+ FOREWORD
+
+
+TO THE HOSTESS OF TO-DAY:
+
+The hostess of to-day will be called upon to serve drinks in her home
+more than formerly, I imagine, and it were well to go back to the
+habits and customs of our grandmothers and be prepared to serve a
+refreshing drink in an attractive manner at a moment’s notice.
+
+To do this, one needs have a stock of syrups, either home-made or
+commercial, as well as a supply of shrubs and vinegars on hand.
+
+To-day’s hostess does not hold up her hands in horror crying that she
+knows nothing of preparing these things, for she has learned a great
+deal about canning and preserving in the last few years, so making
+syrups, vinegars and shrubs will seem like child’s play. If, however,
+she is inclined to think it an arduous task, let her turn to these
+recipes, and she will be convinced that the labor and the time expended
+bring their own reward in the satisfaction gained by knowing that one
+has served a delicious drink delightfully made.
+
+There may be the feeling, if my hostess lives in an apartment, that
+there is not room enough to store these syrups and vinegars, and while
+that may be true in part, it is always possible to keep two or three
+popular syrups in quart bottles, and at least one bottle of fruit
+vinegar, in the refrigerator.
+
+As both syrups and vinegars may be made in small quantities, one may
+make them oftener and make enough to last a week or two.
+
+There are one or two things I would impress upon the hostess who would
+be popular, and if I refer to these things again in the book, I trust
+I may be pardoned, for they are most imperative.
+
+First: the necessity for selecting attractive glassware, which need not
+be expensive, but should be thin and clear, and, when in use, should
+always be polished.
+
+When purchasing linen, select it because of its daintiness rather than
+for its elaborateness. Plate doylies and serviettes which are plain
+and fine may be purchased for a very little money if care is taken.
+Who would not rather use a doylie with a button-holed edge, spotlessly
+clean, than one heavily embroidered which will require three times the
+labor to launder?
+
+If drinks are served by the maid, it is as essential that her cuffs,
+collar, cap and apron be as spotless as the doylies on the service
+plates.
+
+When cold drinks are served, be sure that the glasses are chilled.
+
+For hot drinks, heat the cups or glasses before pouring the drinks.
+
+Place the glass or cup on a doylie on a small plate.
+
+When serving an invalid, be over-particular; the glass must shine, the
+doylie be spotless, and the plate the most attractive obtainable. If it
+is possible lay a flower on the plate or tray before it is sent into
+the ill one’s room.
+
+The appetite of a very finicky person may be tempted by this
+over-carefulness.

+ MEASURES
+
+
+[Illustration: MEASURING SPOONS]
+
+I wish to emphasize the absolute necessity for accurate measuring;
+to be a successful mixer of drinks, one must measure as carefully as
+one should when cooking. I use the measures I have in my kitchen, and
+have used them in making these recipes. Surely one has a quart cup, a
+half pint, or one cup, measure and a set of spoons; the tablespoon,
+dessertspoon, teaspoon and half teaspoon. Some sets have the
+quarter-teaspoon too. These sets, made of aluminum, may be purchased
+in any hardware store, or in the housekeeping department in the large
+shops at very reasonable prices. The glass cup is marked for quarter,
+half and three-quarters on one side, while on the reverse the marking
+is for one-third and two-thirds. The quart cup is marked for quarter,
+half and three-quarters; each quarter being equal to one cupful.
+
+[Illustration: GLASS MEASURING CUPS]
+
+[Illustration: QUART MEASURE]
+
+The housekeeper who becomes accustomed to using _exact_ measurements
+will never return to the hit-or-miss plan, because she will be sure
+that every time she mixes a drink or makes a syrup or a cream that it
+will be just as she wishes it to be.
+

+
+
+
+
+ WHAT TO DRINK
+
+
+ I—FRUITADES, ICED, FRAPPÉ AND HOT
+
+
+There are a number of things worth considering when serving drinks
+at home; first among these is the use of attractive glassware. Good
+looking glasses cost no more than ugly ones, and clear fine glass
+polishes better than heavy blurred glass. And surely any drink is more
+pleasing to the palate if the eye is pleased. Be sure that the glasses
+shine, and also ascertain that glasses meant to hold cold drinks are
+chilled. Almost all fruitades, no matter what the name or foundation,
+contain lemon juice, so it is also well to remember that lemons
+intended for squeezing should be peeled, and that very carefully. While
+the lemon peel, or the zest, rather, is an excellent flavor, it is
+not satisfactory in lemonade, as there is a little bitterness when it
+stands, which displeases some people.
+
+Most of the recipes given for these fruitades are for individual
+drinks, to make it easier for the hostess to ascertain how much to
+prepare if she knows the number of people to be served.
+
+A cocktail shaker, an ice shaver and a long handled spoon are almost
+a necessity in making drinks. They are at least a great aid, and as
+none of these things is expensive and all may be obtained in the
+housekeeping department of any city shop, or in the hardware store in
+small towns, there seems no reason for not owning them.
+
+Fruitades are delicious, refreshing and healthful, and surely not
+difficult to make, so that the gracious hostess will serve these
+cooling drinks often.
+
+If syrups are made and bottled one need not worry about serving a
+delectable drink in a surprisingly short time.
+
+
+BASEBALL LEMONADE
+
+For an individual drink, use:
+
+ 1 egg,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 spoonful of sugar,
+ ¾ cupful of milk,
+ ½ cupful of water.
+
+Put the egg in the bottom of the tall glass; add the juice of a lemon,
+a spoonful of sugar, a little ice, shaved fine, and the milk and water.
+Put into a shaker, shake well and serve.
+
+
+EGG LEMONADE
+
+ ½ cupful of finely shaved ice,
+ 1 egg,
+ 3 teaspoonfuls of powdered sugar,
+ ¾ cupful of water,
+ Juice of one lemon,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+Use either a large glass and a shaker-top, or a cocktail shaker. Place
+all the ingredients in the shaker except the carbonated water, shake
+well, pour into an attractive glass, add the carbonated water, and
+serve.
+
+
+FRUIT LEMONADE
+
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 slice of orange,
+ 1 cherry,
+ 1 slice of pineapple,
+ 1 Malaga grape,
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ Shaved ice,
+ Water.
+
+Put the juice of the lemon, sugar, shaved or cracked ice, and water
+enough to make a glass full in a shaker, shake well, pour into a tall
+glass, and add the fruit and serve at once.
+
+
+GRAPE JUICE LEMONADE
+
+ 3 lemons,
+ 1 pint of grape juice,
+ 1½ pints of water,
+ 1 cupful of sugar.
+
+Place a small square of ice in a tall glass pitcher; mix the lemon
+juice, sugar, water and grape juice together, pour into the pitcher;
+allow to become thoroughly chilled and serve.
+
+
+GINGER ALE LEMONADE
+
+ 3 lemons,
+ 1 pint of ginger ale,
+ 1½ pints of water,
+ 1 cupful of sugar.
+
+Place a goodly sized piece of ice in a glass pitcher and pour over
+it the juice of the lemons, sugar and water, which should have been
+thoroughly mixed. Stir and when the sugar is dissolved, add the ginger
+ale. This should be served without delay, while the “fizz” is still in
+the ginger ale.
+
+It is not at all necessary to use imported ginger ales, as there are
+domestic makes which are equally as good.
+
+
+GRAPEFRUIT AND ORANGEADE
+
+ 1 grapefruit,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 pint of ginger ale,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ 1 pint of crushed ice,
+ 1 full spray of mint.
+
+Cut the grapefruit in half and extract the juice by using a large glass
+orange juice extractor. Extract the orange juice, add sugar and allow
+to stand for an hour if possible, stirring occasionally. When ready to
+serve, add crushed ice, water and ginger ale, stir and add the spray of
+mint well crushed. Serve while it still has a sparkle.
+
+
+MINT GINGER ALE
+
+ 1 pint of ginger ale,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 2 sprays of mint.
+
+For this refreshing drink, crush the mint and put into a tall glass
+pitcher, add the crushed ice, the juice of half a lemon and the thinly
+sliced second half. Add the ginger ale, stir with a long handled spoon
+and serve at once.
+
+
+ORANGE GRAPEADE
+
+ 1 orange,
+ ½ pint of chipped or shaved ice,
+ ½ pint of grape juice,
+ Sugar.
+
+Extract the juice from the orange and add to the grape juice, stir and
+add the shaved ice. If not sweet enough add sugar to taste.
+
+
+LIMEADE
+
+ 2 fresh limes,
+ 1½ teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ Spring or carbonated water,
+ Mint,
+ Ice.
+
+Extract the juice from the limes, put into a tall straight-sided glass
+and add sugar or plain syrup. If sugar is used, stir until the sugar is
+dissolved. Add water to fill the glass and stir, or carbonated water,
+and put a spray of mint into each service. Serve with a straw.
+
+
+LIMEADE WITH LIME SYRUP
+
+ ½ lemon,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lime syrup,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of plain syrup,
+ Carbonated water or spring water,
+ Ice.
+
+Extract the juice from the half lemon, put into a tall glass, add lime
+syrup and plain syrup and stir, then add the carbonated water, or
+spring water, if desired. Mint or a cherry may be added as liked.
+
+
+TEA-RHUBARBADE
+
+ 6 stalks of young rhubarb,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1 pint of tea,
+ Sugar.
+
+Wash the rhubarb and cut into inch lengths, add a quart of water and
+stew until tender; drain, and set the juice away to cool. (The pulp
+may be used for tarts or marmalade.) Add a pint of tea to the strained
+rhubarb; extract the lemon juice and add this and the oranges thinly
+sliced. Sweeten to taste and pour over shaved ice in tall thin glasses.
+
+
+CRÉOLE “FROG” LEMONADE
+
+ 2 dozen lemons,
+ 1 pound of sugar,
+ 2 quarts of water,
+ 2 quarts of Seltzer,
+ 1 pineapple,
+ 3 dozen strawberries.
+
+Use a large punch bowl; put the sugar, lemon juice and water in it, and
+stir well until the sugar is dissolved; add the juice of one pineapple
+and the Seltzer water. Mix well again and add the strawberries, slices
+of pineapple and very thin slices of lemon. Place a large piece of ice
+in the center of the bowl, and allow to stand until very cold before
+serving.
+
+
+CANTON LEMONADE
+
+ ½ cupful of lemon juice,
+ 1¼ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ ½ teaspoonful of ground ginger.
+
+Mix the sugar, ginger and water and boil until slightly syrup-like,
+then add the lemon juice. Cool and dilute as desired, or bottle hot for
+use when needed. Use two tablespoonfuls to a small glass of iced water
+when ready to serve.
+
+
+ORANGE-LEMONADE
+
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 3 oranges,
+ 1 cupful of white grape juice,
+ Sugar.
+
+Wash the oranges, and rub a cube of sugar over the skin of one orange;
+cut the oranges and extract the juice, adding just enough sugar to
+make slightly sweet. To this add the juice of one lemon, stir, add the
+water, then the grape juice and serve at once.
+
+
+PLAIN LEMONADE
+
+ ½ cupful of lemon juice,
+ 1¼ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 pint of water.
+
+Boil the water and sugar together until syrup-like; take from the fire
+and add the lemon juice. Cool and dilute as desired, the strength
+depending upon the taste of those to be served. To dilute one may use
+cracked ice, iced water, or Apollinaris, or a mixture of water and
+Apollinaris.
+
+
+APOLLINARIS LEMONADE
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice,
+ ¾ teaspoonful of sugar,
+ Apollinaris,
+ Cracked ice.
+
+Put the lemon juice, sugar, cracked ice and Apollinaris in a shaker,
+shake for a minute, pour into a tall, thin glass and serve at once.
+
+
+WHITE GRAPE JUICE LEMONADE
+
+ 1 pint of water,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 cupful of white grape juice,
+ Sugar,
+ Shaved ice.
+
+Usually the white grape juice is sweet enough to serve with the lemon
+juice without using sugar, depending always upon the person to be
+served. Cut a lemon in two, extract the juice from half, and slice the
+other half very thin. Mix the lemon juice with the sugar, if any is
+to be used, first trying a teaspoonful, add the water, stir until the
+sugar is dissolved, add the grape juice and then the thinly sliced half
+lemon, stir and serve.
+
+
+ORGEAT LEMONADE
+
+ 1 tablespoonful of powdered sugar,
+ 1 tablespoonful of orgeat syrup (see syrups)
+ ½ lemon,
+ Ice,
+ Berries.
+
+Fill the shaker about one-third full of shaved ice, pour over it the
+syrup and the lemon juice; fill to three-quarters full with water;
+shake, add any berries in season; pour into a thin tall glass and serve
+at once.
+
+
+RASPBERRY LEMONADE
+
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 pint of raspberries,
+ ½ cupful of sugar,
+ Ice.
+
+Select a half cupful of nice firm berries, and put aside, then crush
+the remaining berries, and press through a fine cloth. Extract the
+juice from the lemon, add to the berry juice, add shaved ice, sugar and
+water and shake well. Pour into a glass pitcher and add the selected
+whole berries and serve.
+
+
+ITALIAN LEMONADE
+
+ ½ lemon,
+ ½ orange,
+ 1 teaspoonful of powdered sugar,
+ 1 cupful of ice,
+ 1 tablespoonful of white grape juice,
+ Fruits in season,
+ 1 spoonful of ice cream.
+
+Put the juice of half a lemon and half an orange into a shaker with
+the sugar and cracked ice and shake until the ice is well melted. Pour
+into a tall thin glass, fill with iced water, stir, add small fruits in
+season, and top with a teaspoonful of ice cream.
+
+
+SODA LEMONADE
+
+ ½ lemon,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ ½ cupful of cracked ice,
+ Plain soda.
+
+Put the juice of half a lemon and the sugar into a tall glass with the
+ice, stir with a long handled spoon, using the left hand; pour in the
+soda with the right. Serve at once.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY LEMONADE
+
+ ½ lemon,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ 1 dozen large strawberries,
+ ½ cupful of shaved ice,
+ Milk.
+
+Fill a shaker about a third full of ice; (about a half cupful) add
+the juice of a half lemon, the juice from a dozen strawberries, and
+the sugar. Shake well, add enough milk to nearly fill the shaker, and
+strain into a tall glass.
+
+
+ FRUITADES AND SODAS FROM JUICES OF CANNED FRUITS
+
+So often when a can of strawberries is opened, we find there is an
+abundance of juice, more in fact than we care to use with the berries
+on the table, and if the desired amount, _only_, is left with the
+fruit for table consumption, and the rest reserved, many combinations
+which are tasty and desirable may be made without the extra expense of
+purchasing fruits or prepared syrups.
+
+Strawberries are not the only berries from which the juice may be
+taken, for blackberries and raspberries, both red and black, are
+equally desirable. Besides these berries, there is no good reason why
+the juice from plums, pineapples, cherries and peaches may not be used
+to as good advantage.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY SODA
+
+ Carbonated water,
+ Cream,
+ Strawberry juice or syrup.
+
+We are more likely to have iced tea glasses in our homes than the
+regulation soda glasses, and for that reason I advise using them in
+preparing a home-made soda.
+
+Pour enough strawberry juice into a glass to fill it one-third full,
+add three tablespoonfuls of thick cream, and fill with carbonated water.
+
+
+BLACKBERRYADE
+
+ ¼ glass of blackberry juice,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice,
+ 1 teaspoonful of powdered sugar,
+ Cracked ice,
+ Water.
+
+Put the one-fourth glassful (iced tea glass) of blackberry juice, the
+lemon juice, sugar and cracked ice into a cocktail shaker and shake
+well for a minute or two. Pour into the glass and add enough water to
+fill the glass seven-eighths full; stir well and serve at once.
+
+
+RASPBERRYADE
+
+ ¼ glass of raspberry juice,
+ ½ teaspoonful of lemon juice,
+ 1 teaspoonful of powdered sugar,
+ Cracked ice,
+ Water.
+
+Pour the raspberry juice, lemon juice, sugar and cracked ice into a
+shaker—using an iced tea glass as a measuring medium—and shake well;
+pour into the iced tea glass and fill with water. Stir and serve.
+
+
+LEMON FROTH
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ Lemon syrup (see lemonade),
+ ¾ cupful of water,
+ 1 candied cherry.
+
+To three-quarters of a cup of water add one-third cupful of finely
+cracked ice and lemon syrup enough to please the taste of the person to
+be served: shake well for two minutes, strain into a tall thin glass—an
+iced tea glass is a desirable type—and stir in the stiffly beaten white
+of an egg. Top with a thin slice of lemon and a candied cherry.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY-LEMON FROTH
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ ½ lemon,
+ ¾ cupful of water,
+ Cracked ice,
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ ½ dozen strawberries.
+
+Reserve the largest berry and crush the others; press through a fine
+sieve. Extract the juice from half a lemon, add to the strawberry juice
+and stir in the sugar. Continue to stir until the sugar is dissolved.
+Pour this into a cocktail shaker, adding the finely cracked ice and
+water. Shake hard for two minutes, strain into a tall glass, stir in
+the stiffly beaten white of an egg and top with the selected strawberry.
+
+
+HOT LEMONADE
+
+ ½ lemon,
+ 3 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ 1¼ cupfuls of boiling water.
+
+Extract the juice from the half lemon, add the sugar and then the hot
+water. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and serve.
+
+
+HOT SPICED LEMONADE
+
+ ½ lemon,
+ 3 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ 1¼ cupfuls of boiling water,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of ground ginger.
+
+Extract the juice from the half lemon, add the sugar and ginger; strain
+and add the boiling water. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and serve.
+
+
+ FRAPPÉS
+
+Any one of the fruitades may be made into a frappé with so little
+trouble that in hot weather there is no reason why the hostess should
+not serve these cooling, delectable drinks at a moment’s notice. There
+are always syrups which may be kept in the refrigerator and mixed with
+lemon syrup, a little water or carbonated water added, poured over the
+shaved ice in a sherbet glass, and presto! the frappé is ready to serve.
+
+It is also possible to freeze the frappé, and it is advisable if one
+is to serve a goodly number. Remember always that a frappé is only
+partially frozen. As the liquid begins to thicken, scrape it from the
+sides of the freezer, using a long knife, preferably a spatula. It
+would seem impossible to keep house without a spatula, because of the
+many uses to which it may be put.
+
+
+LEMON-RASPBERRY FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon syrup (see lemonade),
+ 1 tablespoonful of raspberry juice.
+
+This is only enough for one service. Fill a sherbet glass
+three-quarters full of finely shaved ice and pour over it the lemon
+syrup and raspberry juice. Serve at once. This may be served at the
+beginning of a meal in hot weather, or served at any time when any
+cooling drink is wanted.
+
+
+BLACKBERRY FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of blackberry juice,
+ Sugar.
+
+Fill the sherbet glasses three-quarters full of shaved ice, and pour
+the blackberry juice over after having been mixed with sugar enough
+to take away the decided acid taste. It is not wise to make any drink
+which is meant to be cooling, too sweet.
+
+
+WHITE GRAPE JUICE FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of lemon syrup,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of white grape juice.
+
+Fill the glass,—a sherbet or tall champagne glass—with finely shaved
+ice, and pour over it the grape juice and lemon syrup (see lemonade).
+Serve at once.
+
+
+TEA FRAPPÉ
+
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of tea,
+ 1½ pints of boiling water,
+ 4 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice.
+
+Use a large teapot, rinsing it out with boiling water, then place the
+tea in the pot and pour a pint and a half of boiling water over. Allow
+to stand for five minutes, and strain off. Cool, add the sugar and the
+lemon juice and freeze to a mush. Serve in sherbet glasses with a mint
+leaf, if mint is in season.
+
+
+PINEAPPLE FRAPPÉ
+
+ 1 pineapple,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 quart of water.
+
+Peel the pineapple, remove the “eyes,” and holding the pines in the
+left hand slash both ways,—up and down, as well as across,—then cut
+away from the stalk-like center. One may crush more thoroughly by
+putting through a food chopper, or by using a large wooden spoon.
+Extract as much juice as possible, and add to the sugar and lemon
+juice. Stir, add the water, which should be boiling. Allow to cool,
+freeze until a mush, and serve. Remember always that a frappé is
+_right_ when it is just at the pouring stage, and not frozen a bit
+harder.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY FRAPPÉ
+
+ 1 quart of strawberries,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1½ cupfuls of sugar.
+
+Crush the strawberries, press through a fine sieve, add the sugar and
+lemon juice; add the water, which should be boiling. Set aside to cool;
+pour into the freezer and freeze, until a soft pourable mush. Serve in
+tall champagne glasses and top with a selected strawberry.
+
+
+COFFEE FRAPPÉ
+
+ Whipped cream,
+ 2 level tablespoonfuls of powdered coffee,
+ 1 cupful of boiling water,
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ Shaved ice.
+
+Powder the coffee, put in the bag of a drip pot and pour the cupful of
+boiling water over it. Allow this to drip, add the sugar and stir until
+dissolved. Put into the refrigerator and when ready to serve, pour two
+tablespoonfuls over the shaved ice in the sherbet glass. The glass
+should be about three-quarters full, which allows space for the coffee.
+Top with a generous spoonful of whipped cream.
+
+
+ EASILY MADE FRAPPÉS
+
+It may not be known to all housekeepers that fruit syrups may be
+purchased at very reasonable prices from the better grocers, but it is
+true, and with these syrups and shaved ice a frappé may be made in a
+minute.
+
+
+RASPBERRY FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ Raspberry syrup.
+
+Fill the sherbet glasses about three-quarters full with finely shaved
+ice, and pour over it two tablespoonfuls of raspberry syrup. Serve at
+once.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ Strawberry syrup.
+
+If one owns a supply of attractive glasses, one can always make drinks
+_look_ differently at least, and one’s appetite is always grateful for
+a change, even a change in the type of glasses used.
+
+I would suggest if one has tall thin glasses of the type of parfait
+glasses, using them for a change.
+
+Fill until about a quarter way from the top with shaved ice, and pour
+over four tablespoonfuls of strawberry syrup. Serve immediately.
+
+
+GRENADINE FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ Grenadine,
+ ½ teaspoonful of lemon juice.
+
+Use a long stemmed, tall glass, filling it three-quarters full with
+shaved ice. Over this pour four tablespoonfuls of grenadine in which
+the lemon juice has been mixed.
+
+
+MOCK CHAMPAGNE FRAPPÉ
+
+ 1 quart of sweet cider,
+ 1 pint of carbonated water.
+
+Pour into a freezer and freeze until about half frozen, or until a
+mush. Serve in champagne glasses.
+
+
+ ECONOMICAL FRAPPÉS
+
+There are many times when a small amount of juice from either canned or
+preserved fruits is left from the table serving, although all the fruit
+may have been used, and there is no reason why this juice should not be
+used to good advantage in frappés. One should remember always that the
+syrup from preserved fruits is much heavier, and in consequence would
+be somewhat too sweet to use as it came from the fruit unless a little
+acid were added to it. So, when using the syrup of preserves add lemon
+juice and the frappé will be much more acceptable and refreshing.
+
+
+PEACH FRAPPÉ
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of syrup from preserved peaches.
+
+Use a sherbet glass and fill three-quarters full with shaved ice; pour
+over this the syrup from the peaches which should have been mixed with
+the lemon juice. Serve as soon as prepared.
+
+
+CHERRY FRAPPÉ
+
+If the cherries have been canned with a thin syrup it may be used just
+as it is taken from the fruit. It will need neither sugar nor lemon
+juice.
+
+ Shaved ice,
+ 3 tablespoonfuls of cherry juice.
+
+Fill the sherbet glass three-quarters full of ice and pour over the
+juice or light syrup from the canned cherries. Serve immediately.
+
+
+
+
+ II—FRUIT PUNCHES, FRUIT CUPS AND FRUIT BOWLS
+
+
+The art of mixing a satisfying punch is not at all as mystifying as it
+is often thought to be. To mix enough for a number of guests one should
+own a punch bowl, and while one may spend almost any amount of money
+on such a thing, there are very inexpensive pressed glass bowls to be
+purchased. It is always advisable to select the very plainest style one
+can find. One of the better pressed glass bowls is in the desirable
+colonial pattern and will be found to be most satisfactory.
+
+
+APPLEBLOOM PUNCH
+
+ 1 pint of sweet cider,
+ 1 pint of Apollinaris,
+ 1 pint of white grape juice,
+ Ice.
+
+Place a square of ice in the punch bowl and pour the sweet cider and
+white grape juice over it, allow this to become very cold, and last
+pour the Apollinaris over. Serve in low punch glasses.
+
+
+BRISTOL PUNCH
+
+ 1 quart of boiling water,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of tea,
+ 6 sprays of fresh mint,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 2 lemons,
+ 1 quart of sparkling apple juice (commercial).
+
+Crush the mint, add the tea and pour the boiling water over, allowing
+it to stand for five minutes. Strain and cool, add the sugar and the
+lemons, which should have been washed and sliced very thin. Add two
+cupfuls of cracked ice to this and allow it to chill. When ready to
+serve place a square of ice in the punch bowl and strain the liquid
+over; add a cupful of red raspberries and a quart of commercial cider
+of the sparkling type. This is readily obtainable at a first class
+grocer’s.
+
+Serve in tall glasses.
+
+
+DÉBUTANTE PUNCH
+
+ 3 lemons,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 6 sprays of mint,
+ 1 quart of grape juice,
+ 1 pint of carbonated water,
+ ½ pint of tea (green),
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 pint of water.
+
+To a half teaspoonful of green tea use a half pint of boiling water;
+allow to infuse for five or six minutes, strain and cool. Extract the
+juice from the lemons, add the sugar and water and mix with the cooled
+tea. Prepare a punch bowl by placing a piece of ice in the center; pour
+the tea and lemon mixture over and add two oranges peeled and cut into
+halves and slices, then the mint, crushing the leaves before using.
+Allow this to stand for a few minutes and pour in the grape juice, and
+last, the carbonated water. The punch should be served as soon as ready.
+
+
+CIDER PUNCH
+
+ 2 quarts of sweet cider,
+ ½ pint of loganberry juice,
+ 3 lemons,
+ 3 oranges,
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar,
+ 3 pints of carbonated water.
+
+As loganberry juice is tart more sugar is seemingly needed than when
+grape juice is used, but it is far better to err on the other side and
+serve a punch too tart rather than too sweet. It is always wise to
+taste any drink one is preparing.
+
+Peel the lemons and extract the juice, extract the juice from two of
+the oranges and mix with the Loganberry juice and sugar and pour into
+the punch bowl, in which a large piece of ice should have been placed.
+Slice the third orange very thin and place in the bowl. Pour the
+carbonated water over all and the punch is ready to serve.
+
+
+GINGER ALE PUNCH
+
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1½ cupfuls of tea,
+ 1 cupful of orange juice,
+ 1 pint of ginger ale,
+ 1 pint of Apollinaris,
+ ¼ cupful of lemon juice,
+ Ice.
+
+Pour one cupful and a half of boiling water over a level teaspoonful
+of tea and allow to infuse for five minutes; strain and pour over the
+sugar, stir and allow to cool. When cool add the fruit juices; place
+a small block of ice in the punch bowl and pour the liquid over. Just
+before serving add the ginger ale and the Apollinaris and float several
+thin slices of orange.
+
+
+GRENADINE PUNCH
+
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1 quart of carbonated water,
+ ½ cupful of grenadine,
+ 4 lemons,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 12 large strawberries,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ Ice.
+
+Extract the juice from both the lemons and oranges and mix with the
+sugar; allow this to stand on the ice until ready to serve, then mix
+with the water. Place a square of ice in the punch bowl and pour the
+mixture over it; stir in the grenadine and add the strawberries, and
+last add the carbonated water. Serve immediately.
+
+
+LOGANBERRY PUNCH
+
+ 1 pint of loganberry juice,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 4 lemons,
+ 1½ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 pint of Apollinaris.
+
+Extract the juice from the lemons and add to the loganberry juice and
+sugar, stirring well; add the water and pour over a square of ice in
+the punch bowl. When ready to serve pour in the Apollinaris, and serve
+at once.
+
+
+BERKSHIRE FRUIT PUNCH
+
+ 1 quart of Apollinaris,

