Supposedly:

Fog Cutter

1/2 oz Gin
1/2 oz Brandy
1 oz Orange juice
3 tblsp Lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp Orgeat syrup
Shake all ingredients and strain into a collins glass over ice cubes. Top with a teaspoon of sweet sherry and serve.

um...... not sure....

I wanted to know, too!!

Orgeat syrup

Orgeat syrup is a sweet syrup made from almonds, sugar and rose water/orange-flower water. It was, however, originally made with a barley-almond blend. It has a pronounced almond taste and is used to flavor many cocktails.

Orgeat syrup can be hard to find, but can be found in some stores that sell coffee syrups/flavorings. If you cannot find it, almond syrup is a good substitute for orgeat syrup.
