Alright. You guys have sucked me into this madness now.

I have declared a state of emergency for tonight and will try to make the requisite emergency orgeat.

However, I wanted to see if you could provide some more details to make your recipe more fool-proof (and I will be the fool to prove it).

OK, now here is where I start sounding like you two:

In the "First Minute" of the recipe, the ratio of almond milk to sugar is not clear to me - you seem to be using a small blender with a container that is not wider at the top or bottom, while I only have a traditional blender that is much wider at the top than the bottom, so I think it will take a lot more sugar than I need to fill it so the liquid is close to the top.

Do you have a sense of the ratio I should use (like 1 cup sugar for every X ounces of almond milk)? Even a guess would be good because your guess would be MUCH better than my guess.

and remember, this is an emergency.