+ 2 cupfuls of selected strawberries,
+ 2 cupfuls of strong tea,
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 orange cut into very thin slices,
+ 1 cupful of Maraschino cherries,
+ Ice water.
+
+Boil the sugar and two cupfuls of water until syrup-like, and add the
+lemon and orange juice. Grate the pineapple and hull the strawberries;
+make the tea by pouring two cupfuls of boiling water over one and a
+half teaspoonfuls of tea, allowing it to infuse for six minutes. Mix
+the syrup, fruit juices, tea and grated pineapple, and add two quarts
+of iced water; stir well and pour over a square of ice in the punch
+bowl. Add the orange, sliced very thin and cut into halves, and the
+strawberries. When ready to serve pour the Apollinaris over all and
+serve at once.
+
+If strawberries are out of season, use Malaga grapes, cut in two and
+seeded.
+
+An ideal decoration is to use grapes in bunches, hanging them around
+the edge of the bowl. Use white and blue grapes, or red and white;
+separating them with grape leaves if they are obtainable.
+
+
+HONEY BLOSSOM PUNCH
+
+ 1 cupful of honey,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 quart of water,

+ Ice,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+Boil the honey, sugar, two cupfuls of water and the grated rind or zest
+of one orange together for five minutes. Allow to cool and add the
+other two cupfuls of water and the juice of the oranges and lemons;
+stir and pour over a block of ice in the punch bowl. Add the grated
+pineapple and the strawberries, which should have been hulled. When
+ready for service add the carbonated water, using a quart.
+
+
+COLUMBIA PINEAPPLE PUNCH

+ 1 pineapple,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 4 slices of cucumber,
+ 2 cupfuls of selected strawberries,
+ 1 banana,
+ Ground cinnamon,

+ 1 cupful of sugar.
+
+Shred into very small pieces the edible part of a very ripe pineapple
+and add the oranges sliced very thin, the cucumber slices and the
+strawberries cut into halves, one banana cut into dice and a generous
+cupful of sugar. Stir these together with a pint of iced water and
+allow to stand for a half hour on the ice. Remove the cucumber slices,
+add a quarter-teaspoonful of ground cinnamon; add the cider and last,
+the Apollinaris. Serve at once.
+
+The most satisfactory glasses to use would be tall slim glasses,
+serving a long handled spoon—an iced-tea-spoon will do—with each
+service so that the fruit may be eaten.
+
+

+sugar, and grape juice; stir to dissolve the sugar and add the shredded
+pineapple, maraschino cherries and the peeled and seeded grapes. Do not
+allow this to stand, but pour the ginger ale and Apollinaris over and
+serve immediately. If the punch seems too thick, a pint of water or
+more may be added without detriment.
+

+
+PUNCHES FROM SYRUPS
+
+Delicious punches may be made from syrups, whether home-made or
+commercial, whether made as syrups for this purpose or the fruit syrups
+from preserves, or the medium syrups from the cold-pack canning.
+
+Very often there is more syrup or juice than is needed for table
+service in a jar of berries, and this juice may be used at once, or a
+little more sugar added, reheated, placed in cans, sealed and put away
+for later use.
+
+For instance; if a can of strawberries is opened and found to have more
+juice than usual, pour off the surplus and use at once, or add enough
+sugar to make a thicker syrup,—which amount will have to be determined
+by the amount of juice,—and re-can and store.

+
+ III—COCKTAILS, HIGHBALLS, FIZZES, COBBLERS, SOURS AND JULEPS
+
+
+ NON-ALCOHOLIC COCKTAILS
+
+As the mission of a cocktail is to be an appetizer, it should be served
+at the beginning of a meal. It may be made of fruits, of vegetables,
+of both fruits and vegetables, or of liquids, as one wishes. Most
+cocktails served at the home table will doubtless be made of fresh
+fruits, but the housekeeper will find that there are a number of
+combinations of fruits and vegetables which will be quite acceptable to
+her family and guests.
+
+There are several things to remember when making a cocktail; one of
+which is, always use attractive glasses and be sure that they shine.
+Have the ingredients quite cold and by no means make them too sweet,
+for if they lose the tartness, the best effect is lost.
+
+The more attractive the cocktail _looks_, the more appetizing it will
+prove to be.
+
+
+CUCUMBER COCKTAIL
+
+For individual portion use the following:
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of peeled, chopped cucumber,
+ ½ teaspoonful of grated horse-radish,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of chopped onion,
+ 1 teaspoonful of chopped celery,
+ ½ teaspoonful of chopped radish (not peeled),
+ Salt,
+ French dressing,
+ Paprika.
+
+Chop the cucumber, celery, onion and radish; mix with the horse-radish,
+and salt to taste. Drain and mix with a little French dressing, place
+in either sherbet or cocktail glasses, which have been chilled, and
+serve very cold. Berry forks, oyster forks, or small salad forks are
+best to use for vegetable cocktails.
+
+
+TOMATO COCKTAIL
+
+For individual portion use:
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of minced tomato,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of aspic jelly, cut into dice,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of chopped chives,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of chopped celery,
+ French dressing,
+ Green peppers.
+
+Remove the tops from as many peppers as are needed, remove the seeds
+and membrane and place on ice to chill. Cut the aspic jelly into dice,
+mince the tomato and chop the celery and chives, mix and drain. Use
+only enough French dressing to mix well. Serve very cold.
+
+
+PEACH COCKTAIL
+
+For each portion use:
+
+ 1 peach,
+ 4 drops of lemon juice,
+ 3 Maraschino cherries,

+chill the peach. Cut into small pieces, add the Maraschino cherries cut
+into quarters, and mix with a tablespoonful of shaved ice and three
+tablespoonfuls of raspberry syrup, either home-made or commercial.
+Serve very cold. Use a spoon with a fruit cocktail.
+
+

+
+For each service use:
+
+ ½ orange,
+ ⅓ banana,

+cocktail. Serve very cold.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY COCKTAIL
+
+For each service use:
+
+ 8 selected strawberries,
+ 6 Malaga grapes,
+ 1 tablespoonful of grenadine,
+ 1 tablespoonful of cherry syrup,
+ Ice.
+
+Hull the strawberries, peel the grapes and remove the seeds, cutting
+the grapes in two; mix with a tablespoonful of shaved ice, the
+grenadine and the cherry syrup. Syrup from home-made preserves may be
+used or one may use commercial syrup. Serve thoroughly chilled.
+
+A sherbet glass will be found most satisfactory for this cocktail.
+
+
+WATERMELON COCKTAIL
+
+ ⅓ teaspoonful of chopped mint,
+ 4 tablespoonfuls of white grape juice,
+ Watermelon cubes to fill the glass,
+ Ice.
+
+Select the heart of the watermelon and cut it into small cubes; chop

+
+
+MALAGA COCKTAIL

+ ⅓ cupful of Malaga grapes,
+ 6 Maraschino cherries,

+ 6 Malaga grapes,
+ 4 tablespoonfuls of raspberry syrup,
+ Ice.

+Separate the grape fruit and orange into sections and remove the
+membrane, break into small pieces—being sure to reserve the juice
+of the fruit; peel and seed the grapes, cut them in two and cut the
+cherries into pieces. Mix these with a tablespoonful of shaved ice and
+the raspberry syrup. Serve very cold.

+
+
+ FRUIT FIZZES
+
+The glass in which to serve a fizz is straight-sided, in fact a
+tumbler, holding about eight ounces. There are variations of these, but
+it is best to match the rest of the glassware used on the table.

+
+
+ RICKEYS FROM FRUIT JUICES
+
+When one wearies of other mixed drinks, try a rickey made of fruit
+juice, and I am sure the experiment will be tried again.
+
+
+GINGER RICKEY

+
+ COBBLERS
+
+So many pleasant and refreshing drinks may be made of fruit juices,
+and I am quite sure that none are more satisfying than fruit juice
+cobblers. In drinks, as in anything the hostess sets before her guests,

+drink.

+
+
+ JULEPS WHICH CHEER BUT DO NOT INEBRIATE
+
+Try these delightful juleps and let me prove that I am right.
+
+
+GINGER ALE JULEP
+
+For each service, use:
+
+ 2 sprays of mint,
+ ½ lemon,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ ½ pint of ginger ale,
+ Lemon peeling,
+ Water,
+ Ice.
+
+If there are to be a number served, the lemon juice, lemon peel, sugar
+and a little water may be mixed, crushed with the mint, and allowed to
+stand on ice for half an hour before mixing. If one is to make only one
+or two drinks, it is as well to mix in the glasses.
+
+Put one spray of mint in the glass, crush with a spoon; add the sugar,
+a piece of the lemon peel and a little water. Continue to mash with
+the spoon until the juice is extracted from the mint and some of the
+volatile oils are extracted from the lemon peeling, then remove the
+crushed mint and peeling. Add the lemon juice, stir and fill the glass,
+which should be a tall goblet, with crushed ice, then pour in the
+ginger ale. Place a fresh spray of mint in the glass and top with two
+or three Maraschino cherries. Serve with a straw.
+
+
+GEORGIA MINT JULEP
+
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice,
+ 1 teaspoonful of powdered sugar,
+ ¼ cupful of peach syrup,
+ ¾ cupful of white grape juice,
+ 4 sprays of fresh mint,
+ Ice.
+
+Use a tall goblet; crush a spray of mint in the bottom of the glass,
+add the sugar and a very little water, and stir until the sugar
+dissolves; then add the peach syrup. Fill the glass nearly full with
+crushed ice and fill with grape juice. Add several fresh sprays of mint
+and serve.
+
+
+TEA JULEP
+
+This is made best in a quantity large enough to serve several people.
+The amount may be doubled or cut in two if the hostess wishes, however.
+
+ 1 quart of tea infusion,
+ 12 sprays of fresh mint,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 2 lemons,
+ ½ a medium cucumber,
+ 1 pint of ginger ale,
+ Ice,
+ Sugar.
+
+Make the tea infusion by pouring a quart of water over two teaspoonfuls
+of tea and allowing it to stand for six minutes. When cool pour into
+a large bowl; add six sprays of mint, the oranges sliced thinly, the
+juice of the lemons, the half cucumber, peeled and sliced, and sugar to
+taste. This should stand on ice for an hour. When ready to serve remove
+the cucumber and the mint; pour into a tall glass pitcher which has
+been half filled with crushed ice. Add the remaining six sprays of mint
+and a dozen strawberries if in season, and last, add the ginger ale and
+serve.
+
+
+APPLE JUICE JULEP
+
+ 1 tablespoonful of powdered sugar,
+ 2½ tablespoonfuls of water,
+ ½ cupful of commercial apple juice,
+ 4 sprays of mint,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the sugar, lemon juice and water into a tall goblet and stir until
+the sugar is dissolved; add two sprays of fresh mint and crush until
+the flavor of the mint is extracted; remove the mint, fill the glass
+nearly full of crushed ice and fill in with the apple juice; thrust the
+remaining sprays of mint into the ice and serve.

