I was just wondering what I could use as a substitute if I can't find Green Tea Liquer. (I live on an island in SPain, no hope of finding that here!)

this recipe looks incredible! if you don't mind, im going to be using it to make for a food competition at my school, but i have a question. for the almonds, is that a cup of the almonds after they are ground? or do i take a cup of blanched almonds, and then grind that and put whatever measure is left over into the mix?

thanks so much, and i can't wait to make this delicious cake! =]

I've been wanting to make this cake for a while. I've learn how to properly beat egg whites, but should I buy ground almonds or grind them myself by blanching, toasting and grinding them? Maybe they will be too coarse and will stop the cake from rising.
