Scots Noyau

Proof-spirit, water, syrup, almonds (sweet and bitter). Two quarts of proof-spirit, a pint and a half of water, a pound and a half of syrup, six ounces of sweet and four bitter almonds blanched and chopped. Infuse for a fortnight, shaking the compound occasionally, and filter. Lemon juice or grate may be added, but the nutty or almond flavour does not harmonize well with acid or citron flavours.