+
+ IV—FRUIT VINEGARS, SHRUBS AND WATERS
+
+
+A generation or two ago every housewife who prided herself upon her
+ability as a hostess was very sure to have in her cellar shrubs and
+fruit vinegars of many kinds. For in this way she could always offer a
+guest a delightful and refreshing drink with the least amount of work
+and expenditure of time.
+
+1 have been fortunate to have found in the family recipes for vinegars
+and shrubs dating back to 1845. Besides these I shall give those of
+later dates, allowing my readers to try them and decide for themselves
+which they shall use.
+
+
+RASPBERRY VINEGAR (date 1845)
+
+ 2 quarts of raspberries,
+ 1 pint of cider vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+To two quarts of raspberries use one pint of cider vinegar. Allow
+this to stand for two or three days; then mash and put them in a bag
+to strain. To every pint of juice, when strained, add a pound of
+granulated sugar. Boil this for twenty minutes, skim and bottle when
+cold.
+
+
+RASPBERRY VINEGAR (MOTHER’S)
+
+ 10 quarts of red raspberries,
+ Cider vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Look over ten quarts of red raspberries and cover with cider vinegar.
+Allow this to stand for two or three days, then strain and press the
+juice from the berries. To every pint of juice add one pound of sugar,
+and boil until of the consistency of syrup. Bottle and store for use. A
+tablespoonful to a glass of iced water is an excellent proportion.
+
+
+RASPBERRY VINEGAR (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 2 quarts of raspberries,
+ 1 quart of French vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Put one quart of the berries in a deep crock and pour the vinegar over
+them, allowing this to stand for twenty-four hours. Strain through
+a jelly bag, add the other quart of berries and allow them to stand
+another twenty-four hours. Strain again, adding the berries, allow this
+to stand for a third time for twenty-four hours. Then strain through
+a muslin bag and add one pound of granulated sugar for each pint of
+juice. Boil the whole for half an hour, using a porcelain kettle. When
+cold, bottle and seal. Kept in a cool place this will keep for years,
+improving with age.
+
+Créoles use this vinegar by adding a teaspoonful to a small glass of
+iced water, sometimes putting a little more sugar with it, as pleases
+the taste of the guest.
+
+
+BLACKBERRY VINEGAR (NEW ENGLAND RECIPE)
+
+ 10 quarts of blackberries,
+ Cider vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Cover ten quarts of blackberries with cider vinegar and allow to
+stand for three days, strain and press all the juice possible from
+the berries, using a jelly bag. To every pint of juice add one pound
+of granulated sugar and boil for twenty minutes. Skim, and when cold
+bottle and seal.
+
+To serve, use a tablespoonful to a glass of iced water.
+
+
+BLACKBERRY VINEGAR (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 2 quarts of blackberries,
+ 1 quart of French vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Put one quart of blackberries into a deep jar and pour the vinegar
+over. Allow this to stand for twenty-four hours, strain, add the other
+quart of berries, returning the first berries, allow this to again
+stand for twenty-four hours. Strain again, returning the berries,
+allow it to stand for the third twenty-four hours. Strain through a
+muslin bag, and add a pound of sugar for every pint of juice. Boil in
+a porcelain kettle for a half hour. When cold, bottle and keep in a
+cool place. This vinegar will improve with age. Use a teaspoonful to a
+_small_ glass of iced water, when serving.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY VINEGAR
+
+ 10 quarts of strawberries,
+ Vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Hull the berries and cover them with a pure cider vinegar, allowing
+them to stand twenty-four hours. Strain, and press all the juice
+possible from the berries, using a jelly bag for the straining. Add one
+pound of granulated sugar to each pint of juice and boil for twenty
+minutes. When cold, bottle and seal and keep in a cool place. Use one
+tablespoonful to the glass when ready to serve.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY VINEGAR (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 2 quarts of strawberries,
+ 1 quart of French vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Pour a quart of vinegar over one quart of berries, using a deep dish;
+allow this to stand for twenty-four hours, strain, add the second
+quart of berries and again allow to stand for twenty-four hours, repeat
+the same operation the next day, making three times in all, then strain
+through a muslin bag, and add one pound of sugar for each pint of
+juice. Boil the mixture for a half hour using a porcelain kettle. When
+cold, bottle and seal. Use one tablespoonful to each small glass of
+iced water, when serving.
+
+
+PINEAPPLE VINEGAR
+
+ 3 ripe pineapples,
+ 1 quart of pure cider vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Peel and slice the pineapples very thin and cover with pure cider
+vinegar, allowing it to stand three days. Mash well, and strain through
+a bag. To every quart of juice allow one and three-quarters pounds of
+granulated sugar. Boil for ten minutes, skim carefully and bottle when
+slightly cool. Use a tablespoonful to each glass of iced water when
+serving.
+
+
+ORANGE VINEGAR
+
+ 3 dozen oranges,
+ 1 quart of cider vinegar,
+ Sugar.
+
+Peel the oranges carefully, slice very thin and cover with the vinegar,
+allowing them to stand for three days. Mash well, and strain through a
+jelly bag. To each quart of juice allow one and three-quarters pounds
+of granulated sugar. Boil for ten minutes, allow to cool slightly;
+bottle and seal. Keep in a cool place. One tablespoonful of this added
+to a glass of iced water makes a delicious drink.
+
+
+CURRANT SHRUB (date of recipe, 1845)
+
+ 2 quarts of currants,
+ Sugar.
+
+Crush the currants and press through a bag; to each pint of juice add
+a pound of granulated sugar, boil five minutes, stir constantly while
+cooling. When cool, bottle and seal. Use a teaspoonful of this syrup to
+a glass of iced water.
+
+
+RASPBERRY SHRUB
+
+Put the raspberries in a porcelain utensil and crush with a wooden
+spoon. Cover with cider vinegar and let stand over night. Strain the
+juice through a jelly bag, add three-fourths of a pound of sugar for
+every pint of the juice. Heat slowly to the boiling point, skim, allow
+to boil five minutes and then bottle while hot. Seal the corks with
+paraffin or sealing wax.
+
+
+ FRUIT WATERS
+
+Fruit waters are prepared shortly before they are to be used, are not
+bottled and stored as are syrups. So it is necessary to make these
+waters only when the fruit to be used is in season.
+
+
+CHERRY WATER
+
+ 2 pounds of cherries,
+ 1 lemon,
+ ½ pound of sugar.
+
+Stone the cherries, mash the pulp well, using a porcelain vessel; add
+a cupful of distilled water (or rain water if it is possible to obtain
+it fresh and clear), and the juice of one lemon. Stir well and allow
+to stand for two hours. Wash the cherry stones, crush and add to the
+cherry pulp; add half a pound of granulated sugar and allow to stand
+for another hour. Strain this mixture and filter, using a jelly bag.
+Put into a jar and set on the ice until ready for use. Fill glasses
+nearly full of crushed ice and fill with the fruit water.
+
+
+ORANGE WATER
+
+ 6 oranges (preferably Florida oranges),
+ 1 ounce of orange flower water (commercial),
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 pint of distilled water.
+
+Extract the juice from the oranges and the lemon; put in an earthen
+dish, add the orange flower water, distilled water, and the sugar. Stir
+until the sugar is dissolved, strain carefully and put on ice until
+ready to serve. Fill the glass nearly full with crushed ice and fill
+with the orange water.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY WATER
+
+ 1 quart of water,
+ ½ pound of sugar,
+ Ripe strawberries.
+
+Select ripe strawberries, crush and strain, pressing all the juice
+possible from them. To each pint of juice, add one quart of distilled
+water and a half pound of granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is
+dissolved and place on ice until ready to serve. Fill the serving glass
+nearly full of crushed ice and fill with the strawberry water.
+
+
+RASPBERRY WATER
+
+ Raspberries to make ½ pint of juice,
+ ½ pound of sugar,
+ 1 quart of water.
+
+Select ripe berries; look them over carefully, as little worms get into
+raspberries. Crush the berries, add a little distilled water, allowing
+them to stand for an hour. Strain through a jelly bag, squeezing all
+the juice possible from them. To a pint of juice add a half pound of
+granulated sugar and the remaining distilled water. Stir well and
+place on ice until ready to use. A teaspoonful to a small glass of
+crushed ice makes a desirable drink for hot days.
+
+
+CURRANT WATER
+
+ ½ pound of sugar,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ Currants to make ½ pint of juice.
+
+Mash the currants, add a little of the quart of distilled water, and
+put on the ice for an hour. At the end of that time, strain through a
+jelly bag; add the sugar and the rest of the distilled water. Stir,
+and set on the ice until time for service. A generous teaspoonful to a
+small glass of crushed ice, or a tablespoonful to a glass of iced water
+is about the amount which will prove pleasing to one’s guests.
+
+
+PINEAPPLE WATER
+
+ 1 large ripe pineapple,
+ ½ pound of sugar,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 quart of distilled water.
+
+Peel the pineapple carefully, cut into thin slices, mash and allow to
+stand for ten minutes. Press as much of the juice as possible through
+a sieve, then allow it to drip through a jelly bag. Add the sugar and
+the water, stir and set on the ice until ready to serve. Into a claret
+glass of crushed ice put two teaspoonfuls of the juice, or into a small
+glass of iced water, put two tablespoonfuls of the juice.
+
+
+
+
+ V—SYRUPS—FRUIT AND PLAIN
+
+
+As many delightful drinks are made with either plain or fruit syrup
+as the foundation, I shall give a number of recipes for making these,
+leaving the housekeeper to decide which she prefers.
+
+
+PLAIN SYRUP
+
+The following recipe is one used by a man famous for his ability in
+mixing drinks:
+
+ 6½ pounds of loaf sugar,
+ ½ gallon of water,
+ 1 egg white.
+
+Boil the sugar, water and egg white together until the sugar is
+thoroughly dissolved; filter through flannel, bottle and seal.
+
+Note: When using a flannel bag, wring it out of very hot water before
+using, being sure that it is as dry as you can make it. In this way
+there will be very little loss of syrup.
+
+
+PLAIN SYRUP No. 2
+
+ 1½ quarts of water,
+ 2 pounds of loaf sugar.
+
+This recipe is also one used by a well-known mixer of drinks.
+
+Put the sugar and water over the fire in an enameled kettle; allow
+it to boil slowly; stirring occasionally. Skim well, and strain into
+bottles and seal.
+
+
+PLAIN SYRUP (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 2 pounds of sugar,
+ 1½ pints of water.
+
+Cook the sugar and water until the syrup snaps instantly if placed
+between the fingers and the fingers are immersed in cold water. Allow
+this to become somewhat cool, bottle and seal.
+
+
+PLAIN SYRUP (OLD RECIPE)
+
+The recipe reads: “To every large teacupful of water, add a pound of
+sugar.” It would seem wiser in this day to use one _measuring_ cupful
+of water to each pound of granulated sugar, if one cares to use this
+recipe. For what one might consider a large cup someone else might
+think rather small.
+
+The recipe directs that “as the sugar and water begins to heat, stir
+it often, and when it rises towards the top of the kettle, put in
+another cupful of water; repeating this process two or three times.”
+If the syrup is not clear, and a scum arises, we are told “to skim it
+carefully, and strain into bottles.”
+
+
+PLAIN SYRUP (QUICKLY MADE)
+
+ 4 pounds of granulated sugar,
+ 1 quart of cold water,
+ 1 egg white.
+
+Put the sugar in a porcelain kettle, add the stiffly beaten white of
+one egg, and the quart of water; stir until the sugar is thoroughly
+dissolved. Put over the fire and simmer for five minutes, skim, strain
+through a flannel bag, bottle and seal. It is always well to make a
+small quantity, for in that way one is assured that there will be no
+spoilage.
+
+When using a flannel bag, be sure to wring it very dry from hot water,
+by so doing insuring the least loss of syrup.
+
+
+GUM SYRUP
+
+Sometimes one reads a recipe in which “gum” is used, and unless one is
+initiated one is not apt to know what is required.
+
+ 3½ pounds of loaf sugar,
+ 2 quarts of water.
+
+Boil together for five minutes, strain and bottle.
+
+
+APRICOT SYRUP (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 3 pints of apricot juice,
+ 1 quart of plain syrup (use Créole recipe for plain syrup),
+ 1 teaspoonful of extract of apricot.
+
+Peel and stone the apricots, cut into small pieces, mash well, cover
+with a linen cloth, and set them on the ice in a stone or porcelain
+jar for thirty-six hours. Then strain through a bag, pressing out all
+the juice possible. Heat the plain syrup until the boiling point is
+reached, add the apricot juice and boil hard for five minutes. Take
+from the fire and allow to become nearly cold; add the extract, bottle
+and keep in a cool place.
+
+
+APRICOT SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of apricot juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar.
+
+Peel and cut into pieces as many apricots as one wishes to use, put
+into a porcelain kettle with a little water—enough to barely cover the
+bottom of the kettle; crack a few of the apricot stones and add to the
+fruit and water. Boil slowly for fifteen minutes, strain through a
+flannel bag. To each pint of juice use one pound of sugar, return to
+the kettle and boil for five minutes. Pour into hot bottles and seal.
+
+
+BLACKBERRY SYRUP (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 3 pints of blackberry juice,
+ 1 quart of plain syrup.
+
+Look the blackberries over very carefully, wash, stem and mash; cover
+carefully with a cloth and set on ice for thirty-six hours. Strain
+through a bag, pressing out all the juice possible. Heat the plain
+syrup to the boiling point and add the blackberry juice, boil for five
+minutes, remove from the fire and allow to become nearly cool; bottle
+and seal. Put in a cool place when storing.
+
+
+BLACKBERRY SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of blackberry juice,
+ 1 pound of granulated sugar,
+ 1 ounce of cider vinegar,
+ 4 whole cloves,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of cinnamon,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of ground mace.
+
+Select perfectly ripe blackberries, wash, mash and put on the ice in a
+carefully covered jar for twenty-four hours. It is well to cover the
+berries with a linen cloth. At the end of that time, press through a
+bag, and to each pint of juice add one pound of granulated sugar, one
+ounce of cider vinegar, four whole cloves, an eighth teaspoonful of
+cinnamon and an eighth teaspoonful of mace. Bring to the boiling point
+and allow it to boil for five minutes, strain into hot bottles and
+seal. When cold, store in a cool place.
+
+
+CHERRY SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of cherry juice,
+ 1 pound of granulated sugar.
+
+Mash enough washed and stemmed cherries to make a pint of juice; let
+the mashed cherries stand on ice for twenty-four hours. Strain through
+a bag, add one pound of sugar to each pint of juice, boil five minutes,
+skim, if necessary and pour into hot bottles; seal and store in a cool
+place.
+
+
+CHERRY SYRUP (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 3 pints of cherry juice,
+ 1 quart of plain syrup.
+
+Wash, stem and pit the cherries; mash them and place on ice for
+thirty-six hours. Press the juice through a bag, measure, and to each
+3 pints of juice use one quart of plain syrup. Heat the syrup to the
+boiling point, add the fruit juice and boil for five minutes. Allow to
+become nearly cold, bottle and seal. Store in a cool place.
+
+
+CHERRY SYRUP (NEW ENGLAND RECIPE)
+
+ 1 pint of cherry juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar.
+
+Wash, stem and mash enough cherries to make a pint of juice, using a
+porcelain vessel; crush a few pits and add to the cherries; allow the
+fruit to stand on ice for twenty-four hours. Strain, and press all the
+juice possible through a bag. To each pint of juice, add one pound of
+granulated sugar, bring to the boiling point and boil for five minutes.
+Skim, if necessary, and put into hot bottles. Seal and store.
+
+
+CURRANT SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of currant juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar.
+
+Stem, wash and mash enough currants to make a pint of juice. Cover and
+stand on ice for twenty-four hours. Strain through a bag, squeezing out
+all the juice possible. To each pint add one pound of granulated sugar,
+and boil for five minutes. Skim, if necessary, bottle in hot bottles,
+seal and store in a cool place.
+
+
+GRAPE SYRUP (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 1 quart of plain syrup,
+ 1 pint of grape juice (made at home),
+ 1 pint of Catawba grape juice (commercial).
+
+Wash, stem and seed the grapes; crush and set on ice for thirty-six
+hours. Strain through a bag, add the Catawba juice, and add that to
+the plain syrup, which should have been brought to the boiling point.
+Mix and boil together for five minutes. Strain, and when nearly cold,
+bottle and store.
+
+
+LEMON SYRUP
+
+ 4 pounds of sugar,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 2 cupfuls of lemon juice.
+
+Boil the water and sugar together for ten minutes, add the lemon juice,
+continue boiling for another five minutes, strain into hot bottles and
+store.
+
+
+ORANGE SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of orange juice,
+ ½ cupful of lemon juice,
+ 1 quart of plain syrup (see recipe).
+
+Bring the plain syrup to the boiling point, add the lemon and orange
+juice, continue to boil for five minutes. Strain into hot bottles and
+store in a cool place.
+
+
+ORGEAT SYRUP (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+A very little of this syrup used in drinks where a mixture of fruits is
+used will be found most satisfactory.
+
+ 1 pound of sweet almonds,
+ 4 ounces of bitter almonds,
+ 2 pounds of granulated sugar,
+ 1 quart of soft water (distilled, if preferred),
+ 1 lemon,
+ 2 ounces of orange flower water.
+
+Shell the almonds, and throw into _cold_ water, allowing them to stand
+until the skin will come off readily. Mash them, using a mortar, if
+possible, or an earthen dish; continue to crush and mash, adding a
+few drops of water and a little of the zest of the lemon, until the
+mixture is pastelike. Moisten this paste with half of the soft water,
+and squeeze as much as possible through a firm bag. Return the paste to
+the dish and add the rest of the water, stir, put into the bag again
+and again press all through the bag that is possible.
+
+Bring the plain syrup to the boiling point; remove from the fire, stir
+the almond milk in thoroughly, return to the fire and bring again to
+the boiling point, allowing it to boil for five minutes. When cool,
+add the orange flower water; stir well, being sure that it is well
+blended. Strain again, and place in bottles; seal and store. It is
+well, however, to watch this and shake the bottles once in a while,
+especially if the almond oil has risen to the top.
+
+
+ORANGE FLOWER SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of orange flower water,
+ 1½ pounds of granulated sugar.
+
+Put the sugar into a porcelain kettle with the orange flower water,
+stir until the sugar is dissolved, place on the fire and slowly bring
+to the boiling point. Remove from the fire, cool somewhat and bottle.
+Store in a cool place.
+
+
+PEACH SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of peach juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar,
+ ½ teaspoonful of peach extract.
+
+Peel the peaches by dropping them into boiling water for one minute,
+then the skin may be rubbed off, wasting none of the fruit at all.
+Cut the peaches in small pieces, crack a few peach stones and add to
+the fruit, placing all in a porcelain kettle; cover the bottom of the
+kettle with water and boil slowly for fifteen minutes, strain through a
+flannel bag, add one pound of sugar to each pint of juice and bring to
+the boiling point again, boil for five minutes; take from the fire, add
+the peach extract and bottle in hot bottles.
+
+
+PINEAPPLE SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of pineapple juice,
+ 1 quart of plain syrup,
+ ⅛ cupful of lemon juice.
+
+Peel the pineapple, remove the eyes, using a pineapple scissors if
+possible, for in that manner it is possible to remove _all_ the eye
+with the least amount of trouble. Wind a towel around the pines, and
+grate the pineapple on a coarse grater. Be sure to hold the pineapple
+over a porcelain kettle or dish while working with it, so saving all
+the juice. Heat a quart of plain syrup until it begins to boil, add the
+pint of pineapple juice, and boil for five minutes; take from the fire
+and add the lemon juice. Bottle while hot, using hot bottles. Seal and
+store in a cool place.
+
+
+RASPBERRY SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of raspberry juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar.
+
+Pick all the stems from the berries and look them over very carefully
+as there are many little insects which like to hide in raspberries.
+Wash and mash thoroughly. Place on ice for twenty-four hours, strain
+through a bag and add one pound of sugar to each pint of juice. Bring
+this to the boiling point and boil for five minutes. Strain into hot
+bottles and seal. Keep in a cool place, preferably a dark one.
+
+
+RASPBERRY AND CURRANT SYRUP
+
+ ½ pint of raspberry juice,
+ ½ pint of currant juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar.
+
+Remove the stems, and discard any imperfect berries, remove the stems
+and wash the currants; place in a bowl or porcelain kettle and mash
+thoroughly. Place on ice, closely covered with a fine cloth, for
+twenty-four hours. Strain through a bag and add one pound of granulated
+sugar to each pint of juice. Boil for five minutes and put in hot
+bottles. Seal the bottles and place in a cool dark place until ready to
+use.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of strawberry juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar.
+
+Select ripe berries only, but be sure that they are not overripe. Hull
+them, put them in a bowl or porcelain kettle, mash well, cover with a
+cloth and place on ice for ten hours. Strain through a bag, pressing
+out all the juice possible. To each pint of juice add one pound of
+granulated sugar, put over a slow fire, stir constantly, and when the
+boiling point is reached, skim and bottle while hot. Use hot bottles,
+seal and store in a cool dark place.
+
+
+LIME SYRUP
+
+ 1 pint of lime juice (use fresh limes),
+ 1 quart of plain syrup.
+
+Extract the juice from the limes; bring the plain syrup to the boiling
+point, add the lime juice, continue to boil for five minutes longer.
+Strain into hot bottles and seal. Store where it is both dark and cool.
+
+
+ CHOCOLATE SYRUPS
+
+If one would be able to serve cold chocolate drinks at home which will
+rival those offered at the soda fountains, one must learn how to make
+chocolate syrups and keep them bottled for an emergency.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE SYRUP (FOR BOTTLING)
+
+ 1½ pounds of cocoa,
+ 1½ pints of water,
+ 1½ pounds of sugar,
+ 1 teaspoonful of vanilla.
+
+Heat the water until boiling, and use a little of it to moisten the
+cocoa, mixing it until smooth; add the sugar, and the rest of the
+water, stir carefully, being sure that the mixture is smooth, put over
+the fire and bring to the boiling point; boil for five minutes and pour
+into sterilized bottles. Seal and put away in a cool place.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE SYRUP (FOR IMMEDIATE USE)
+
+ ½ cupful of cocoa,
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of boiling water,
+ Vanilla.
+
+Mix the cocoa and sugar, stir in a little of the water, mixing well to
+be sure that the mixture is smooth; then add the rest of the water,
+stir well and boil for five minutes. Add a half teaspoonful of vanilla
+and put into a pint jar until needed for the refreshing drink.
+
+Two tablespoonfuls to each glass is about the right proportion when
+ready to serve.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE SYRUP (MADE FROM UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE)
+
+Because chocolate is somewhat richer than cocoa, many prefer it. The
+following recipe, easily made, will be found most satisfactory.
+
+ ¼ pound of grated chocolate,
+ 1 cupful of granulated sugar,
+ 1 cupful of water,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla.
+
+Grate the chocolate, add the sugar and then the hot water, mixing well.
+Bring to the boiling point, boil for ten minutes, and put in a cool
+place until serving time. A fruit jar is a most acceptable receptacle.
+
+
+COFFEE SYRUP
+
+ ¼ pound of Java coffee,
+ ¼ pound of Mocha coffee,
+ ½ gallon of water,
+ 5 pounds of granulated sugar.
+
+Grind the coffee, add the cold water and boil for five minutes; strain
+and add the sugar; boil up again, strain a second time and bottle while
+hot.
+
+
+COFFEE SYRUP No. 2
+
+ ½ cupful of powdered coffee,
+ 3 cupfuls of boiling water,
+ 3 tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar.
+
+Use any coffee desired, although a mixture of Java and Mocha is
+recommended. Pulverize the coffee, pack it in the bag of a drip pot;
+pour the boiling water over it slowly, allow it to drip until the
+powdered coffee in the bag seems dry. Add the sugar, boil for five
+minutes and bottle while hot. Use hot bottles, and seal immediately.
+
+
+CREAM SYRUP
+
+ ½ pint of thick cream,
+ ½ pint of milk,
+ 1 pound of block sugar.
+
+Pour enough hot water over the sugar to melt it, add the milk, stir
+until the sugar is dissolved and add the cream; mix well and it is
+ready for use.
+
+
+SARSAPARILLA SYRUP
+
+ 10 drops of oil of wintergreen,
+ 10 drops of oil of sassafras,
+ ½ ounce of fluid extract of liquorice,
+ 5 pints of plain syrup.
+
+Heat the plain syrup until the boiling point is reached, and stir in
+the essential oils. Bottle while hot.
+
+
+
+
+ VI—GRAPE JUICE, ROOT BEERS AND CIDER
+
+
+ GRAPE JUICE
+
+As it is possible to purchase grape juice, either purple or white, in
+bottles, at prices which are not at all beyond reason, it is hardly
+necessary to make it at home, but if one has a few grapes which one
+desires to use for drinks and has not the opportunity to obtain the
+commercial product it may be made after the directions issued by the
+Department of Agriculture at Washington.
+
+These directions follow.
+
+
+ TO MAKE GRAPE JUICE
+
+Only clean, sound, well ripened, but not overripe, grapes should
+be used. These may be crushed and pressed either by hand or in an
+ordinary cider mill. If light colored juice is desired, the crushed
+grapes are put in a clean, well washed cloth sack and either hung up
+and twisted or grasped by two persons, one at either end, and twisted
+until the greater part of the juice is expressed. Then, in a double
+boiler or its equivalent, such as a large stone jar placed in a pan of
+hot water, so that the juice does not come in direct contact with the
+fire, the juice is gradually heated to a temperature of 180° to 200°
+F. The temperature should never be allowed to go over 200° F. It is
+best to use a thermometer; if none is available, however, the juice
+may be heated until it steams, but it should not be allowed to boil.
+It should be poured immediately into a glass or enameled vessel and
+allowed to settle for 24 hours; then the juice should be drained from
+the sediment and run through several thicknesses of clean flannel or
+through a conic filter made from woolen cloth or felt and fixed to a
+hoop of iron, so that it can be suspended wherever necessary. The juice
+is then poured into clean bottles, space being left at the top for the
+liquid to expand when heated. A good home substitute for the commercial
+pasteurizer is an ordinary wash boiler with a thin board fitted over
+the bottom on which the filled bottles are set. Ordinary glass fruit
+jars serve the same purpose equally well. The tubs should be filled
+with water within an inch or so of the tops of the bottles and heated
+until the water begins to simmer. The bottles should be taken out and
+sealed or corked immediately. Only new corks that have just been soaked
+in a temperature of about 140° F. should be used. It is well to take
+the further precaution of sealing the corks with paraffin or sealing
+wax to prevent the entrance of mold germs.
+
+When red juice is desired, crushed grapes should first be heated to a
+temperature of not more than 200° F.; then strained through a clean
+cloth or drip bag, no pressure being used, and set away to cool and
+settle. The remaining procedure is the same for the red as for the
+light colored juice. Many people do not even take the trouble to let
+the juice settle after it is strained, simply reheating and sealing the
+vessels and setting them away in an upright position in a cool place
+where they will be undisturbed. If bottles are used, the corks should
+be sterilized and the necks of the bottles sealed with sealing wax. The
+juice settles, and when desired for use the clear liquid is poured off
+the sediment.
+
+Any person familiar with the process of canning fruit can put up grape
+juice, for the principles involved are the same. Care should be taken
+not to sterilize the juice at a temperature higher than 195° F.; or the
+finished product will have a scorched taste. The bottles or jars should
+not be so large that when they are opened the juice will spoil before
+it can be used. Unfermented grape juice, properly made and bottled,
+will keep indefinitely if not exposed to the atmosphere or to infection
+of mold germs; when a bottle is once open, however, the contents, like
+canned goods generally, should be used as soon as possible. Unfermented
+juice may be made not only from all varieties of grapes, but also from
+some other fruits, such as apples, pears and cherries. Some berries
+also yield excellent juices.
+
+
+ GRAPE JUICE No. 2
+
+Crush the grapes in a clean kettle with a wooden spoon and put them in
+a cloth sack or jelly bag. Twist the sack or press it until the juice
+has all come out. Put the juice in a double boiler over hot water until
+it steams. If a kettle is used, great care must be taken that the juice
+does not boil. Let the juice stand in an enamel kettle for 24 hours to
+settle. Run it through a flannel jelly bag and put into clean bottles.
+Leave space in bottle for the liquid to expand. Put the bottle in a
+sterilizer and fill the sterilizer with cold water until within an inch
+of the top of the bottles. Heat the water slowly until it is nearly
+simmering, take the bottles out and insert clean corks, and, as a final
+precaution it is advisable to dip the top of the cork in sealing wax or
+paraffin.
+
+This makes a light colored juice. For a red juice, the grapes may be
+heated until just before the boiling point as in the first part of the
+process. It is not necessary to allow the juice to settle but it is
+much clearer if you do.
+
+ ROOT BEERS
+
+GINGER BEER
+
+ 2 ounces of ginger root,
+ 2 ounces of cream of tartar,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1½ pounds of granulated sugar,
+ ¼ cake of compressed yeast.
+
+Place the ginger in a large bowl, bruise and pound thoroughly; add
+boiling water, then the grated rind of the lemon and when stirred in,
+add the juice of the lemon. Now mix in the cream of tartar and the
+sugar; stir well, allow to cool until lukewarm; add the yeast which
+should have been dissolved in a little warm water. Mix all together,
+cover tightly and allow to stand for six hours. At the end of that
+time, strain and put into bottles having patent tops, unless one has a
+commercial “topper” which is most desirable. Keep in a cool place, for
+if kept warm or not securely corked the beer will effervesce.
+
+
+ENGLISH GINGER BEER
+
+This interesting recipe dates back to about 1840.
+
+ 1½ ounces of ginger,
+ 4 quarts of boiling water,
+ 1 ounce of cream of tartar,
+ 1 pound of sugar,
+ 2 lemons,
+ 1 cupful of yeast.
+
+Pour the boiling water upon the ginger and the sugar (either brown or
+granulated may be used) add two lemons thinly sliced. Into this pour
+one cupful of good yeast and allow it to stand for twenty-four hours.
+Pour off carefully and put into bottles.
+
+
+MAPLE BEER
+
+ 4 gallons of boiling water,
+ 1 quart of pure maple syrup,
+ 1 tablespoonful of essence of spruce,
+ 1 pint of yeast.
+
+This recipe too, dates back to 1840.
+
+Put in a large container, one quart of pure maple syrup, and add
+one gallon of boiling water and the spruce essence; allow this to
+stand until lukewarm, then add a pint of yeast, allowing it to stand
+twenty-four hours. Pour off carefully and bottle and seal.
+
+
+ROOT BEER
+
+ ½ cupful of commercial root beer extract,
+ 5 pounds of sugar,
+ 5 gallons of rain water,
+ ¾ cake of compressed yeast.
+
+Dissolve the yeast cake in a little warm water; mix the sugar and root
+beer extract together and add the water, which should be hot; allow
+this to stand until lukewarm and add the yeast cake; mix well, allow to
+settle and pour into bottles. If one owns patent top bottles they are
+easily handled. Fasten the stopper and store where it is cool. The beer
+will be ready for use after twenty-four hours.
+
+It is not at all necessary to put this beer up in such quantities; just
+divide or subdivide the recipe.
+
+
+SPRUCE BEER (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 2 quarts of water,
+ ½ ounce of hops,
+ ½ teaspoonful of ginger,
+ ½ pint of Louisiana molasses,
+ 4 tablespoonfuls of yeast,
+ Sprigs of spruce.
+
+Gather a handful of spruce sprigs, break and bruise, and steep in a
+little water until a strong essence is made.
+
+Pour the water over the hops and the ginger and allow to boil; strain
+and add the molasses and essence of spruce. Cool until lukewarm and add
+the yeast. Cover tightly and stand away for twenty-four hours. Pour off
+carefully and bottle. Seal and store in a cool place. In two days the
+beer is ready for use.
+
+One may gather the spruce sprigs as directed, or purchase the extract
+or essence of spruce, or steep the spruce gum.
+
+
+BIRCH BEER
+
+ ¼ pound of black birch bark,
+ ½ ounce of hops,
+ 1 teaspoonful of ginger,
+ ½ compressed yeast cake,
+ 1 pint of corn syrup,
+ 3 quarts of water (soft or rain water).
+
+Boil the birch bark in a quart of water until reduced a third; strain
+and set aside until the hops, syrup and ginger has boiled for twenty
+minutes. Strain and mix with the birch extract; when cooled until about
+lukewarm add the yeast cake dissolved in a little warm water. Cover
+tightly and stand away for twenty-four hours. Strain into bottles and
+cork well.
+
+
+CIDER
+
+It would seem unnecessary labor to make cider at home, unless, of
+course one lives on a farm and has many apples to dispose of after the
+selected apples are shipped or stored for winter use. And even in that
+event one is likely to take the apples to a community cider mill. But
+if there should be a time when one of my readers cares to try cider
+making at home it may be done with utensils found in every kitchen.
+
+Be sure that there are no bruised or rotted spots on the apples to be
+used and wipe them carefully with a damp cloth. Cut them in pieces and
+run through a food grinder, placing a deep dish where it will catch
+_all_ of the juice. Place a fine cloth in a colander; pile the apple
+pomace (the ground apple) in it and pour all the juice in too. Fold the
+cloth over and place a heavy weight on top, pressing it often. When the
+juice or cider is pressed out, bottle and use. It should not be kept,
+as it becomes sour very quickly.
+
+It is probably as economical to purchase the sweet cider as to use the
+time and the necessary apples to make the cider.
+
+
+TO KEEP CIDER SWEET AND SPARKLING
+
+(Date of recipe, 1845)
+
+Let the new sweet cider ferment from one to three weeks according to
+whether the weather is cool or warm, longer if cool or one week if
+warm. When it has attained a lively fermentation, add to each gallon,
+according to its acidity, from one half to two pounds of sugar, and
+allow it to again ferment until the desired sweetness is reached.
+Pour out one quart of the cider and add for each gallon one-quarter
+ounce of sulphite of lime (anti-chloride). Stir the powder and cider
+until thoroughly mixed and return to the rest of the cider. Agitate
+well and briskly for a few minutes and then let the cider settle. The
+fermentation will cease at once. After a few days draw off the clear
+cider, bottle carefully, and cork well. Bottles with patent stoppers
+will be found most satisfactory.
+
+
+TO BOIL CIDER
+
+(Old New England recipe)
+
+Use perfectly sweet cider, preferably not over two days old: boil until
+boiled down about half. Skim often, pour into hot bottles and cork
+tightly. Store in a cool place.
+
+This may be used for drinks, by stirring two tablespoonfuls into a
+glassful of iced water.

