the point at which the emulsion broke, so there was no need to homogenize. However I expect the orgeat will separate on sitting. The homogenized orgeat did not.