+
+ VII—COLD MILK DRINKS, HOT MILK AND BUTTERMILK
+
+
+ SHAKES, NOGGS AND PUNCHES
+
+While many do not care for milk as a drink, still milk in combination
+with syrups, eggs, malted milk, flavoring extracts or fruit juices will
+be found pleasing even to those who would not drink it plain. When one
+considers the amount of nourishment furnished by a glass of milk, it is
+well to serve it when possible, even disguised as a nogg or punch.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE MILK
+
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ ⅛ cupful of chocolate syrup (see syrups) (2 tablespoonfuls),
+ Ice.
+
+Use a cocktail shaker, put two tablespoonfuls of cracked ice in the
+shaker, add the chocolate syrup and the milk; shake well, strain into
+a tall glass and serve. It is wise to use an iced tea glass, as these
+glasses hold at least ten ounces, and as a measuring cup will hold
+eight ounces of milk, there is room for the ice and syrup.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE, EGG AND MILK
+
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 1 egg,
+ ⅛ cupful of chocolate syrup (2 tablespoonfuls),
+ Ice.
+
+Place all the ingredients in a cocktail shaker, shake thoroughly and
+strain into a tall thin glass. There is enough nourishment in a drink
+of this sort to be used as a substitute for luncheon if one is too
+hurried to take time for a comfortable luncheon, slowly eaten.
+
+
+COCOA NOGG
+
+ ⅝ cupful of milk,
+ ⅛ cupful of cocoa syrup (2 tablespoonfuls),
+ 1 egg,
+ Ice.
+
+Separate the white and the yolk of the egg, whip the white until dry
+and stiff, put the yolk, ice, cocoa syrup and the milk into a shaker
+and shake well; pour about three-quarters of the mixture into a tall
+glass, pour the rest over the beaten white, stir it swiftly, and add to
+the mixture in the glass.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE CREAM FLOAT
+
+For each service use:
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of chocolate syrup,
+ ½ cupful of milk,
+ ¼ cupful of thick cream,
+ Powdered sugar,
+ Vanilla.
+
+Multiply this recipe by the number of persons to be served, making the
+full amount, serving in glasses as desired.
+
+Select attractive glasses, narrow, tall, stemmed glasses are the
+best; fill them nearly to the top with finely cracked ice, put two
+tablespoonfuls of chocolate syrup into each glass, add a half cupful
+of milk; fill with stiffly whipped cream. When whipping the cream add
+enough powdered sugar to make it slightly sweet and stir in a few drops
+of vanilla.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE SHAKE
+
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of chocolate syrup,
+ 1 egg,
+ Ice,
+ Vanilla.
+
+Whip the white and the yolk of the egg separately. Put the yolk, ice,
+milk, chocolate and a few drops of vanilla in a cocktail shaker and
+shake well for at least two minutes. Put the stiffly whipped white in a
+tall glass, pour the chocolate mixture over, stirring it in slightly,
+and serve. Serve with a straw.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE PUNCH
+
+ 1 egg,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ ⅛ cupful of chocolate syrup (2 tablespoonfuls),
+ Nutmeg,
+ Few drops of vanilla,
+ Ice,
+ Ice cream.
+
+Put the egg, milk, chocolate syrup, vanilla and ice in a cocktail
+shaker, shake for three minutes, strain into a tall thin glass and add
+a generous grating of nutmeg and top with a spoonful of vanilla ice
+cream.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE CREAM PUNCH
+
+ 1 egg,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ ⅛ cupful of chocolate syrup (2 tablespoonfuls),
+ ⅓ cupful of thick cream,
+ Ice,
+ Sugar.
+
+Whip the cream until stiff, adding a little powdered sugar, put the
+egg, milk, chocolate syrup and a little cracked ice in a shaker; shake
+well, strain into a tall thin glass and top with the whipped cream.
+Serve with a long handled spoon.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE SODA
+
+ ½ cupful of top milk,
+ ⅛ cupful of chocolate syrup (2 tablespoonfuls),
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of vanilla ice cream,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+Put the chocolate syrup in a tall glass, then the top milk, or milk and
+cream mixed, add two tablespoonfuls of ice cream; fill the glass with
+carbonated water, using a syphon. Serve with a long handled spoon. One
+may use chocolate ice cream if one prefers.
+
+
+COFFEE, EGG AND MILK
+
+ ⅓ cupful of dripped coffee,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of plain syrup,
+ 1 egg,
+ ¾ cupful of top milk,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the egg, ice, milk, coffee and syrup in a cocktail shaker and shake
+thoroughly for two minutes; strain into a tall thin glass and serve at
+once.
+
+
+COFFEE PUNCH
+
+ ⅓ cupful of dripped coffee,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of plain syrup,
+ ¾ cupful of top milk,
+ 1 egg,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of vanilla ice cream,
+ ⅛ cupful of whipped cream, or marshmallow cream.
+
+Put the dripped coffee, two pieces of ice, the egg, syrup and top milk
+in a shaker. Shake well, strain into a tall thin glass, add the ice
+cream, top with whipped cream or a tablespoonful of marshmallow cream.
+Serve with a long handled spoon.
+
+
+COFFEE FOAM
+
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 1 egg,
+ ⅛ cupful of dripped coffee,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of plain syrup.
+
+Separate the yolk and the white of the egg; whip the white dry and
+stiff; put the yolk, milk and coffee in a shaker and shake well. Pour
+the mixture into a tall glass, reserving about a quarter; mix this with
+the egg white quickly and add to the top of the glass. Serve with a
+straw or long handled spoon.
+
+
+COFFEE CREAM
+
+ ½ cupful of milk,
+ ½ cupful of thick cream,
+ ⅓ cupful of dripped coffee,
+ 1 egg,
+ 1½ tablespoonfuls of plain syrup,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the ice, milk, coffee and the yolk of the egg in the shaker and
+shake well. Beat the egg white until dry and whip the cream until
+stiff. Pour the coffee and milk mixture over the egg white, stir
+swiftly, blending thoroughly; pour into a tall glass and add the
+whipped cream, which should be sweetened slightly. Serve with a straw
+or long handled spoon.
+
+
+COFFEE MILK
+
+(Recipe dated 1845)
+
+ 1 dessert spoonful of ground coffee,
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ 2 shavings of isinglass.
+
+“Boil the coffee, milk and isinglass together for a quarter of an hour.
+Allow this to stand for ten minutes, and pour the liquid off.”
+
+It might seem wise to sweeten this slightly, as “isinglass” was the
+name applied to what we now know as “gelatine,” would suggest that a
+teaspoonful of powdered gelatine would be a sufficient quantity to use.
+
+
+COFFEE-MAPLE PUNCH
+
+ 1 cupful of strong dripped coffee,
+ 1½ pints of rich milk,
+ ¼ cupful of maple syrup (4 tablespoonfuls),
+ 1 egg,
+ Ice cream.
+
+In making drip coffee, use recipe given under coffee recipes. Put the
+egg, two tablespoonfuls of cracked ice, the maple syrup, one cupful of
+milk and the egg in a shaker, shake thoroughly, strain into a pitcher,
+add the rest of the milk, and stir well. Pour into tall glasses, top
+with a tablespoonful of ice cream to each serving. Serve with a straw
+and a long handled spoon.
+
+
+COFFEE-ROSE PUNCH
+
+ 1 quart of milk,
+ 1 cupful of strong dripped coffee,
+ ½ cupful of plain syrup,
+ 1 egg,
+ 1 teaspoonful of rose extract,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the coffee, ice, egg, syrup and a cupful of milk in a shaker.
+Shake thoroughly, pour into a pitcher, add the rest of the milk and
+the extract, stir well; fill tall thin glasses nearly full, add a
+tablespoonful of vanilla or rose ice cream and serve with a long
+handled spoon.
+
+
+COFFEE MARSHMALLOW
+
+ 1½ pints of milk,

+Put one cupful of strong dripped coffee, one cupful of milk, the syrup,
+egg and ice in a shaker; shake thoroughly and pour into a pitcher. Add
+the rest of the milk, stir and pour into tall thin glasses, filling
+them three-quarters full. Whip the cream until stiff, mix with the
+marshmallow, and fill the glasses with the mixture. Top with a candied
+cherry if desired.
+
+
+LEFT-OVER COCOA
+
+Strain any cocoa left from breakfast or luncheon and place in the
+refrigerator until needed, either as a luncheon or afternoon drink.
+
+Use parfait glasses, or any tall, narrow, stemmed glass. Pour into the
+glasses until about three-quarters full; add two tablespoonfuls of
+chocolate ice cream, top with marshmallow cream and a candied cherry.
+Serve with a long handled spoon and a straw.
+
+If this is used in the afternoon, serve little cakes with it, being
+sure that the cakes do not have chocolate icing.
+
+
+LEFT-OVER COFFEE
+
+If there is one cupful of coffee left from the breakfast, put in the
+refrigerator until luncheon, or later in the afternoon.
+
+ 1 cupful of coffee,
+ 1 tablespoonful of plain syrup (see syrups),
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ 1 egg,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the egg, syrup, ice and coffee in a shaker, shake for two minutes,
+pour into a glass pitcher with the milk, stir and serve at once.
+
+

+Sprinkle grated nutmeg on top and serve.
+
+
+RASPBERRY MILK SHAKE
+
+ ½ pint of top milk,
+ ½ teaspoonful of sugar,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of raspberry syrup,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the top milk, or plain milk mixed with a little cream into a shaker
+with the sugar, syrup and two tablespoonfuls of cracked ice. Shake well
+for two minutes, strain into a tall thin glass. A tablespoonful of
+raspberry ice cream is a desirable addition. Serve with a long handled
+spoon, if the ice cream is used, or with a straw if not.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY MILK SHAKE
+
+ ½ pint of top milk,
+ ½ teaspoonful of sugar,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of strawberry syrup,
+ Ice.
+
+Put the top milk, or plain milk mixed with a small amount of cream
+into a cocktail shaker; add the sugar, strawberry syrup, and two
+tablespoonfuls of cracked ice; shake well and strain into a tall
+glass. If one wishes, a tablespoonful of strawberry ice cream makes a
+delightful addition, as will two selected strawberries, if in season.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE MALTED MILK
+
+ 2½ teaspoonfuls of malted milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of chocolate syrup,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ Ice.
+
+Mix the malted milk with just enough hot water to blend well, stirring
+and mixing with a spoon; add a little cold milk to this, and pour it

+Put the apple juice, ice, sugar and Florida water in a shaker, shake
+well; open the shaker and add the milk, again shaking well. Strain into
+an attractive glass and serve at once.
+
+
+ORANGE MILK
+
+ 1 orange,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of orange extract,
+ Nutmeg,
+ Ice.
+
+Extract the juice from the orange and put it with the ice, sugar and
+orange extract into a shaker and shake well for two minutes. Remove the

+recap the shaker and shake thoroughly again. Strain into a tall glass
+and sprinkle with nutmeg. Serve at once.
+
+
+EGG SNOWDRIFT
+
+ 1 egg,
+ ½ pint of milk (1 cupful),
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of vanilla,
+ Nutmeg.
+
+Separate the white and yolk of the egg, whip the white until stiff,

+light and lemon colored; stir in the rest of the milk; pour this
+mixture into a tall glass, and add the slightly sweetened white, piling
+it high. Sprinkle with grated nutmeg and serve with a straw.
+
+
+SILLABUB
+
+ 1 pint of thick cream,
+ 1 cupful of powdered sugar,
+ ½ cupful of raspberry juice.
+
+It is quite possible in most large places to purchase a sillabub churn,
+which is a small tin cylinder, having a small dasher which fits loosely.
+
+Whip the cream until frothy, using the churn; sweeten to taste with the
+powdered sugar and add the raspberry juice, which should be stirred in
+swiftly and the drink served at once in tall, stemmed glasses. Serve
+with long handled spoons.
+
+If a churn is not obtainable, use a cream whisk, but stop beating at
+the frothy stage.
+
+
+SILLABUB WITH GRAPE JUICE
+
+ 1 quart of thick cream,
+ 4 egg whites,
+ 1 cupful of grape juice,
+ 1¾ cupfuls of powdered sugar.

+Chop half the ginger very fine; put it with the top milk, syrup, ice
+and the yolk of the egg into a cocktail shaker and shake for two
+minutes. Whip the white of the egg until stiff; cut the remaining half
+inch of ginger into small pieces. Strain the milk mixture into a tall
+glass, reserving a quarter cupful; mix this quickly with the beaten
+white, add to the mixture in the glass and top with the small pieces
+of ginger. Serve with a straw and a long handled spoon.
+
+
+VICHY AND MILK
+
+ ¾ cupful of rich milk,
+ Vichy.
+
+Pour three-quarters cupful of rich milk in an iced tea glass and fill
+with vichy.
+
+Physicians order this for patients who cannot take, or who do not like
+milk plain, and find that in most cases the patient can take it.
+
+
+MILK AND VICHY WITH SYRUP
+
+ ¾ cupful of milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of raspberry syrup (home-made or commercial),
+ Vichy.
+
+Pour the syrup into a tall glass (iced tea glass is the right size) and
+add the milk; stir well and fill the glass with vichy. The raspberry
+syrup will disguise both the milk taste and the vichy, in case one does
+not like either.
+
+
+ HOT MILK DRINKS
+
+
+HOT MILK
+
+For the person who is tired and who does not like plain cold milk, try
+heating the milk until just below the boiling point, adding a goodly
+sized pinch of salt and a generous sprinkling of paprika. Serve with a
+saltine or a toasted cracker.
+
+
+HOT MILK WITH CELERY SALT
+
+Heat the milk until just below the boiling point, add a generous pinch
+of salt and a sprinkling of celery salt; stir well and serve with
+toasted crackers.
+
+
+HOT MALTED MILK
+
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of malted milk,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of salt,
+ 1 cupful of milk.
+
+Blend the malted milk with enough hot water to make it smooth, add the
+salt and sugar, stirring thoroughly and add the cupful of milk, which
+should have been heated until just below the boiling point.
+
+
+HOT MALTED MILK WITH CHOCOLATE
+
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of malted milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of chocolate syrup,
+ 1 cupful of milk.
+
+Blend the malted milk with a little hot water; stir until smooth; add
+the chocolate syrup, stir, and add the milk which should be heated
+until just before the boiling point is reached.
+
+
+HOT MALTED MILK WITH COFFEE
+
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of malted milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of strong dripped coffee,
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of milk.
+
+Blend the malted milk with enough hot water to make smooth, add the
+sugar and stir until well mixed, add the coffee and the milk heated
+until the boiling point is reached.
+
+Coffee syrup may be used if desired. Use two tablespoonfuls, but do not
+use sugar with it.
+
+
+BUTTERMILK
+
+Buttermilk as a beverage is to be greatly desired because of its food
+value as well as the fact that it is a most refreshing drink.
+
+The food content is very high, having nearly all the food materials
+found in whole milk, excepting, of course, the butter fats, which have
+been removed by churning; still some fats do remain; especially is this
+true of buttermilk obtained direct from such farmers as do not use the
+most advanced methods of butter-making.
+
+We find 3 per cent. of protein, nearly 5 per cent. of carbohydrates
+in the form of milk sugar, 0.7 per cent. of mineral constituents, and
+about 0.5 per cent. of fats.
+
+Buttermilk is recommended by many successful physicians as an aid in
+intestinal disorders.
+
+Buttermilk is served at most soda fountains, and may be ordered from
+one’s dairyman, also may be obtained at some grocers’ and at all better
+class hotels.
+
+
+BUTTERMILK LEMONADE
+
+For persons not caring for buttermilk plain, one may make a lemonade
+which is healthful as well as delicious.
+
+ 1 quart of buttermilk,
+ 2 lemons,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of sugar.
+
+Extract the juice of the lemons, add the sugar and stir until
+dissolved; add the buttermilk, stirring constantly. If a smaller
+quantity is to be made it were well to use a shaker, for then the
+lemonade will be so thoroughly mixed that the results will be most
+satisfactory.
+
+
+“LACTO”
+
+The following recipe is taken from a bulletin issued by the Iowa
+Agricultural Experiment Station.
+
+ 2 quarts of buttermilk,
+ 2 pounds of sugar,
+ 2 eggs,
+ 1⅔ cupfuls of orange juice,
+ ½ cupful of lemon juice.
+
+Dissolve the sugar in the buttermilk and add the eggs, yolks and whites
+beaten separately. Stir and strain the mixture and add the fruit
+juices. Freeze as for ice cream, and pack in ice for an hour before
+serving.
+
+
+
+
+ VIII—COFFEE, CHOCOLATE, COCOA AND TEA
+
+
+A book of beverage recipes which did not give directions for making
+coffee, tea and cocoa would surely fail in its mission.
+
+I have given recipes from many countries, and by many men famous for
+coffee making, feeling sure that each reader will find the exact one to
+please the fancy of himself or herself and family.
+
+
+COFFEE
+
+Even though we as Americans are coffee drinkers to almost an alarming
+degree, it is not often that we find a cook who really makes excellent
+coffee.
+
+When purchasing coffee one must be influenced by one’s taste; whether
+all Java, whether equal parts of Mocha and Java, or whether a blend of
+one’s own or a commercial blend is used.
+
+One thing should be remembered, and that is: good coffee is served as
+soon as it is made.
+
+The pot should always be hot before the coffee is made.
+
+The late Francis B. Thurber, a coffee importer, who made coffee a study
+both as it came to this country and as it was grown in its native
+state, gives the following recipe as his idea of unexcelled coffee:
+
+To one cupful of coffee ground moderately fine add one egg with shell,
+and enough cold water to wet the grounds. Pour on one pint of boiling
+water and let it boil for fifteen minutes. Remove the pot from the fire
+and allow it to stand for three minutes to settle, then strain into a
+warm coffee pot. Serve in cups half filled with boiling milk, or if
+cream is used dilute with hot water.
+
+
+FRENCH DRIP COFFEE
+
+For _cafe noir_ use two tablespoonfuls of finely ground coffee for each
+cup. Coffee should be packed tightly as possible in the upper part of
+the French pot, and the boiling water poured through. When this has
+dripped through, redrip and serve.
+
+Parisian housekeepers, before throwing out the grounds, pour boiling
+water through the coffee again, reserving this for use the next time
+coffee is made.
+
+Much of the flavor of French coffee is said to be due to this practice.
+
+
+VIENNA COFFEE
+
+The pot required to make coffee after this method is the style with a
+cloth bag in the top.
+
+Use two level tablespoonfuls of coffee to the cup, and place in the
+bag, pouring the boiling water through.
+
+Serve with hot milk.
+
+
+ENGLISH COFFEE
+
+After the recipe of M. Soyer, a former _chef_ of the Savoy.
+
+ * * * * *
+
+Place two ounces of moderately fine ground coffee in a stew-pan, and
+without adding water, hold over the fire, stirring with a spoon until
+the coffee is very hot. Pour over the coffee a pint of boiling water
+and cover closely; remove at once from fire and let stand for five
+minutes, then strain through a cloth, heat and serve with or without
+cream.
+
+
+COFFEE, BRAZILIAN STYLE
+
+In Brazil, whence practically all of the world’s supply of coffee
+comes, the popular method is to place the coffee in a _woolen_ bag,
+which is placed in a pot and boiling water poured over it. The coffee
+is immediately poured off.
+
+
+COFFEE, BATAVIA STYLE
+
+(_As made by the Dutch coffee planters in Java_)
+
+The coffee is ground fine and packed tightly in the top of a French
+pot. The required amount of _cold_ water is poured over it and allowed
+to drip through. It requires about five hours for the process if the
+coffee is packed as tightly as it should be. The coffee is then heated
+and from three to four times its volume of hot milk added.
+
+
+TURKISH COFFEE
+
+A heaping dessertspoonful of powdered coffee is added to one small
+cupful of cold water. This is brought to a boil, and the coffee and
+grounds are poured into the cup.
+
+Turkish coffee is drunk grounds and all, without cream or sugar.
+
+
+KAFFEE “KULTUR”
+
+It is the unanimous observation of civilized travelers that good coffee
+is unobtainable in Germany. The foremost scientist of that race, the
+famous Baron von Liebig, nearly a hundred years ago wrote an exhaustive
+treatise on the subject of coffee and coffee making, and devised the
+concoction which among Germans now passes for coffee. Was it not given
+them by authority? This is von Liebig’s recipe:
+
+Put three-quarters of the amount of coffee to be used on the fire
+in boiling water; boil from ten to fifteen minutes. Then put in the
+remaining one-quarter of the coffee, cover and let it stand for five
+minutes. Stir, strain and serve with an equal amount of milk.
+
+
+EXCELLENT COFFEE
+
+Use a drip pot, one having a cloth bag. Wet the bag, place the coffee
+in this, and pack as tightly as possible around the sides and bottom.
+Pour in slowly three cupfuls of boiling water to each half cupful
+of powdered coffee. Place the pot on the back of the range, or on an
+asbestos mat with only enough flame under to keep it warm, and pour the
+water slowly.
+
+Serve with cream as soon as dripped.
+
+
+TEA
+
+Chin Hung, Chinese scholar and philosopher, to whom all the
+agricultural and medical knowledge of China is traced, once said, so I
+am told: “Tea is better than wine, for it leadeth not to intoxication,
+neither does it cause a man to say foolish things. It is better than
+water, for it doth not carry disease, neither doth it act as poison.”
+
+There are really but two kinds of teas on the market: green and black.
+The color of the tea depends on the oxidation; black tea being exposed
+to the air, or oxidized before final drying, while green tea is dried
+immediately after rolling.
+
+There are a number of different brands with which we are all familiar,
+such as Formosa, Oolong, Ceylon, English Breakfast, Orange Pekoe, and
+Flowery Pekoe.
+
+Right here I will say that if a spray of orange blossom is kept in the
+tea caddy one need not pay the price for Orange Pekoe.
+
+
+TEA MAKING
+
+Be sure that the water is boiling, and use it at once. Rinse the pot
+with hot water. Place the tea in the pot in a “ball,” and pour over the
+freshly boiled water, allowing it to stand for five minutes, then the
+tea-ball and the tea should be removed.
+
+Use a level teaspoonful of tea to one and a half cupfuls of water. I
+think most people will want to dilute this, even.
+
+
+RUSSIAN TEA
+
+“Russian tea” has a rather inflated reputation, and is not really known
+in this country as it is used there.
+
+A great amount of tea infusion is used, as the samovar is always in
+evidence, but the water is poured on the tea again and again, making a
+great amount of liquid without much strength. Sugar and lemon juice is
+added and it is drunk from a glass.
+
+
+ICED TEA
+
+One may make fresh tea and pour it over cracked ice in individual
+glasses, or one may make a rather strong solution of tea, and add
+cracked ice to it in a large pitcher, or make a weaker solution, and
+pour over cracked ice in glasses. The method must depend upon the fancy
+of one’s family, or the hostess.
+
+
+ICED TEA WITH MINT
+
+While iced tea is usually served with sugar and lemon, I am quite sure
+that in addition a spray of mint will be found most acceptable. Place
+the mint in the glass and pour the tea over.
+
+
+HOT TEA WITH MINT
+
+I find that a cupful of hot tea into which a few leaves of mint have
+been placed is most refreshing. This may be served either with or
+without sugar.
+
+
+COCOA AND CHOCOLATE
+
+It is very rare for one to serve chocolate these days, as cocoa in a
+perfected form is put up by reliable firms in this country, and most
+hostesses prefer it to chocolate, which is more difficult to prepare
+and rather richer than wise to serve to the family generally.
+
+
+COCOA
+
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 1 teaspoonful of cocoa.
+
+Bring the milk to the boiling point and pour in the cocoa moistened
+with a little warm water. Stir and allow to boil, beating with a
+cream whip for a minute or two. Pour through a strainer into a cup or
+individual pot. Multiply this amount by the number of cups to be served.
+
+
+COCOA No. 2
+
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of cocoa.
+
+Use a _porcelain_ kettle; mix the cocoa with enough hot water to make a
+smooth paste, pour the milk over it slowly, mixing constantly, so that
+there will be no lumps left undissolved. Bring to the boiling point,
+and boil for ten minutes. Strain, and serve at once. A teaspoonful
+of sweetened whipped cream added to each cup adds perceptibly to the
+acceptability. Sweeten to taste.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE
+
+ 2 cupfuls of milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of grated chocolate.
+
+Grate enough unsweetened chocolate to make two tablespoonfuls, mix
+with a little boiling water, and melt slowly over a low fire, then add
+the milk, pouring carefully, stirring while pouring. Allow this to
+boil for ten minutes and strain. Whipped cream added to each serving
+is delightful, although it makes the drink a bit too rich for most
+people. It would be unadvisable for persons given to stoutness to drink
+chocolate.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE
+
+(Recipe of 1845)
+
+ 1 inch of a cake of chocolate,
+ 1 quart of boiling water,
+ Milk.
+
+Shave the chocolate fine, pour on the boiling water; boil for twenty
+minutes, add milk to please and boil up again. Serve.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 1 cake of French chocolate,
+ 1 quart of milk.
+
+Grate the chocolate; mix with a little hot water, and stir into the
+milk which should have reached the simmering stage. Stir until the
+mixture boils; allow it to boil up once, and serve immediately. This
+may be sweetened after serving or allow two tablespoonfuls of sugar to
+the full amount. Add whipped cream if desired.
+
+
+COCOA (CRÉOLE RECIPE)
+
+ 4 tablespoonfuls of cocoa,
+ 1 quart of milk.
+
+Put the milk in a double boiler; moisten the cocoa with a little milk,
+and pour into the milk as it begins to boil, stirring constantly. Let
+it boil up once, only, and serve. Whipped cream may be used with it if
+desired.
+
+
+COCOA (OLD NEW ENGLAND RECIPE)
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of cocoa,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1½ cupfuls of milk.
+
+Mix the cocoa with a little water and pour into the full amount of
+water and allow to boil for a half hour, skim, add the milk and allow
+it to boil up again. Serve.
+
+
+
+
+ IX—DRINKS FOR INVALIDS AND SMALL CHILDREN
+
+
+I shall try to give a few helpful suggestions in this chapter for the
+making of drinks which are both appetizing and nutritious. Some are
+offered because of their nutritive value and some, like treacle, posset
+and Iceland moss, because they are a real aid in helping to ward off
+colds and some because they please the palate of the invalid or the
+child whose appetite must be catered to.
+
+
+APPLE WATER
+
+ 2 large tart apples,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ 1 pint of boiling water,
+ Lemon peel,
+ Sugar.
+
+Peel, core and slice the apples; place them in a deep bowl with the
+lemon juice, one strip of rind and as much sugar as the nurse or mother
+thinks wise, and cover with the boiling water, allowing this to stand
+covered tightly until cold. Strain, chill and serve in small glasses.
+Be sure to serve on a plate on which a fresh doylie is placed.
+
+
+APPLE TEA (FROM ROAST APPLES)
+
+(Very old recipe)
+
+ 3 apples,
+ Pint of water.
+
+Roast sour apples until tender, pour boiling water over them and let
+them stand until cold. Sweeten a little if the patient so desires.
+
+
+APPLE TEA (UP-STATE RECIPE)
+
+ 3 large tart apples,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ Sugar.
+
+Peel and slice the apples very thin, pour a pint of boiling water over
+them and boil for five minutes. Allow them to stand until cold, then
+strain off the water. Sweeten it slightly, unless the patient prefers
+the water very tart.
+
+
+ARROWROOT WITH MILK
+
+ ½ pint of milk,
+ 1 dessertspoonful of arrowroot,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar.
+
+Mix the arrowroot with a little cold milk until a smooth paste. Pour
+a half pint of boiled milk over it, pouring slowly and stirring
+constantly. Bring to the boiling point and boil for six minutes.
+(Arrowroot _must_ be well boiled). Strain, add the sugar and serve.
+
+I want to impress upon my readers the necessity of serving any drink
+intended for an invalid in the most attractive manner possible.
+
+
+ARROWROOT WITH WATER
+
+ ½ pint of water,
+ 1 dessertspoonful of arrowroot,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice.
+
+Mix the arrowroot with a little cold water, making it perfectly smooth.
+Pour the boiling water over this slowly, stirring well; cook until
+boiling, and continue for six minutes. Strain, add sugar and lemon
+juice. Serve in an attractive glass on a pretty plate on which a
+spotless doylie is laid.
+
+
+BARLEY WATER
+
+Many cannot take milk plain, but the addition of barley water adds to
+its digestibility.
+
+ 2 ounces of pearl barley,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ Sugar.
+
+Pour the water over the barley and boil slowly until there is a third
+less liquid. Strain and add sugar and serve. Barley water may be served
+alone or with milk. It is more palatable with milk.
+
+
+BARLEY WATER MADE FROM BARLEY FLOUR
+
+ 1 teaspoonful of barley flour,
+ ½ pint of water,
+ 1 pinch of salt.
+
+Mix the barley flour with a little cold water, making a smooth paste;
+pour the rest of the water on slowly, mixing and stirring constantly.
+Boil for a half hour, boiling fast all the time. Strain and add to
+milk, or add a little sugar, or if it is for an infant, it may be given
+from a nursing bottle without the sugar, between feedings, especially
+if the child is not getting sufficient nourishment from its own food.
+
+
+BLACK CURRANT TEA
+
+It is said that this tea is excellent to alleviate hoarseness, and is a
+most appetizing beverage.
+
+ 1 dessertspoonful of black currant jam,
+ ½ pint of water,
+ 1 teaspoonful of sugar.
+
+Put jam, sugar and water in an enamel dish and bring to the boiling
+point; simmer for five or six minutes. Strain and add lemon juice and
+serve hot; or chill and add a little cracked ice and serve very cold.
+
+

+ 1 cupful of water,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ 1 strip of lemon rind,
+ 1 tablespoonful of sugar,
+ Nutmeg.
+
+Boil oatmeal, water, milk and lemon rind together for ten minutes;
+remove the rind, add the lemon juice, sugar and a sprinkling of grated
+nutmeg. Serve hot. The beaten yolk of an egg may be stirred in if extra
+nourishment is needed.
+
+

+ 1 egg yolk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of sugar,
+ ¼ cupful of cold water,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of orange juice,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice,
+ Nutmeg.
+
+When the gruel is boiling, add the following mixture; beat the yolk
+of the egg with the sugar and stir in the water, fruit juices and a
+sprinkling of grated nutmeg. Strain and serve very hot.
+
+
+CREAM AND CARBONATED WATER
+
+ ½ cupful of cream,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+There are times when a patient is not allowed milk, but cream is
+permissible; under those conditions, this will be found useful as well
+as nutritious.
+
+Pour the cream in a tumbler or straight-sided, tall glass; fill the
+glass with carbonated water, using a syphon.
+
+
+MILK AND CARBONATED WATER
+
+ ½ cupful of carbonated water,
+ ¾ cupful of milk.
+
+It is a matter of taste just what carbonated water one uses: whether
+seltzer, vichy or club soda; whether poured from a bottle or a syphon.
+Put the milk in a tall glass and fill with the carbonated water.
+
+
+EGG WHITE, LEMON AND CARBONATED WATER
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+Beat the white of the egg until stiff, put it in a tall glass and add
+the lemon juice; fill the glass with the carbonated water.
+
+
+EGG YOLK, LEMON JUICE AND CARBONATED WATER
+
+ 1 egg yolk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+Beat the yolk until lemon colored, pour into a tumbler and stir in the
+lemon juice. Fill the glass with the carbonated water.
+
+
+EGG WHITE AND ORANGE JUICE
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ 1 cupful of orange juice.
+
+Extract the juice from enough oranges (two Florida oranges will usually
+prove sufficient); strain into a tall glass; whip the egg white until
+stiff, and stir it into the orange juice.
+
+If the patient does not like the taste of the egg white, it were well
+to beat the white until stiff, put it in a cocktail shaker with the
+orange juice, shake well for a minute or two and strain into a glass.
+It will be so blended that it will be very difficult to taste anything
+excepting the orange juice.
+
+
+EGG WHITE, ORANGE JUICE AND CARBONATED WATER
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ 1 orange,
+ Carbonated water.
+
+Beat the white until stiff; extract the juice from the orange, stir
+the egg in carefully and pour into a tall glass. Fill the glass with
+carbonated water.
+
+
+EGG WHITE, ORANGE JUICE AND DISTILLED WATER
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ 1 tablespoonful of orange juice,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of distilled water.
+
+If a baby is very ill and cannot retain food, this will tide it over
+until a physician can be called and prescribe.
+
+Beat the egg white until stiff, stir in the orange juice and then the
+water. Feed with a spoon.
+
+
+FLAXSEED TEA
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of whole flaxseed,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar.
+
+Mix the flaxseed with a little water, adding the remainder of the pint
+and boil for fifteen minutes. Slice a lemon in a deep bowl and add two
+tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar. Strain the flaxseed tea boiling
+hot, over this, stir and allow to stand until cold. Strain again and
+use in tablespoonful doses. This is used for cold or to relieve an
+irritated throat.
+
+
+GRUEL (ENGLISH RECIPE)
+
+ ½ pint of milk or water,
+ 1 dessertspoonful of fine oatmeal (ground, not rolled),
+ Salt or sugar.
+
+Mix the oatmeal with a little cold water in an enameled saucepan; add
+the milk or water boiling hot, and boil for ten minutes, stirring
+constantly. Strain, pressing as much of the oatmeal through the sieve
+as possible. Add either salt or sugar as the patient desires. As gruel
+induces perspiration it is best to take it after one is in bed. This is
+most satisfactory as an aid in breaking up a cold.
+
+
+INDIAN MEAL GRUEL (YELLOW CORN MEAL)
+
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of ground Indian corn meal,
+ ½ pint of water,
+ Sugar,
+ Nutmeg,
+ Cream.
+
+Mix the corn meal with enough cold water to make a smooth paste; add a
+pint of water, bring to the boiling point and boil slowly for one half
+hour,—never less; strain, add a little salt, or a little sugar if the
+patient does not like the salt. If sugar is used add a sprinkling of
+grated nutmeg, if salt is preferred, add two tablespoonfuls of cream;
+stir and serve at once.
+
+
+OATMEAL GRUEL
+
+ 4 tablespoonfuls of oatmeal (ground, not rolled),
+ 3 pints of water,
+ ½ cupful of raisins,
+ Salt,
+ Sugar.
+
+Wet the oatmeal with a little cold water, pour over it three pints of
+boiling water, and boil gently for two hours. Strain, add a sprinkle
+of salt and enough sugar to satisfy the patient. A very little mace or
+nutmeg may be added, and, if one wishes, a half cupful of raisins may
+be put in as soon as the boiling point is reached. If raisins are used
+it is not at all necessary to use sugar, for there is plenty of sugar
+in them to make the gruel most palatable.
+
+
+RICE GRUEL
+
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of ground rice,
+ ½ pint of water,
+ Salt,
+ Cream (if allowed).
+
+Blend the rice with a little cold water, add the half pint of boiling
+water and boil for five minutes. Season with a little salt, and
+if allowed add three tablespoonfuls of thick cream, or if milk is
+preferred use that.
+
+
+POTATO GRUEL (ENGLISH RECIPE)
+
+ 2 large potatoes,
+ Milk.
+
+Steam two large mealy or floury potatoes, press through a fine sieve,
+and add hot milk slowly, stirring and blending until the consistency of
+thin cream. Salt to taste and serve.
+
+
+CARROT GRUEL
+
+ 2 large, or 4 small carrots,
+ Milk.
+
+Boil the carrots until very tender, press through a fine sieve and
+add hot milk slowly, being sure to mix well and smoothly. When the
+consistency of cream is reached, add a little salt and serve.
+
+An English physician recommends this as an aid in treating scurvy in
+children.
+
+
+IRISH OR ICELAND MOSS
+
+ ½ ounce of Irish moss,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ Lemon juice,
+ Sugar.
+
+Wash the moss, put it in a covered dish and allow it to stand in enough
+water to cover over night. Throw off this water and cover with a pint
+of fresh water; simmer for one hour, strain, add a tablespoonful of
+lemon juice and a little sugar, being sure that it is not too sweet.
+
+Irish moss is a sea weed and is rather rich in mucilage, iodine and
+sulphur, and is given as an aid in treatment for colds, especially when
+there is a cough.
+
+
+HOME MADE KOUMISS
+
+(Recipe from an English Physician)
+
+Boil fresh milk, and when nearly cold put into quart bottles, leaving
+room to shake. Add ½ ounce of crushed lump sugar, a very small piece
+of compressed yeast—about one twenty-fourth of the ordinary yeast
+cake—cork, tie down the cork unless a patent stopper is used; lay the
+bottles on the side, and shake twice daily. If the weather is hot this
+may be used on the fifth day, if cool, on the sixth, if very cold, on
+the seventh.
+
+
+LINSEED TEA
+
+ 1 ounce of whole linseed,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ ½ ounce of liquorice,
+ ½ ounce of rock candy,
+ ½ lemon.
+
+Wash, the linseed and simmer with the lemon rind and water for, a half
+hour. Take from the fire, add liquorice and rock candy and stir until
+dissolved. Strain and add the lemon juice. Useful in treatment of colds.
+
+
+PRUNE TEA
+
+ 2 ounces of prunes,
+ 1 pint of boiling water,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice.
+
+Be sure to select California prunes, for then no sugar will be needed.
+
+Wash the prunes and put in a saucepan with the water; simmer for an
+hour, cut the prunes while in the water, then strain through a fine
+sieve, pressing some of the pulp through. Add the lemon juice and
+serve to the patient in a wine glass. This is excellent in cases of
+constipation.
+
+
+RICE WATER
+
+ 1 ounce of best Sea Island rice,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ Salt.
+
+There is no better rice grown than that which we get from the islands
+which lie in the Atlantic off the state of South Carolina. This is
+large full rice and is by far the most desirable for use for invalids
+and children.
+
+Wash the rice in cold water, rubbing it well between the hands. Allow
+water to run over it until the water runs clear. Throw the washed rice
+in a quart of cold water, and cook rapidly until it boils hard. Then
+cook slower over a lower fire until rather mushy. Two hours is not too
+long for the boiling. Strain through a fine sieve. Add a little salt,
+or if the patient greatly prefers, and sugar will not harm, sweeten
+slightly.
+
+This is used in cases of dysentery with salt only, as a drink.
+
+
+RICE MILK
+
+ 1 ounce of rice (Sea Island),
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ Salt or sugar.
+
+Wash the rice as directed in the foregoing recipe, and put into a
+saucepan with the milk. Boil for one hour. Add salt to taste or a very
+little sugar. The salt is preferable. Do not strain this.
+
+
+TOAST WATER
+
+ 1 full sized crust of bread,
+ 1 pint of water.
+
+Select the crust of the bread, cut at least an inch thick; toast or dry
+it until brown in the oven, being sure that it does not burn or scorch,
+but is thoroughly brown. Put this in a deep bowl and pour one pint of
+cold water over it, allowing it to stand for one hour. Strain and use.
+One may season with a little salt or a sprinkling of celery salt. It
+may be served either hot or cold.
+
+
+TREACLE (MOLASSES) POSSET
+
+(English recipe)
+
+ ½ pint of milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of molasses,
+ ½ lemon.
+
+Put the milk into a saucepan, and bring to the boiling point; add the
+molasses and lemon juice. This will curdle. Strain through a fine
+cloth. Use hot or cold.
+
+
+THICK MILK
+
+ ½ ounce of baked flour,
+ ½ pint of milk,
+ Sugar.
+
+Put a half ounce of flour in a dish and put into the oven, allowing it
+to brown slightly. Blend it with the milk, stirring a few drops of milk
+into the flour at a time, until all the milk is used. Boil for five
+minutes, stirring constantly. Sweeten a trifle and use.
+
+This is given to patients at times when they are on a liquid diet and a
+change is needed. A little nutmeg will again change the taste.
+
+
+LEMON WHEY
+
+ ½ pint of milk,
+ ½ lemon,
+ Sugar.
+
+Boil the milk and add the juice from a half lemon. It will, of course,
+curdle. Strain through a fine cloth; sweeten slightly and use.
+
+
+MILK WHEY
+
+(English recipe)
+
+ 1 pint of sweet milk,
+ ½ pint of buttermilk.
+
+Bring the milk to the boiling point, add the buttermilk and boil for a
+minute. Strain and use.
+
+
+MEAT BROTHS AND TEAS
+
+
+BEEF TEA OR BROTH
+
+ ½ pound of beef,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of salt,
+ ½ pint of water.
+
+Select a piece of beef which has little or no fat, preferably from
+the top round; remove any fats, and cut into strips, then cut across,
+shredding the meat. Put the shredded meat, salt and _cold_ water in an
+enamel saucepan and allow it to soak for fifteen minutes, then place
+over a slow fire. Cook until the meat is white and the juice or broth a
+deep red-brown. Strain through a fine strainer, pressing the beef hard.
+Remove any particles of grease by drawing a piece of brown paper over
+the top. Serve hot. Be sure to serve in an attractive cup on a doylie.
+Please the eye and the appetite is more likely to be tempted.
+
+
+BEEF TEA (MADE IN A JAR)
+
+ 1 pound of top round,
+ 1 pint of cold water,
+ ½ teaspoonful of salt.
+
+Remove the fat, shred the meat finely and put into a glass jar. A two
+quart glass can such as is used for preserving is desirable. Fasten the
+cover, whether a screw-top or patent fastener, and place in a deep pan
+of boiling water. Keep the water simmering for at least three hours.
+Stir the beef occasionally. Strain and remove any fat by drawing a
+paper over the top. Serve.
+
+
+BEEF TEA (RAW BEEF)
+
+ 2 ounces of top round,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of cold water,
+ Pinch of salt.
+
+Cut all the fat and skin from the beef, and cut into shreds; place in
+a glass dish with the water and salt, cover and place in a cold place
+and allow to stand for two hours. Strain and press out all the juice
+possible. Serve a teaspoonful or two at a time. This will not keep, so
+only a very small amount should be made at a time.
+
+
+BEEF EXTRACT (RAW)
+
+ ½ pound of top round,
+ Salt.
+
+This extract is given when nourishment must be pushed and can only be
+given in small quantities. It is invaluable in cases of rickets and
+scurvy in children.
+
+There are small meat presses on the market, which are made for the
+purpose of extracting the blood and may be purchased at any large
+department store where there is a housekeeping department.
+
+Put the meat in a pan and sear it quickly; then cut into small pieces
+and place in the meat press; by turning the screw-top extract the blood
+or juice, and pour into a glass. After all the blood is extracted, salt
+slightly and feed with a spoon.
+
+
+BEEF TEA WITH EGG
+
+ ¼ pint of beef tea,
+ 1 egg yolk,
+ Salt.
+
+Beat the egg yolk until a light yellow and stir into a half cupful of
+hot beef tea. Add a trifle of salt if necessary.
+
+
+BEEF TEA FOR CONVALESCENTS
+
+ 1 pound of top round,
+ 1 pint of water,
+ 1 piece of carrot,
+ 1 piece of turnip,
+ 1 spray of parsley,
+ 1 tiny pinch of thyme,
+ Small slice of onion,
+ Salt.
+
+Remove all fat from the meat, cut the vegetables into tiny pieces,
+shred the meat and put all in a glass jar with the herbs and salt.
+Fasten the top and place in a deep pan nearly full of hot water and
+cook slowly for three hours. Strain and remove any fat which may have
+been left.
+
+
+MUTTON TEA
+
+ ½ pound of lean mutton,
+ ½ pint of water,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of salt.
+
+Select the juicy part of the neck, remove as much fat as possible,
+cut into tiny pieces, put into a saucepan with cold water and salt.
+Simmer gently until the meat turns white and the tea or broth a rich
+red-brown. Strain, remove all fat by passing a paper over the top. If
+it is not possible to remove the fat in this way, cool the broth and
+remove the fat, then reheat. To reheat place the dish holding the broth
+in a pan of hot water. Do not allow broths or teas to boil.
+
+
+CHICKEN BROTH
+
+ ½ chicken (small fowl is as desirable as a chicken),
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1 tablespoonful of rice,
+ ½ teaspoonful of chopped parsley,
+ ½ teaspoonful of salt.
+
+Cut the chicken into small pieces, and break the bones. Put the meat
+and bones into a saucepan with the cold water, salt and rice. (The rice
+may be omitted if preferred.) Simmer for three hours, strain, sprinkle
+with parsley and serve.
+
+This broth may be made leaving the rice out until cooked, then strain,
+return to the saucepan, reheat to the boiling point, add the rice
+and cook for twenty-five minutes. It depends entirely on whether the
+patient may have the rice whole or cooked soft enough to pass through a
+fine sieve.
+
+
+MUTTON BROTH (WITH BARLEY)
+
+ 1 pound of mutton (neck or breast),
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1 tablespoonful of barley (pearl),
+ Salt,
+ Chopped parsley.
+
+Remove all fats possible and cut the mutton into small pieces. Put
+into the saucepan with the _cold_ water and salt, bring to the boiling
+point, skim, add the barley and simmer for three hours. Strain and
+sprinkle with the chopped parsley. If this broth is intended for a
+convalescent, it need not be strained; remove the meat and bones only,
+leaving the well cooked barley.
+
+
+OYSTER BROTH
+
+ 6 selected oysters,
+ ½ cupful of milk or broth,
+ 1 tablespoonful of cream.
+
+Put the oysters, their liquor, and the milk or broth (preferably the
+milk) in a saucepan, and bring to the boiling point. Simmer for _one
+minute_, and strain. The oysters may be chopped finely and returned to
+the broth or not, as liked. It would seem wise in most instances to
+remove the beards and gristle first and chop only the soft parts.
+
+
+CLAM BROTH
+
+Scrub the clams in cold water and place over a hot fire in a large
+kettle and heat until the shells open. Place two thicknesses of cheese
+cloth over a deep dish and strain. Season the broth and serve.
+
+
+CLAM JUICE (COMMERCIAL)
+
+There is a clam juice on the market,—a “clam concentrate”—which makes a
+satisfactory broth if it is not possible to obtain fresh clams.
+
+ 1 teaspoonful of concentrated clam juice,
+ ⅓ cupful of boiling water,
+ Seasoning to suit.
+
+Put the concentrated juice in a cup and pour the boiling water over it,
+stirring until well mixed. Season to taste.
+
+One may use milk if one wishes instead of water, or may use half water
+and half milk.
+
+
+COMMERCIAL BEEF TEA OR BROTH
+
+There are several manufacturers who put out concentrated beef extracts,
+some in cubes, and some in a sort of paste form. If one uses the cubes,
+one cube is used to each three-quarters of a cupful of boiling water.
+Season with salt, or with salt and celery salt.
+
+If one wishes, a drop or two of onion juice may be added to this beef
+tea, as well as salt and celery salt.
+
+

+
+
+ XI—SUNDAES
+
+
+Because of the popularity of sundaes, and the preference shown by many
+for them instead of sweet or fruit drinks, I shall give a goodly number
+of suggestions for making these delightful concoctions.
+
+I shall give recipes for sauces to be used on them, as well as
+suggestions for preserving and drying cherries.
+
+While the recipes given for syrups, both plain and flavored, are given
+primarily for the making of punches, bowls, cups and the like, there
+is no reason why these should not be used on sundaes, in fact there is
+every reason why they should.
+
+It is also possible and most advisable to use the syrup from canned or
+preserved fruits on sundaes, as there is almost always more syrup in a
+jar of fruit than is needed, and it may be used to advantage in this
+way.
+
+One may make marshmallow cream or purchase it ready for use. One candy
+manufacturer in New York puts out an excellent article at a very
+reasonable price.
+
+While one almost invariably sees pecan nuts used for topping sundaes,
+it is not at all essential that they should be; walnuts, either
+domestic or English, may be used with equal success. If obtainable, try
+butternuts broken in pieces.
+
+One may use either the short-stemmed, wide-topped sherbet glasses or
+the wide long stemmed champagne glasses for service. These are equally
+attractive.
+
+Select small plates, place a doylie on each and place the glass on
+that. Lay a small spoon on the plate.
+
+In most instances, a rounded spoonful of ice cream is placed in the
+glass first, then the syrup or sauce is poured over that, and nuts, or
+chopped fruits, or both are then added.
+
+One may use any flavor ice cream one desires, and because of this I
+have given a number of recipes for ice creams, not only for making
+sundaes because they, too, quench the thirst.
+
+There is one important thing to remember when making sundaes; they must
+_never_ look mussy! Even though a number of different things are used
+in the making, it is not at all necessary to use such haste that they
+will not look appetizing.
+
+After the cream is in the glass, pour the syrup or sauce over
+carefully, being sure not to drip it; add the next thing just as
+carefully as the first, and if nuts are to top the dish, add only
+enough to stay where they are meant to stay—_on the top_. If the nuts
+fall to the service plate the whole service is spoiled in appearance.
+
+An attractive service makes for the success of the hostess.

+
+ XII—SAUCES FOR SUNDAES
+
+
+Because it would seem folly to give suggestions for sundaes without
+recipes for making the sauces to be served on them, I am giving several.
+
+While these sauces are given here to use on sundaes, there is no good
+reason why they may not be used for puddings and desserts.
+
+
+HEAVY FUDGE SAUCE
+
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar,
+ 2 squares of chocolate,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 1¼ tablespoonfuls of butter,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla.
+
+Melt the chocolate, putting it into a double boiler; add the milk and
+cook directly over the fire until it is well blended; add the sugar and
+cook slowly until smooth. Keep hot in the double boiler or in a chafing
+dish until ready to serve.
+
+This should be the consistency to pour readily.
+
+
+MARSHMALLOW SAUCE
+
+ ¾ cupful of sugar,
+ ¼ cupful of milk,
+ ½ pound of marshmallows,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of water.
+
+Boil the sugar and milk in a double boiler for about six or seven
+minutes, until it spins a thread. Allow this to become luke warm, then
+beat until thick and white. Put the double boiler back on the fire and
+stir until thin enough to pour. Melt the marshmallows and water, pour
+the syrup over them, beating constantly. Keep warm until ready to
+serve.
+
+
+MARSHMALLOW SAUCE NO. 2
+
+ ½ pound of marshmallows,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ ⅓ cupful of boiling water,
+ 1 egg white,
+ ¾ cupful of Maraschino cherries.
+
+Into the upper part of the double boiler turn half a pound of
+marshmallows and melt them slowly until they will pour readily.
+Dissolve one cupful of sugar in one-third of a cupful of boiling water
+and cook without stirring (after it begins to bubble hard) for eight
+minutes. Pour gently on to the stiffly whipped white of one egg and
+beat steadily until thick and creamy. Add the marshmallow syrup and a
+small cupful of drained and chopped Maraschino cherries.
+
+
+MARSHMALLOW SAUCE WITH SYRUP
+
+ ½ pound of marshmallows,
+ 1 cupful of corn syrup,
+ ¼ cupful of hot water,
+ 1 egg white,
+ Chopped cherries.
+
+Melt the marshmallows in a double boiler. Boil the syrup and water
+together until bubbling hot, then pour slowly on the stiffly
+beaten white of the egg. Beat until creamy and thick, then add the
+marshmallows. Chop a tablespoonful of candied Maraschino cherries and
+add to the sauce.
+
+
+MAPLE FUDGE SAUCE
+
+ 1 pound of maple sugar,
+ 1½ pints of rich milk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of butter,
+ A pinch of soda.
+
+Cook the maple sugar (which should have been grated), milk and soda
+until it boils; continue to boil for five minutes, stir in the butter
+and keep hot over boiling water. A double boiler or a chafing dish
+would be the best means of doing so.
+
+
+HOT MAPLE SAUCE
+
+ 1 cupful of thick maple syrup,
+ ⅓ cupful of cream,
+ Chopped nuts.
+
+Butter the inside of a granite saucepan and add a cupful of thick maple
+syrup and one-third of a cupful of cream. Then boil until the syrup
+forms a soft ball when tested in cold water. Pour while hot, over each
+portion of cream and sprinkle thickly with chopped nut meats.
+
+
+BERKSHIRE HOT MAPLE SAUCE
+
+ 1 cupful of maple syrup,
+ 1 tablespoonful of butter,
+ ¾ cupful of top milk.
+
+Put the butter in a saucepan and when melted stir in the maple syrup.
+Then when hot add the top milk slowly; boil until it begins to thicken
+slightly, then cool partially and serve.
+
+
+PRUNE SAUCE
+
+ 1 cupful of well cooked prunes,
+ 4 or 5 candied green-gage plums,
+ 6 candied cherries,
+ 1 orange,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ ⅓ cupful of sugar,
+ ½ cupful of chopped nut meats.
+
+Cut the prunes in small pieces; peel the orange, separate into sections
+and remove the membrane; then cut into pieces; chop the plums and
+cherries and mix the fruit. Add lemon juice and sugar, stir and allow
+to stand for a half hour. Place a generous spoonful on each serving of
+cream; top with a spoonful of nuts.
+
+
+HONEY SAUCE
+
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of butter,
+ 1 tablespoonful of cornstarch,
+ ½ cupful of honey,
+ ½ cupful of hot water.
+
+Melt the butter and blend with the cornstarch. Add honey and hot water.
+Cook until it thickens and serve hot.
+
+
+COFFEE SAUCE WITH SYRUP
+
+ 1 cupful of strong coffee,
+ 1 cupful of corn syrup,
+ 2 egg yolks,
+ 1 cupful of cream, sweetened.
+
+Heat the coffee until the boiling point is reached; add the egg yolks
+beaten light, then the syrup; cook until it begins to thicken but do
+not allow it to boil. Take from the fire, add the cream, whipped stiff,
+and a few drops of vanilla.
+
+
+COFFEE SAUCE WITH SUGAR
+
+ 2 eggs,
+ ¼ cupful of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of strong coffee,
+ 1 cupful of whipped cream,
+ Sugar (powdered.)
+
+Beat the yolks of the eggs with one-fourth cupful of sugar. Add one
+cupful of strong coffee (strained) and cook slowly over hot water,
+stirring constantly until well thickened. Do not boil. Remove from the
+fire and, when cold, mix 1 cupful of sweetened whipped cream which has
+been flavored with a few drops of vanilla extract.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE SAUCE WITH SYRUP
+
+ 1 cupful of syrup,
+ 1½ squares of chocolate,
+ ⅓ cupful of water,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of vanilla.
+
+Melt the chocolate and pour on gradually the hot syrup, prepared by
+adding water to corn syrup and boiling for three minutes. Cool slightly
+and flavor with vanilla.
+
+
+CHOCOLATE CARAMEL SAUCE
+
+ 2 ounces of unsweetened chocolate,
+ 2 cupfuls of dark brown sugar,
+ 1 tablespoonful of butter,
+ ¾ cupful of rich top milk or cream,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla extract.
+
+If an agate boiler is used, and a very little butter heated in it, and
+allowed to run over the surface used, the sauce will not stick to the
+pan.
+
+Shave the chocolate and melt in the buttered upper part of the double
+boiler, and add the sugar gradually; mix well, and add the butter; cook
+until well blended and pour in the top milk or cream slowly. Cook over
+a very low fire until it forms a soft ball if tried in cold water. Take
+from the fire, add the vanilla, and use over vanilla ice cream.
+
+If it is not to be used at once keep it hot in the double boiler.
+
+
+FRUIT SAUCE
+
+ ½ cupful of dates,
+ ½ cupful of Maraschino cherries,
+ ½ cupful of figs,
+ ½ cupful of chopped almonds,
+ ½ cupful of honey,
+ ½ cupful of syrup from the cherries.
+
+Remove the pits from the dates and cut into small pieces, chop the
+cherries, cut the figs into small pieces and chop (or break into
+pieces) the nuts. Mix, and pour the syrup of the cherries and the honey
+over the mixture, allowing to stand until thoroughly blended. Keep near
+the ice if possible.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY SAUCE
+
+ 1 quart of berries,
+ 1 cupful of powdered sugar.
+
+Wash and hull the berries, mash with a silver fork, add the sugar, stir
+well, and allow to stand for two hours in a cold place.
+
+
+ORANGE SAUCE
+
+ 3 oranges,
+ 2 egg whites,
+ 1 cupful of powdered sugar.
+
+Grate the rind of half an orange and add to it the juice of three
+oranges. Whip the whites of the eggs until dry and stiff, add the sugar
+and then the orange juice.
+
+This, heaped on ice cream, is as delightful as it is unusual.
+
+
+TUTTI FRUTTI SAUCE
+
+ ½ cupful of chopped candied cherries,
+ ½ cupful of chopped seeded raisins,
+ ½ cupful of chopped figs,
+ ½ cupful of dates,
+ Mix with maple syrup.
+
+Chop the different fruits and mix enough maple syrup to blend but not
+enough to make a great deal of liquid.
+
+
+ CANNED, PRESERVED AND DRIED CHERRIES
+
+ (For use in making sundaes)
+
+There may be several reasons why one prefers to use home-canned or
+dried cherries instead of using those commercially prepared. To can
+them at home, the first thing to remember is; the fruit should be well
+ripened and the cherries will be far better if it is possible to obtain
+them directly from the trees. If one is fortunate enough to be able to
+get them from the trees, see that they hang at least four days after
+they are considered ripe, for they will be larger, riper and sweeter.
+
+Another thing to bear in mind, is that cherries should be simmered and
+never boiled.
+
+It is quite possible to use any canned cherries one may have, or may
+purchase, in making sundaes, or those put up commercially for this
+purpose alone.
+
+
+CANNED CHERRIES
+
+The amount of fruit depends upon the desire of the hostess, for she may
+have a few she wishes to can, or a great many; the process is the same.
+
+ Cherries,
+ 2 cupfuls of water,
+ 1 cupful of sugar.
+
+Wash and pit the cherries, put them in sterilized jars, adjust the
+rubbers (new ones), and pour over the boiling syrup, made of the sugar
+and water boiled. Pour in enough syrup to nearly overflow. Partially
+seal the jar and place in a sterilizer, either commercial or home-made,
+and nearly cover with boiling water. It has been found satisfactory by
+the writer to allow the water to reach just _below_ the top. Sterilize
+for sixteen minutes.
+
+
+CANNED CHERRIES WITHOUT SYRUP
+
+If one cares to can the cherries without using syrup, pour plain
+boiling water over the cherries in the jars, in place of the syrup and
+sterilize for a half hour. After sterilization, complete the seal,
+invert to test for leakage, allow to cool, wrap in dark paper and store.
+
+
+PRESERVED CHERRIES
+
+Remove the pits from the largest cherries obtainable; allow a pound of
+sugar and one cupful of water to each pound of fruit. Melt the sugar
+in the water, let it come to a boil and skim thoroughly. Then add the
+cherries and allow them to simmer for twenty minutes. Take out with a
+skimmer, pack into sterilized hot jars and boil down the syrup until
+quite thick. Fill the jars to overflowing and seal air-tight, using new
+rubbers and hot covers.
+
+
+PRESERVES AND SHRUB FROM THE SAME CHERRIES
+
+Stone the cherries and cover with vinegar. Stand in a cool place for
+twenty-four hours and drain off the fruit juice and the vinegar. To
+each pint of juice add a scant pound of sugar, simmer for twenty-five
+minutes and bottle air-tight. Put the drained cherries in a stone crock
+with alternate layers of granulated sugar, allowing three-quarters of a
+pound of sugar for each pint of fruit. Keep the crock covered and in a
+cool place. Every eighteen hours stir the fruit and sugar carefully for
+a period of eight days. The uncooked preserves can be put in small jars
+and paraffined, but they need not be sealed air-tight.
+
+
+MOCK MARASCHINO CHERRIES
+
+Select the largest sized cherries one can find and remove the pits,
+saving all the juice. Measure fruit and juice and allow an equal
+amount of sugar. Drain the cherries and set on the ice. Put the juice
+and sugar into a preserving kettle, cook to a thick syrup and add the
+cherries. Simmer for fifteen minutes. Drain off half the cherry syrup,
+add an equal amount of white grape juice, bring quickly to the boil and
+seal as for preserved fruit.
+
+
+DRIED CHERRIES
+
+The larger the cherry the more satisfactory if dried to use for sundaes.
+
+Wash, stem and pit the cherries; spread in thin layers on a drying
+tray. (Commercial driers are inexpensive and very satisfactory.) Dry
+from two to four hours, starting at 110 degrees F. Condition them by
+placing in composition or paper boxes and pouring them from box to box
+every day for four days. This is to insure even drying. If too moist,
+return to the drier for a short time, and again pour into the boxes,
+and again “condition” them.
+
+
+
+
+ XIII—ICE CREAMS, SORBETS, SHERBETS, WATER ICES AND GRANITS
+
+
+Giving recipes for ice creams and the like in a book given to telling
+of beverages would seem a queer conceit, were it not for the fact
+that ice creams, sherbets and water ices are often used to quench the
+thirst; this is my reason and my only excuse, should an excuse be
+needed.
+
+
+VANILLA ICE CREAM
+
+ 1 quart of cream,
+ ¾ cupful of honey,
+ 1 cupful of milk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of vanilla extract.
+
+Heat the milk, add the honey, and stir until melted and thoroughly
+mixed. Allow to cool somewhat; add the cream, vanilla and a pinch of
+salt (a very small pinch), and freeze.
+
+
+VANILLA ICE CREAM (French)
+
+ 2 cupfuls of scalded milk,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 3 eggs,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of salt,
+ 1 quart of thin cream,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of vanilla.
+
+Make a custard of the first four ingredients. Strain and cool the
+custard and add to it the cream and vanilla. Freeze until firm, then
+pack in ice and salt.
+
+
+INEXPENSIVE ICE CREAM
+
+ 1¼ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 quart of milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of cornstarch,
+ 3 eggs,
+ Desired extract and a pinch of salt.
+
+Heat the milk, add the syrup and the cornstarch, which should have been
+moistened with a little cold milk; cook until it begins to thicken, add
+a pinch of salt and the beaten eggs. Boil, strain, cool and freeze.
+
+With this as a foundation one may add any flavoring desired, or any
+crushed fruit. Coffee or chocolate may also be used. Very strong coffee
+is needed, but the amount of milk should be reduced in proportion.
+
+
+PISTACHIO ICE CREAM
+
+ 2 cupfuls of scalded milk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of flour,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 egg,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of salt,
+ 1 quart thin cream,
+ 1 tablespoonful of vanilla extract,
+ 1 teaspoonful of almond extract.
+
+Mix flour, sugar and milk, add egg, slightly beaten, and milk
+gradually. Cook until it has the consistency of a soft custard. Let
+this custard cool and add cream and flavoring, color with leaf green;
+strain and freeze.
+
+
+ORANGE ICE CREAM
+
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of water,
+ 2 cupfuls of orange juice,
+ ¼ cupful of candied orange peel,
+ 1 cupful of cream,
+ 2 egg yolks,
+ 1 cupful of double cream.
+
+Boil the water and sugar eight minutes. Add the orange juice. Make a
+custard of the cream and egg yolks. Cool and add to the first mixture
+with the heavy cream beaten stiff. Freeze. When nearly frozen add the
+orange peel. The dish is given a “different” look if it is served with
+candied orange peel.
+
+
+MARSHMALLOW ICE CREAM
+
+ 1½ cupfuls of milk,
+ ½ cupful of heavy cream,
+ ⅓ cupful of sugar,
+ 1 junket tablet,
+ 1 tablespoonful cold water,
+ 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of marshmallow cream,
+ 1 tablespoonful of vanilla.
+
+Put milk, cream and sugar into the can of freezer. Set in hot water
+until luke warm, add junket tablet dissolved in cold water, and allow
+to stand until firm. Add vanilla and marshmallow cream, mix thoroughly
+and freeze, using three parts ice to one part salt.
+
+
+FROZEN PUDDING
+
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 3 eggs,
+ 1 teaspoonful of cornstarch,
+ ⅛ teaspoonful of salt,
+ 1 pint thin cream,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla,
+ 1 cupful of diced marshmallows,
+ 1 cupful of thinly sliced peaches,
+ 1 cupful of shredded pineapple,
+ 1 cupful crystallized cherries.
+
+Beat the yolks of the eggs until very light, add sugar, cornstarch and
+salt. Beat into this the scalded milk, place in a double boiler and
+cook until it will coat the spoon. Remove from the fire and when cold
+add the cream, vanilla and stiffly beaten whites of the eggs. Pour into
+a freezer, add the marshmallows and fruit and freeze until firm, then
+pack and allow to stand for several hours.
+
+
+COCOANUT ICE CREAM
+
+ 4 cupfuls of milk,
+ 2½ tablespoonfuls of cornstarch,
+ 2 eggs,
+ ¾ cupfuls of honey,
+ 1 teaspoonful of vanilla extract,
+ 1 cupful of chopped fresh cocoanut or shredded cocoanut,
+ Preserved cherries,
+ Milk or water.
+
+Heat the milk in a double boiler. Blend the cornstarch with a little
+milk or water and add to the hot milk and stir until it begins to
+thicken. Add the beaten eggs and honey, cook for a minute or two; add
+vanilla and cocoanut. Freeze, serve in attractive tall stemmed goblets;
+top with cocoanut and cherries.
+
+
+ROSE ICE CREAM (with condensed milk)
+
+ 2 cans of condensed milk,
+ 3½ cupfuls of water,
+ 2 teaspoonfuls of rose extract,
+ 3 tablespoonfuls of cornstarch,
+ ¼ cupful of milk, or water,
+ 1 teaspoonful of vanilla,
+ 1 teaspoonful of orange extract,
+ Red vegetable coloring.
+
+Mix one can of condensed milk with two cupfuls of water; add the rose
+extract and enough red vegetable coloring to make the color desired.
+Strain and freeze.
+
+Boil the remaining water (1½ cupfuls) and stir in the other can of
+condensed milk. Moisten the cornstarch with a little milk or water,
+blend with the milk and water, stirring constantly for five or six
+minutes. Allow to cool, add flavoring, strain and freeze. Place these
+creams in separate layers in a wet mold, place the cover on securely,
+pack and freeze. This should stand at least two hours.
+
+
+PINEAPPLE ICE CREAM
+
+ 1½ cupfuls of hot milk,
+ 2 eggs,
+ ½ cupful of honey,
+ 2 cupfuls of shredded pineapple,
+ 1 cupful of cream.
+
+Beat the eggs, mix with the milk and honey; cook until smooth, stirring
+constantly. Allow to cool, add cream and freeze. When serving this
+cream, a generous spoonful of sweetened whipped cream is a delightful
+addition.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM
+
+This is not difficult to make and approaches the flavor of the fresh
+fruit more nearly than most creams in which fresh strawberries are used.
+
+ ½ pint of thick cream,
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of cornstarch,
+ 2 eggs,
+ 3 tablespoonfuls of sugar,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla,
+ 1 cupful of strawberry jam,
+ Small pinch of salt.
+
+Make a boiled custard of the milk, cornstarch, salt and the beaten
+eggs. Add the vanilla, cool and fold in a half pint of cream which has
+been whipped until stiff. Put in freezer and freeze slowly for five or
+six minutes; open the freezer and stir in a full cupful of strawberry
+jam. Re-cover and continue to freeze until firm.
+
+
+GREEN TEA ICE CREAM
+
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ 1 tablespoonful of green tea,
+ 1 pint of cream,
+ ¾ cupful of sugar,
+ 3 eggs,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla.
+
+Pour one pint of boiling milk over one tablespoonful of green tea, and
+allow to stand on the back of the range or on an asbestos mat over
+a low gas flame for five minutes; strain through a double thickness
+of fine cheesecloth. To this add the cream, beaten eggs, sugar and
+vanilla, and stir until it thickens. Add a little green vegetable
+color. Place in a cold dish and allow to cool. Freeze, repack, and
+allow to stand until ready for use.
+
+
+EASY PEACH ICE CREAM
+
+ 1 pint of peach pulp and the juice,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 quart of cream.
+
+Crush the peaches, using enough to make a pint of pulp. Save all the
+juice. Add the sugar to the juice and pulp; then add the cream, whipped
+as stiff as possible. Blend and freeze.
+
+
+ SOME UNUSUAL FROZEN DAINTIES
+
+
+COFFEE PARFAIT
+
+ 1 pint of thick cream,
+ 1½ cupfuls of confectioner’s sugar,
+ ½ cupful of strong coffee,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla,
+ ½ teaspoonful of gelatine,
+ Milk.
+
+Dissolve the gelatine in two tablespoonfuls of milk, and pour the hot
+coffee over, stirring well; add sugar and vanilla. Fold in the cream,
+whipped stiff, pour into the freezer, pack in ice and salt and allow to
+stand for at least four hours.
+
+Serve in attractive tall glasses, topped with a generous spoonful of
+sweetened whipped cream.
+
+
+APRICOT PARFAIT
+
+ 1½ cupfuls of crushed apricots (canned or fresh),
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice,
+ ¾ cupful of sugar,
+ 1 teaspoonful of gelatine,
+ 2 eggs,
+ 1 cupful of thick cream.
+
+Mash the fruit and press through a fine sieve, add the lemon juice and
+sugar and heat until it reaches the boiling point, stirring constantly;
+beat the yolks of the eggs until very light and add slowly to the fruit
+mixture while hot; return to the fire and cook until a custard-like
+consistency. Dissolve the gelatine in a very little water and add
+to the fruit and eggs; allow to cool; chill; beat the whites of the
+eggs until stiff, and the cream until firm, and add both to the fruit
+mixture.
+
+Pour into a mold, pack in ice and salt and allow to stand for several
+hours; serve in tall narrow glasses.
+
+
+CHERRY PARFAIT
+
+ 1 cupful of thick cream,
+ ⅔ cupful of sugar,
+ ⅓ cupful of water,
+ 2 egg whites,
+ 1 tablespoonful of gelatine,
+ ¾ cupful of marshmallows,
+ 1¼ cupfuls of stoned cherries (canned red cherries may be used),
+ 1 cupful of cherry juice,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice.
+
+Cut the marshmallows into very small pieces, and cut the cherries in
+halves; combine these with the cherry juice and allow to stand for two
+hours.
+
+Boil the sugar and water until it will “spin a thread” and pour slowly
+over the stiffly beaten whites of the eggs, beating constantly. Allow
+it to become chilled, and stir in the stiffly whipped cream. Soak the
+gelatine in a little water and melt over hot water. Strain into the
+fruit mixture, beating briskly, until well blended; allow this to cool
+and when it begins to thicken, beat in the whipped cream. Pour into a
+wet mold, pack in ice, and salt, and allow to stand for three hours or
+more. Serve in parfait glasses, topped with whipped cream and a cherry.
+
+
+GRAPE AND PINEAPPLE PARFAIT
+
+ 2 cupfuls of milk,
+ 2 egg whites,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ ½ cupful of chopped nut meats,
+ ¼ teaspoonful of powdered nutmeg,
+ 4 cupfuls of pineapple juice,
+ Preserved grapes,
+ Whipped cream,
+ Rose extract,
+ Crystallized mint.
+
+The foundation of this delightful parfait is made in the following
+manner: Scald the two cupfuls of milk and add the beaten egg whites;
+stir in the sugar and chopped nuts. Cook until thick, add the nutmeg;
+cool and add the pineapple juice and freeze.
+
+Put a spoonful of frozen mixture in the bottom of a tall glass, then a
+spoonful of preserved grapes, and fill the glass with the cream. Top
+with whipped cream which has been sweetened and flavored with rose. A
+crystallized mint adds to the attractiveness of this unusual parfait.
+
+
+RASPBERRY PARFAIT
+
+ 1 pint of cream,
+ 1 pint of raspberries,
+ Sugar.
+
+Whip a pint of cream until very stiff, and sweeten with powdered
+sugar slightly. Cook the raspberries until broken, which should not
+take more than five or six minutes; press out all the juice and pulp
+possible, and reboil with three-fourths as much sugar as juice. Allow
+this to cool. Spread whipped cream in a mold, and pour some of the
+raspberry syrup over, and add more cream, and so fill the mold. Unless
+one prefers, then the syrup and whipped cream may be lightly mixed
+before packing in the mold. Pack in ice and salt and allow to stand for
+several hours.
+
+
+MAPLE BISQUE
+
+ 2 eggs,
+ ½ pint of cream,
+ ½ cupful of maple syrup,
+ Vanilla.
+
+Beat the yolks of the eggs until very light, add the maple syrup
+slowly, and heat over a slow fire, stirring constantly until it reaches
+the boiling point. Boil for one minute only; remove from the fire,
+strain and cool.
+
+Beat the cream until firm and add to the stiffly beaten whites of the
+eggs. Pour the syrup mixture over this slowly, beating constantly; add
+the vanilla. Pour into a mold, pack and freeze.
+
+
+PEACH MELBA
+
+ 1 pint of heavy cream,
+ 1 pint of milk,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 tablespoonful of gelatine,
+ ½ teaspoonful of vanilla,
+ 1 can of large peaches or ½ dozen selected peaches.
+
+Heat the milk and sugar, until the sugar is thoroughly dissolved;
+dissolve gelatine in a little cold milk and add to the heated milk and
+sugar.
+
+Allow this to cool, add the cream whipped stiffly, flavor and pour into
+the freezer. Freeze until the crank turns very hard; remove the dasher,
+repack and allow to stand for two hours.
+
+When ready to serve, place a half peach on the bottom of a long stemmed
+glass, fill with the cream, put the other half of the peach on top and
+top with raspberry syrup, then the whipped cream.
+
+
+SAUCE.—To one cupful of raspberry jam add one cupful of boiling water
+sweetened a bit; boil for five minutes, strain, chill and use.
+
+
+PEACH DELIGHT
+
+ 2 cupfuls of water,
+ ¾ cupful of honey,
+ 1 teaspoonful of gelatine,
+ 1 cupful of peach pulp,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 orange,
+ 1 cupful of cream, whipped.
+
+Bring the water and honey to the boiling point and continue to cook
+for twenty minutes. Add the gelatine which should have been soaked and
+dissolved in a little cold water; strain and allow to cool.
+
+When cold add the peach pulp, orange pulp, orange juice and the juice
+of half a lemon. Turn into a freezer and freeze slowly. Serve in
+attractive glasses, topped with whipped cream.
+
+
+FROZEN PEACHES
+
+ 4 cupfuls of mashed peaches,
+ 1½ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice.
+
+Wipe the peaches with a damp cloth; pare and put the skins and one
+peach pit in two cupfuls of cold water and allow to boil for twenty
+minutes; strain through a sieve, pressing out all the juice; add the
+sugar, boil until the sugar is thoroughly dissolved and set aside to
+cool.
+
+When cold add the mashed peaches and the lemon juice and freeze.
+
+If one wishes, a spoonful of whipped cream added to each serving adds
+perceptibly to this dainty.
+
+
+CRUSHED PEACHES
+
+ Peaches,
+ Sugar,
+ Cream.
+
+The housekeeper often finds that peaches are too ripe to slice and
+use with cream; in which case it is wise and economical to skin them,
+remove the stones and mash through a coarse sieve, adding sugar, honey
+or syrup to taste. If the peaches are the kind which have little
+flavor, a little lemon juice is desirable. Serve in low stemmed sherbet
+glasses, topped with whipped cream, on which a candied cherry may be
+placed.
+
+
+FROSTED BANANA CREAM
+
+ Bananas,
+ Sugar,
+ Lemon juice.
+
+Select only very ripe bananas; mash to a paste, sweeten with powdered
+sugar and flavor with a few drops of lemon juice. Press through a sieve
+and to each cupful of banana add a half cupful of whipped cream. Mix
+and serve in attractive glasses, and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
+
+
+ SORBETS, SHERBETS, ICES, GRANITS
+
+The difference in sorbets, sherbets, ices and granits is slight, still
+each fills its own particular purpose and place. Sorbets are supposed
+to be served after the meat course, and while the same ingredients are
+used they are not frozen as long or as smooth as sherbets. Sherbets
+are smoother and firmer, and may well take the place of ice cream as a
+dessert. Water ices are made the same as sherbets, leaving out the egg
+whites. Granits are water ices frozen slightly; in fact so they will
+pour, and may be used as a drink.
+
+
+BLACKBERRY SORBET
+
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar syrup,
+ 3 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice,
+ 1 cupful of rich milk,
+ 2 quarts of blackberries,
+ 1 tablespoonful of gelatine,
+ 2 egg whites.
+
+Press the berries through a sieve fine enough to keep the seeds from
+passing through, but pass the pulp through. Add the syrup and lemon
+juice. Dissolve the gelatine in a little water, and add to the berry
+juice and milk. Pour this mixture into the freezer and turn until
+it begins to thicken. Add the stiffly beaten whites of the eggs and
+continue to freeze until fluffy, but not so smooth as for sherbet. This
+is a fine distinction, but still it is considered worth differentiation.
+
+When this “fluffy” stage is reached remove the dasher, repack and allow
+to stand for about two hours.
+
+
+PLUM SHERBET
+
+While any of these recipes may be made into either sherbet or sorbet, I
+will give from now on only the sherbet recipes.
+
+ 1 quart of ripe plums (preferably red)
+ 2 cupfuls of sugar syrup,
+ 2 egg whites.
+
+Select only very ripe plums; wash, remove pits, and press through a
+sieve. There should be a pint of this pulp and juice. Add syrup, freeze
+until well thickened, add the stiffly beaten whites of the eggs, and
+continue to turn until frozen smooth and as hard as this sort of thing
+can well be frozen.
+
+
+CRANBERRY SHERBET
+
+ 1 quart of cranberries,
+ 1 quart of water,
+ 1 tablespoonful of gelatine,
+ 1½ cupfuls of syrup,
+ 1 egg white.
+
+Cook the cranberries in water for ten minutes. Press through a fine
+sieve, return to the saucepan and add the syrup, cook for five minutes,
+turn into the freezer, and when partly frozen, stir in the stiffly
+beaten white of an egg (use two egg whites if eggs are plentiful), and
+finish freezing.
+
+
+GRAPEFRUIT SHERBET
+
+ 2 cupfuls of water,
+ 2 cupfuls of grapefruit juice,
+ 1½ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 1 teaspoonful of gelatine,
+ ½ cupful of white grape juice,
+ 1 egg white,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of chopped cherries.
+
+Boil the water and sugar together for ten minutes; soften the gelatine
+with a little water and stir into this syrup. Cool, add the juice of
+grapefruit and the grape juice. Turn into a cold freezer and when the
+mixture begins to thicken well, add the stiffly beaten white of an
+egg and the cherries (two egg whites are better if eggs are not too
+expensive). Cover and freeze until firm and smooth.
+
+
+GRAPE SHERBET
+
+ 1 teaspoonful of gelatine,
+ ¾ cupfuls of grape juice,
+ 1 cupful of syrup or sugar,
+ ½ cupful of honey,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice,
+ ½ cupful of water,
+ 1 egg white.
+
+Soak the gelatine in a little cold water; boil the syrup, honey and
+half cupful of water, and add the dissolved gelatine. Allow this to
+cool, add grape juice and the lemon juice and freeze. Open the freezer
+when slightly hard and add the stiffly beaten egg white. Re-cover and
+freeze until smooth and hard. (Two egg whites are better if plentiful.)
+
+
+CRÉOLE LEMON SHERBET
+
+ 3 lemons,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 2 cupfuls of water,
+ 1 egg white.
+
+Boil the water and sugar, and add the grated rind of one lemon. Cool,
+add the juice of three lemons, strain through a fine cloth, and freeze
+until partly frozen, remove the cover, add the egg white stiffly
+beaten. Cover again and freeze until smooth.
+
+
+MILK SHERBET
+
+ 2 lemons,
+ 1 cupful of syrup,
+ 3 cupfuls of whole milk,
+ Candied cherries.
+
+Mix the juice of the lemons and the syrup, add the milk very slowly,
+stirring constantly, as it will curdle if poured too fast. That will
+not spoil the sherbet, but it does not look so well and one’s appetite
+is helped by the appearance of one’s food.
+
+Freeze the mixture, serve in attractive glasses, with a few chopped
+candied cherries.
+
+
+ORANGE SHERBET
+
+ 1 egg white,
+ 2 cupfuls of orange juice,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice,
+ 1 cupful of water,
+ ¾ cupfuls of sugar (brown sugar or syrup may be used).
+
+Put the sugar in a saucepan with the water, bring to the boiling point,
+then cool. Add the orange and lemon juice, a pinch of salt and freeze.
+
+Before the freezing is complete, add the egg white beaten stiffly;
+repack and continue to freeze until smooth.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY SHERBET
+
+ 1 quart of strawberries,
+ 2 cupfuls of water,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ ¾ cupfuls of syrup or sugar,
+ 1 egg white.
+
+Wash and hull the strawberries, mash well and press through a
+cheesecloth. Add the syrup, lemon juice and water. Mix well, freeze
+partially, add the stiffly beaten egg white, and finish freezing.
+
+
+RASPBERRY SHERBET
+
+ 1 quart of raspberries,
+ 1 egg white,
+ 3 cupfuls of water,
+ 1 cupful of syrup or sugar,
+ 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice,
+ 2 cupfuls of raspberry juice.
+
+Mash the berries and press through a cheesecloth; pour boiling water
+over the syrup; add the berry juice and lemon juice and freeze. When
+partially frozen, add the stiffly beaten egg white, stir in well, and
+continue to freeze until smooth.
+
+
+EMERGENCY PEACH SHERBET
+
+This might also be called an economical sherbet, for one may use just
+as many peaches as one has. For in this recipe one is supposed to use
+peaches too ripe for slicing.
+
+Mash the peaches, and press through a coarse sieve and sweeten to
+taste. Half fill sherbet glasses with finely shaved ice and pour the
+sweetened peach pulp over. Top each serving with a preserved or candied
+cherry.
+
+
+PINEAPPLE SHERBET
+
+ 1½ pints of grated pineapple,
+ 1½ cupfuls of syrup,
+ 1 tablespoonful of gelatine,
+ 1 pint of rich milk,
+ 2 egg whites.
+
+To the grated pineapple (canned may be used if fresh pineapple is not
+in season) add the syrup and the gelatine which has been dissolved
+in a small amount of water. Stir, pour into the chilled freezer, and
+freeze until about half frozen; open the freezer and add the milk;
+again turning the freezer until it turns with difficulty. Uncover,
+add the stiffly beaten whites of the eggs, turn until well mixed, and
+thoroughly hard.
+
+If the dasher is removed and the sherbet repacked and allowed to stand
+to “ripen” for two hours, there will be a decided improvement in flavor
+and texture.
+
+
+TEA SHERBET
+
+ 2 cupfuls of tea,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 lemon,
+ 1 orange,
+ ½ cupful of water.
+
+Melt the sugar in the water and allow to begin to boil; take from the
+fire and add the juice of the lemon and orange; stir well, add the tea
+and freeze.
+
+
+APPLE ICE
+
+ 1 quart of tart red apples,
+ 1½ cupfuls of maple sugar,
+ 3 cupfuls of water,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice.
+
+Wash, quarter and remove the core, but do not pare the apples. Put them
+into a saucepan with the water; boil rapidly until soft. Mash and add
+the maple sugar. When cold press through a fine sieve, add the lemon
+juice and freeze.
+
+
+LEMON ICE
+
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 3 lemons,
+ Water.
+
+Add a cupful of sugar to the zest of one lemon and the juice of three;
+add enough water to make a quart. Allow this to come to the boiling
+point, cool, strain and freeze.
+
+
+LOGANBERRY ICE
+
+ 2 cupfuls of loganberry juice,
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice.
+
+Boil the water; add the sugar and when cold add the lemon and
+loganberry juices. Freeze until smooth and hard. Repack and allow to
+stand for two hours.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY ICE
+
+ 1 cupful of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of water,
+ 1 quart of strawberries.
+
+Boil the sugar and water until it bubbles. Wash and hull the
+strawberries; mash and press through a cheesecloth. When the syrup is
+cold, add the strawberry juice and pulp; mix well and freeze.
+
+
+WATERMELON ICE
+
+ Ripe melon,
+ 1½ cupfuls of sugar,
+ 2 oranges,
+ 1 lemon,
+ ½ cupful of white grape juice,
+ Pink vegetable coloring.
+
+Remove the pulp from a ripe melon; press it through a fine sieve and
+add the sugar, lemon juice, orange juice and the zest of one orange and
+the grape juice. Color with enough vegetable color to make it a real
+watermelon pink; pack and freeze.
+
+
+FRUIT GRANITS
+
+Granits are really “snow waters,” frozen only enough to admit being
+poured. The granits are frozen in a freezer, although the Créoles
+usually freeze them in the “old fashioned water jugs.”
+
+
+ORANGE GRANIT
+
+ 1½ cupfuls of orange juice,
+ ½ pound of sugar,
+ 1 pint of water.
+
+Peel six oranges very carefully, removing all the inner white part of
+the skin, and slice very thin. Place this in a deep bowl and sprinkle
+granulated sugar, allowing it to stand for five hours. Squeeze the
+juice from six oranges, and press the juice from the sliced ones,
+straining it and mixing the plain juice with this syrup. Add the water,
+strain and pour into a freezer; and freeze until like mush. Serve in
+small punch glasses.
+
+
+LEMON GRANIT
+
+ 1 pint of water,
+ ½ pound of sugar,
+ 1 cupful of lemon juice.
+
+Extract the juice from the lemons, add the sugar and stir until
+dissolved; add the water and freeze until mush-like and serve in
+attractive punch glasses.
+
+
+STRAWBERRY GRANIT
+
+ 1 quart of strawberries,
+ 1 tablespoonful of strawberry extract,
+ 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice,
+ 1 pound of sugar,
+ 1½ pints of water.
+
+Crush the berries and cover with the sugar, allowing this to stand for
+five hours. Strain and press through a sieve, pressing out all the
+juice possible. Add the lemon juice, water and the extract. Turn this
+into a freezer and freeze until like mush. Serve in punch glasses.
+
+
+RASPBERRY GRANIT
+
+ 1 quart of raspberries,
+ 1 tablespoonful of raspberry extract,
+ 1 pound of sugar,
+ ½ cupful of currants,
+ 1 pint of water.
+
+Crush the currants and raspberries and cover with the sugar, allowing
+this to stand for five hours. Press through a sieve, being sure to
+leave no juice which can possibly be pressed out. Add the extract and
+water and freeze until like mush. Serve in punch glasses.

+ FOREWORD
+ </h2>
+</div>
+
+<p class="noindent"><span class="smcap">To the Hostess of To-Day</span>:</p>
+
+<p>The hostess of to-day will be called upon to serve drinks
+in her home more than formerly, I imagine, and it were
+well to go back to the habits and customs of our grandmothers
+and be prepared to serve a refreshing drink in an
+attractive manner at a moment’s notice.</p>
+
+<p>To do this, one needs have a stock of syrups, either home-made
+or commercial, as well as a supply of shrubs and
+vinegars on hand.</p>
+
+<p>To-day’s hostess does not hold up her hands in horror
+crying that she knows nothing of preparing these things,
+for she has learned a great deal about canning and preserving
+in the last few years, so making syrups, vinegars
+and shrubs will seem like child’s play. If, however, she is
+inclined to think it an arduous task, let her turn to these
+recipes, and she will be convinced that the labor and the
+time expended bring their own reward in the satisfaction
+gained by knowing that one has served a delicious drink delightfully
+made.</p>
+
+<p>There may be the feeling, if my hostess lives in an apartment,
+that there is not room enough to store these syrups
+and vinegars, and while that may be true in part, it is always
+possible to keep two or three popular syrups in quart
+bottles, and at least one bottle of fruit vinegar, in the refrigerator.</p>
+
+<p>As both syrups and vinegars may be made in small quantities,
+one may make them oftener and make enough to last
+a week or two.</p>
+
+<p>There are one or two things I would impress upon the
+hostess who would be popular, and if I refer to these things
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_viii">[viii]</span>again in the book, I trust I may be pardoned, for they are
+most imperative.</p>
+
+<p>First: the necessity for selecting attractive glassware,
+which need not be expensive, but should be thin and clear,
+and, when in use, should always be polished.</p>
+
+<p>When purchasing linen, select it because of its daintiness
+rather than for its elaborateness. Plate doylies and
+serviettes which are plain and fine may be purchased for a
+very little money if care is taken. Who would not rather
+use a doylie with a button-holed edge, spotlessly clean, than
+one heavily embroidered which will require three times the
+labor to launder?</p>
+
+<p>If drinks are served by the maid, it is as essential that
+her cuffs, collar, cap and apron be as spotless as the doylies
+on the service plates.</p>
+
+<p>When cold drinks are served, be sure that the glasses are
+chilled.</p>
+
+<p>For hot drinks, heat the cups or glasses before pouring the
+drinks.</p>
+
+<p>Place the glass or cup on a doylie on a small plate.</p>
+
+<p>When serving an invalid, be over-particular; the glass
+must shine, the doylie be spotless, and the plate the most
+attractive obtainable. If it is possible lay a flower on the
+plate or tray before it is sent into the ill one’s room.</p>
+
+<p>The appetite of a very finicky person may be tempted by
+this over-carefulness.</p>

+ MEASURING SPOONS

+
+<p>I wish to emphasize the absolute necessity for accurate
+measuring; to be a successful mixer of drinks, one must
+measure as carefully as one should when cooking. I use
+the measures I have in my kitchen, and have used them in
+making these recipes. Surely one has a quart cup, a half
+pint, or one cup, measure and a set of spoons; the tablespoon,
+dessertspoon, teaspoon and half teaspoon. Some
+sets have the quarter-teaspoon too. These sets, made of
+aluminum, may be purchased in any hardware store, or in
+the housekeeping department in the large shops at very reasonable
+prices. The glass cup is marked for quarter, half
+and three-quarters on one side, while on the reverse the
+marking is for one-third and two-thirds. The quart cup
+is marked for quarter, half and three-quarters; each quarter
+being equal to one cupful.</p>

+ </h2>
+</div>
+
+<p>There are a number of things worth considering when
+serving drinks at home; first among these is the use of
+attractive glassware. Good looking glasses cost no more
+than ugly ones, and clear fine glass polishes better than
+heavy blurred glass. And surely any drink is more pleasing
+to the palate if the eye is pleased. Be sure that the glasses
+shine, and also ascertain that glasses meant to hold cold
+drinks are chilled. Almost all fruitades, no matter what the
+name or foundation, contain lemon juice, so it is also well to
+remember that lemons intended for squeezing should be
+peeled, and that very carefully. While the lemon peel, or
+the zest, rather, is an excellent flavor, it is not satisfactory in
+lemonade, as there is a little bitterness when it stands, which
+displeases some people.</p>
+
+<p>Most of the recipes given for these fruitades are for individual
+drinks, to make it easier for the hostess to ascertain
+how much to prepare if she knows the number of people to
+be served.</p>
+
+<p>A cocktail shaker, an ice shaver and a long handled spoon
+are almost a necessity in making drinks. They are at least a
+great aid, and as none of these things is expensive and all
+may be obtained in the housekeeping department of any city
+shop, or in the hardware store in small towns, there seems
+no reason for not owning them.</p>
+
+<p>Fruitades are delicious, refreshing and healthful, and
+surely not difficult to make, so that the gracious hostess will
+serve these cooling drinks often.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_2">[2]</span></p>
+
+<p>If syrups are made and bottled one need not worry about
+serving a delectable drink in a surprisingly short time.</p>

+<h3>FRUITADES AND SODAS FROM JUICES OF
+CANNED FRUITS</h3>
+
+<p>So often when a can of strawberries is opened, we find
+there is an abundance of juice, more in fact than we care
+to use with the berries on the table, and if the desired
+amount, <i>only</i>, is left with the fruit for table consumption,
+and the rest reserved, many combinations which are tasty
+and desirable may be made without the extra expense of
+purchasing fruits or prepared syrups.</p>
+
+<p>Strawberries are not the only berries from which the
+juice may be taken, for blackberries and raspberries, both
+red and black, are equally desirable. Besides these berries,
+there is no good reason why the juice from plums, pineapples,
+cherries and peaches may not be used to as good
+advantage.</p>

+
+<p>Any one of the fruitades may be made into a frappé with
+so little trouble that in hot weather there is no reason why
+the hostess should not serve these cooling, delectable drinks
+at a moment’s notice. There are always syrups which may
+be kept in the refrigerator and mixed with lemon syrup, a
+little water or carbonated water added, poured over the
+shaved ice in a sherbet glass, and presto! the frappé is ready
+to serve.</p>
+
+<p>It is also possible to freeze the frappé, and it is advisable
+if one is to serve a goodly number. Remember always that
+a frappé is only partially frozen. As the liquid begins to
+thicken, scrape it from the sides of the freezer, using a long
+knife, preferably a spatula. It would seem impossible to
+keep house without a spatula, because of the many uses to
+which it may be put.</p>

+<h3>ECONOMICAL FRAPPÉS</h3>
+
+<p>There are many times when a small amount of juice from
+either canned or preserved fruits is left from the table
+serving, although all the fruit may have been used, and
+there is no reason why this juice should not be used to good
+advantage in frappés. One should remember always that
+the syrup from preserved fruits is much heavier, and in
+consequence would be somewhat too sweet to use as it came
+from the fruit unless a little acid were added to it. So,
+when using the syrup of preserves add lemon juice and the
+frappé will be much more acceptable and refreshing.</p>

+bowls is in the desirable colonial pattern and will be found

+to err on the other side and serve a punch too tart rather
+than too sweet. It is always wise to taste any drink one is
+preparing.</p>
+
+<p>Peel the lemons and extract the juice, extract the juice
+from two of the oranges and mix with the Loganberry juice
+and sugar and pour into the punch bowl, in which a large
+piece of ice should have been placed. Slice the third orange
+very thin and place in the bowl. Pour the carbonated water
+over all and the punch is ready to serve.</p>

+home-made or commercial, whether made as syrups for this
+purpose or the fruit syrups from preserves, or the medium
+syrups from the cold-pack canning.</p>
+
+<p>Very often there is more syrup or juice than is needed for
+table service in a jar of berries, and this juice may be used
+at once, or a little more sugar added, reheated, placed in
+cans, sealed and put away for later use.</p>
+
+<p>For instance; if a can of strawberries is opened and found
+to have more juice than usual, pour off the surplus and use
+at once, or add enough sugar to make a thicker syrup,—which
+amount will have to be determined by the amount of
+juice,—and re-can and store.</p>

+<h3>NON-ALCOHOLIC COCKTAILS</h3>
+
+<p>As the mission of a cocktail is to be an appetizer, it should
+be served at the beginning of a meal. It may be made of
+fruits, of vegetables, of both fruits and vegetables, or of
+liquids, as one wishes. Most cocktails served at the home
+table will doubtless be made of fresh fruits, but the housekeeper
+will find that there are a number of combinations of
+fruits and vegetables which will be quite acceptable to her
+family and guests.</p>
+
+<p>There are several things to remember when making a
+cocktail; one of which is, always use attractive glasses and
+be sure that they shine. Have the ingredients quite cold
+and by no means make them too sweet, for if they lose the
+tartness, the best effect is lost.</p>
+
+<p>The more attractive the cocktail <i>looks</i>, the more appetizing
+it will prove to be.</p>
+

+
+<p>The glass in which to serve a fizz is straight-sided, in fact
+a tumbler, holding about eight ounces. There are variations

+used on the table.</p>
+
+<p>One necessary thing to remember about serving a fizz;
+always make it when it is to be drunk, not a minute sooner.
+<i>Serve as soon as finished.</i></p>

+</div>
+
+<p>A generation or two ago every housewife who prided
+herself upon her ability as a hostess was very sure to have
+in her cellar shrubs and fruit vinegars of many kinds. For
+in this way she could always offer a guest a delightful and
+refreshing drink with the least amount of work and expenditure
+of time.</p>
+
+<p>1 have been fortunate to have found in the family recipes
+for vinegars and shrubs dating back to 1845. Besides these
+I shall give those of later dates, allowing my readers to try
+them and decide for themselves which they shall use.</p>

+<p>To two quarts of raspberries use one pint of cider vinegar.
+Allow this to stand for two or three days; then mash and
+put them in a bag to strain. To every pint of juice, when
+strained, add a pound of granulated sugar. Boil this for
+twenty minutes, skim and bottle when cold.</p>

+pint of juice. Boil the whole for half an hour, using a
+porcelain kettle. When cold, bottle and seal. Kept in a cool
+place this will keep for years, improving with age.</p>

+<h4>PLAIN SYRUP (OLD RECIPE)</h4>
+
+<p>The recipe reads: “To every large teacupful of water,
+add a pound of sugar.” It would seem wiser in this day
+to use one <i>measuring</i> cupful of water to each pound of
+granulated sugar, if one cares to use this recipe. For what
+one might consider a large cup someone else might think
+rather small.</p>
+
+<p>The recipe directs that “as the sugar and water begins
+to heat, stir it often, and when it rises towards the top of
+the kettle, put in another cupful of water; repeating this
+process two or three times.” If the syrup is not clear, and
+a scum arises, we are told “to skim it carefully, and strain
+into bottles.”</p>

+white of one egg, and the quart of water; stir until the
+sugar is thoroughly dissolved. Put over the fire and simmer
+for five minutes, skim, strain through a flannel bag, bottle
+and seal. It is always well to make a small quantity, for
+in that way one is assured that there will be no spoilage.</p>
+
+<p>When using a flannel bag, be sure to wring it very dry
+from hot water, by so doing insuring the least loss of syrup.</p>

+reason, it is hardly necessary to make it at home, but if
+one has a few grapes which one desires to use for drinks
+and has not the opportunity to obtain the commercial product
+it may be made after the directions issued by the Department
+of Agriculture at Washington.</p>
+
+<p>These directions follow.</p>
+
+<h4>TO MAKE GRAPE JUICE</h4>
+
+<p>Only clean, sound, well ripened, but not overripe, grapes
+should be used. These may be crushed and pressed either
+by hand or in an ordinary cider mill. If light colored juice
+is desired, the crushed grapes are put in a clean, well washed
+cloth sack and either hung up and twisted or grasped by
+two persons, one at either end, and twisted until the greater
+part of the juice is expressed. Then, in a double boiler or its
+equivalent, such as a large stone jar placed in a pan of hot
+water, so that the juice does not come in direct contact
+with the fire, the juice is gradually heated to a temperature
+of 180° to 200°&nbsp;F. The temperature should never be
+allowed to go over 200°&nbsp;F. It is best to use a thermometer;
+if none is available, however, the juice may be heated until
+it steams, but it should not be allowed to boil. It should
+be poured immediately into a glass or enameled vessel and
+allowed to settle for 24 hours; then the juice should be
+drained from the sediment and run through several thicknesses
+of clean flannel or through a conic filter made from
+woolen cloth or felt and fixed to a hoop of iron, so that
+it can be suspended wherever necessary. The juice is then
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_81">[81]</span>poured into clean bottles, space being left at the top for
+the liquid to expand when heated. A good home substitute
+for the commercial pasteurizer is an ordinary wash boiler
+with a thin board fitted over the bottom on which the filled
+bottles are set. Ordinary glass fruit jars serve the same
+purpose equally well. The tubs should be filled with water
+within an inch or so of the tops of the bottles and heated
+until the water begins to simmer. The bottles should be
+taken out and sealed or corked immediately. Only new
+corks that have just been soaked in a temperature of about
+140°&nbsp;F. should be used. It is well to take the further
+precaution of sealing the corks with paraffin or sealing wax
+to prevent the entrance of mold germs.</p>
+
+<p>When red juice is desired, crushed grapes should first
+be heated to a temperature of not more than 200°&nbsp;F.; then
+strained through a clean cloth or drip bag, no pressure
+being used, and set away to cool and settle. The remaining
+procedure is the same for the red as for the light colored
+juice. Many people do not even take the trouble to let
+the juice settle after it is strained, simply reheating and
+sealing the vessels and setting them away in an upright
+position in a cool place where they will be undisturbed. If
+bottles are used, the corks should be sterilized and the necks
+of the bottles sealed with sealing wax. The juice settles,
+and when desired for use the clear liquid is poured off the
+sediment.</p>
+
+<p>Any person familiar with the process of canning fruit
+can put up grape juice, for the principles involved are the
+same. Care should be taken not to sterilize the juice at a
+temperature higher than 195°&nbsp;F.; or the finished product
+will have a scorched taste. The bottles or jars should not
+be so large that when they are opened the juice will spoil
+before it can be used. Unfermented grape juice, properly
+made and bottled, will keep indefinitely if not exposed to
+the atmosphere or to infection of mold germs; when a bottle
+is once open, however, the contents, like canned goods generally,
+should be used as soon as possible. Unfermented
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_82">[82]</span>juice may be made not only from all varieties of grapes,
+but also from some other fruits, such as apples, pears and
+cherries. Some berries also yield excellent juices.</p>
+
+<h4>GRAPE JUICE No. 2</h4>
+
+<p>Crush the grapes in a clean kettle with a wooden spoon
+and put them in a cloth sack or jelly bag. Twist the sack
+or press it until the juice has all come out. Put the juice
+in a double boiler over hot water until it steams. If a kettle
+is used, great care must be taken that the juice does not
+boil. Let the juice stand in an enamel kettle for 24 hours
+to settle. Run it through a flannel jelly bag and put into
+clean bottles. Leave space in bottle for the liquid to
+expand. Put the bottle in a sterilizer and fill the sterilizer
+with cold water until within an inch of the top of the bottles.
+Heat the water slowly until it is nearly simmering, take the
+bottles out and insert clean corks, and, as a final precaution
+it is advisable to dip the top of the cork in sealing wax or
+paraffin.</p>
+
+<p>This makes a light colored juice. For a red juice, the
+grapes may be heated until just before the boiling point as
+in the first part of the process. It is not necessary to allow
+the juice to settle but it is much clearer if you do.</p>

+
+<h3>CIDER</h3>
+
+<p>It would seem unnecessary labor to make cider at home,
+unless, of course one lives on a farm and has many apples
+to dispose of after the selected apples are shipped or stored
+for winter use. And even in that event one is likely to take
+the apples to a community cider mill. But if there should
+be a time when one of my readers cares to try cider making
+at home it may be done with utensils found in every kitchen.</p>
+
+<p>Be sure that there are no bruised or rotted spots on the
+apples to be used and wipe them carefully with a damp
+cloth. Cut them in pieces and run through a food grinder,
+placing a deep dish where it will catch <i>all</i> of the juice.
+Place a fine cloth in a colander; pile the apple pomace (the
+ground apple) in it and pour all the juice in too. Fold
+the cloth over and place a heavy weight on top, pressing
+it often. When the juice or cider is pressed out, bottle and
+use. It should not be kept, as it becomes sour very quickly.</p>
+
+<p>It is probably as economical to purchase the sweet cider
+as to use the time and the necessary apples to make the
+cider.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_86">[86]</span></p>
+
+<h4>TO KEEP CIDER SWEET AND SPARKLING<br>
+(Date of recipe, 1845)</h4>
+
+<p>Let the new sweet cider ferment from one to three weeks
+according to whether the weather is cool or warm, longer
+if cool or one week if warm. When it has attained a lively
+fermentation, add to each gallon, according to its acidity,
+from one half to two pounds of sugar, and allow it to again
+ferment until the desired sweetness is reached. Pour out
+one quart of the cider and add for each gallon one-quarter
+ounce of sulphite of lime (anti-chloride). Stir the powder
+and cider until thoroughly mixed and return to the rest
+of the cider. Agitate well and briskly for a few minutes
+and then let the cider settle. The fermentation will cease
+at once. After a few days draw off the clear cider, bottle
+carefully, and cork well. Bottles with patent stoppers will
+be found most satisfactory.</p>
+
+<h4>TO BOIL CIDER<br>(Old New England recipe)</h4>
+
+<p>Use perfectly sweet cider, preferably not over two days
+old: boil until boiled down about half. Skim often, pour
+into hot bottles and cork tightly. Store in a cool place.</p>
+
+<p>This may be used for drinks, by stirring two tablespoonfuls
+into a glassful of iced water.</p>

+<h3>HOT MILK DRINKS</h3>
+
+<h4>HOT MILK</h4>
+
+<p>For the person who is tired and who does not like plain
+cold milk, try heating the milk until just below the boiling
+point, adding a goodly sized pinch of salt and a generous
+sprinkling of paprika. Serve with a saltine or a toasted
+cracker.</p>
+
+<h4>HOT MILK WITH CELERY SALT</h4>
+
+<p>Heat the milk until just below the boiling point, add a
+generous pinch of salt and a sprinkling of celery salt;
+stir well and serve with toasted crackers.</p>

+but do not use sugar with it.</p>
+
+<h3>BUTTERMILK</h3>
+
+<p>Buttermilk as a beverage is to be greatly desired because
+of its food value as well as the fact that it is a most
+refreshing drink.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_103">[103]</span></p>
+
+<p>The food content is very high, having nearly all the food
+materials found in whole milk, excepting, of course, the
+butter fats, which have been removed by churning; still some
+fats do remain; especially is this true of buttermilk obtained
+direct from such farmers as do not use the most advanced
+methods of butter-making.</p>
+
+<p>We find 3 per cent. of protein, nearly 5 per cent. of carbohydrates
+in the form of milk sugar, 0.7 per cent. of mineral
+constituents, and about 0.5 per cent. of fats.</p>
+
+<p>Buttermilk is recommended by many successful physicians
+as an aid in intestinal disorders.</p>
+
+<p>Buttermilk is served at most soda fountains, and may be
+ordered from one’s dairyman, also may be obtained at some
+grocers’ and at all better class hotels.</p>
+
+<h4>BUTTERMILK LEMONADE</h4>
+
+<p>For persons not caring for buttermilk plain, one may make
+a lemonade which is healthful as well as delicious.</p>
+
+
+<table class="recipe">
+<tr>
+<td class="tdl">1</td>
+<td class="tdl">quart of buttermilk,</td>
+</tr>
+<tr>
+<td class="tdl">2</td>
+<td class="tdl">lemons,</td>
+</tr>
+<tr>
+<td class="tdl">2</td>
+<td class="tdl">tablespoonfuls of sugar.</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+
+<p>Extract the juice of the lemons, add the sugar and stir
+until dissolved; add the buttermilk, stirring constantly. If
+a smaller quantity is to be made it were well to use a shaker,
+for then the lemonade will be so thoroughly mixed that the
+results will be most satisfactory.</p>
+
+<h4>“LACTO”</h4>
+
+<p>The following recipe is taken from a bulletin issued by
+the Iowa Agricultural Experiment Station.</p>
+
+
+<table class="recipe">
+<tr>
+<td class="tdl">2</td>

+ VIII—COFFEE, CHOCOLATE, COCOA
+ AND TEA
+ </h2>
+</div>
+
+<p>A book of beverage recipes which did not give directions
+for making coffee, tea and cocoa would surely fail in its
+mission.</p>
+
+<p>I have given recipes from many countries, and by many
+men famous for coffee making, feeling sure that each reader
+will find the exact one to please the fancy of himself or
+herself and family.</p>
+
+<h3>COFFEE</h3>
+
+<p>Even though we as Americans are coffee drinkers to
+almost an alarming degree, it is not often that we find a
+cook who really makes excellent coffee.</p>
+
+<p>When purchasing coffee one must be influenced by one’s
+taste; whether all Java, whether equal parts of Mocha and
+Java, or whether a blend of one’s own or a commercial blend
+is used.</p>
+
+<p>One thing should be remembered, and that is: good coffee
+is served as soon as it is made.</p>
+
+<p>The pot should always be hot before the coffee is made.</p>
+
+<p>The late Francis B. Thurber, a coffee importer, who made
+coffee a study both as it came to this country and as it was
+grown in its native state, gives the following recipe as his
+idea of unexcelled coffee:</p>
+
+<p>To one cupful of coffee ground moderately fine add one
+egg with shell, and enough cold water to wet the grounds.
+Pour on one pint of boiling water and let it boil for fifteen
+minutes. Remove the pot from the fire and allow it to
+stand for three minutes to settle, then strain into a warm
+coffee pot. Serve in cups half filled with boiling milk, or
+if cream is used dilute with hot water.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_106">[106]</span></p>
+
+<h4>FRENCH DRIP COFFEE</h4>
+
+<p>For <i>cafe noir</i> use two tablespoonfuls of finely ground
+coffee for each cup. Coffee should be packed tightly as
+possible in the upper part of the French pot, and the boiling
+water poured through. When this has dripped through,
+redrip and serve.</p>
+
+<p>Parisian housekeepers, before throwing out the grounds,
+pour boiling water through the coffee again, reserving this
+for use the next time coffee is made.</p>
+
+<p>Much of the flavor of French coffee is said to be due to
+this practice.</p>
+
+<h4>VIENNA COFFEE</h4>
+
+<p>The pot required to make coffee after this method is the
+style with a cloth bag in the top.</p>
+
+<p>Use two level tablespoonfuls of coffee to the cup, and
+place in the bag, pouring the boiling water through.</p>
+
+<p>Serve with hot milk.</p>
+
+<h4>ENGLISH COFFEE</h4>
+
+<p>After the recipe of M. Soyer, a former <i>chef</i> of the Savoy.</p>
+
+<p>Place two ounces of moderately fine ground coffee in a
+stew-pan, and without adding water, hold over the fire,
+stirring with a spoon until the coffee is very hot. Pour over
+the coffee a pint of boiling water and cover closely; remove
+at once from fire and let stand for five minutes, then strain
+through a cloth, heat and serve with or without cream.</p>
+
+<h4>COFFEE, BRAZILIAN STYLE</h4>
+
+<p>In Brazil, whence practically all of the world’s supply of
+coffee comes, the popular method is to place the coffee in
+a <i>woolen</i> bag, which is placed in a pot and boiling water
+poured over it. The coffee is immediately poured off.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_107">[107]</span></p>
+
+<h4>COFFEE, BATAVIA STYLE</h4>
+
+<p class="center">(<i>As made by the Dutch coffee planters in Java</i>)</p>
+
+<p>The coffee is ground fine and packed tightly in the top of
+a French pot. The required amount of <i>cold</i> water is poured
+over it and allowed to drip through. It requires about five
+hours for the process if the coffee is packed as tightly as it
+should be. The coffee is then heated and from three to
+four times its volume of hot milk added.</p>
+
+<h4>TURKISH COFFEE</h4>
+
+<p>A heaping dessertspoonful of powdered coffee is added
+to one small cupful of cold water. This is brought to a boil,
+and the coffee and grounds are poured into the cup.</p>
+
+<p>Turkish coffee is drunk grounds and all, without cream
+or sugar.</p>
+
+<h4>KAFFEE “KULTUR”</h4>
+
+<p>It is the unanimous observation of civilized travelers that
+good coffee is unobtainable in Germany. The foremost
+scientist of that race, the famous Baron von Liebig, nearly
+a hundred years ago wrote an exhaustive treatise on the
+subject of coffee and coffee making, and devised the concoction
+which among Germans now passes for coffee. Was
+it not given them by authority? This is von Liebig’s recipe:</p>
+
+<p>Put three-quarters of the amount of coffee to be used on
+the fire in boiling water; boil from ten to fifteen minutes.
+Then put in the remaining one-quarter of the coffee, cover
+and let it stand for five minutes. Stir, strain and serve
+with an equal amount of milk.</p>
+
+<h4>EXCELLENT COFFEE</h4>
+
+<p>Use a drip pot, one having a cloth bag. Wet the bag,
+place the coffee in this, and pack as tightly as possible around
+the sides and bottom. Pour in slowly three cupfuls of boiling
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_108">[108]</span>water to each half cupful of powdered coffee. Place the
+pot on the back of the range, or on an asbestos mat with
+only enough flame under to keep it warm, and pour the
+water slowly.</p>
+
+<p>Serve with cream as soon as dripped.</p>
+
+<h3>TEA</h3>
+
+<p>Chin Hung, Chinese scholar and philosopher, to whom
+all the agricultural and medical knowledge of China is
+traced, once said, so I am told: “Tea is better than wine,
+for it leadeth not to intoxication, neither does it cause a
+man to say foolish things. It is better than water, for it
+doth not carry disease, neither doth it act as poison.”</p>
+
+<p>There are really but two kinds of teas on the market:
+green and black. The color of the tea depends on the
+oxidation; black tea being exposed to the air, or oxidized
+before final drying, while green tea is dried immediately
+after rolling.</p>
+
+<p>There are a number of different brands with which we
+are all familiar, such as Formosa, Oolong, Ceylon, English
+Breakfast, Orange Pekoe, and Flowery Pekoe.</p>
+
+<p>Right here I will say that if a spray of orange blossom is
+kept in the tea caddy one need not pay the price for Orange
+Pekoe.</p>
+
+<h4>TEA MAKING</h4>
+
+<p>Be sure that the water is boiling, and use it at once.
+Rinse the pot with hot water. Place the tea in the pot in
+a “ball,” and pour over the freshly boiled water, allowing
+it to stand for five minutes, then the tea-ball and the tea
+should be removed.</p>
+
+<p>Use a level teaspoonful of tea to one and a half cupfuls
+of water. I think most people will want to dilute this, even.</p>
+
+<h4>RUSSIAN TEA</h4>
+
+<p>“Russian tea” has a rather inflated reputation, and is
+not really known in this country as it is used there.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_109">[109]</span></p>
+
+<p>A great amount of tea infusion is used, as the samovar
+is always in evidence, but the water is poured on the tea
+again and again, making a great amount of liquid without
+much strength. Sugar and lemon juice is added and it is
+drunk from a glass.</p>
+
+<h4>ICED TEA</h4>
+
+<p>One may make fresh tea and pour it over cracked ice in
+individual glasses, or one may make a rather strong solution
+of tea, and add cracked ice to it in a large pitcher, or make
+a weaker solution, and pour over cracked ice in glasses. The
+method must depend upon the fancy of one’s family, or the
+hostess.</p>
+
+<h4>ICED TEA WITH MINT</h4>
+
+<p>While iced tea is usually served with sugar and lemon,
+I am quite sure that in addition a spray of mint will be
+found most acceptable. Place the mint in the glass and
+pour the tea over.</p>
+
+<h4>HOT TEA WITH MINT</h4>
+
+<p>I find that a cupful of hot tea into which a few leaves
+of mint have been placed is most refreshing. This may be
+served either with or without sugar.</p>
+
+<h3>COCOA AND CHOCOLATE</h3>
+
+<p>It is very rare for one to serve chocolate these days, as
+cocoa in a perfected form is put up by reliable firms in
+this country, and most hostesses prefer it to chocolate, which
+is more difficult to prepare and rather richer than wise to
+serve to the family generally.</p>
+
+<h4>COCOA</h4>
+
+
+<table class="recipe">
+<tr>
+<td class="tdl">1</td>
+<td class="tdl">cupful of milk,</td>

+</tr>
+</table>
+
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_110">[110]</span></p>
+
+<p>Bring the milk to the boiling point and pour in the cocoa
+moistened with a little warm water. Stir and allow to boil,
+beating with a cream whip for a minute or two. Pour
+through a strainer into a cup or individual pot. Multiply
+this amount by the number of cups to be served.</p>
+
+<h4>COCOA No. 2</h4>

+
+
+<p>Use a <i>porcelain</i> kettle; mix the cocoa with enough hot
+water to make a smooth paste, pour the milk over it slowly,
+mixing constantly, so that there will be no lumps left
+undissolved. Bring to the boiling point, and boil for ten
+minutes. Strain, and serve at once. A teaspoonful of
+sweetened whipped cream added to each cup adds perceptibly
+to the acceptability. Sweeten to taste.</p>
+
+<h4>CHOCOLATE</h4>
+
+
+<table class="recipe">
+<tr>
+<td class="tdl">2</td>

+</table>
+
+
+<p>Grate enough unsweetened chocolate to make two tablespoonfuls,
+mix with a little boiling water, and melt slowly
+over a low fire, then add the milk, pouring carefully, stirring
+while pouring. Allow this to boil for ten minutes and
+strain. Whipped cream added to each serving is delightful,
+although it makes the drink a bit too rich for most people.
+It would be unadvisable for persons given to stoutness to
+drink chocolate.</p>

+of a cupful of boiling water. Season with salt, or

+ XI—SUNDAES
+ </h2>
+</div>
+
+<p>Because of the popularity of sundaes, and the preference
+shown by many for them instead of sweet or fruit drinks, I
+shall give a goodly number of suggestions for making these
+delightful concoctions.</p>
+
+<p>I shall give recipes for sauces to be used on them, as well
+as suggestions for preserving and drying cherries.</p>
+
+<p>While the recipes given for syrups, both plain and flavored,
+are given primarily for the making of punches, bowls, cups
+and the like, there is no reason why these should not be used
+on sundaes, in fact there is every reason why they should.</p>
+
+<p>It is also possible and most advisable to use the syrup from
+canned or preserved fruits on sundaes, as there is almost
+always more syrup in a jar of fruit than is needed, and it
+may be used to advantage in this way.</p>
+
+<p>One may make marshmallow cream or purchase it ready
+for use. One candy manufacturer in New York puts out an
+excellent article at a very reasonable price.</p>
+
+<p>While one almost invariably sees pecan nuts used for
+topping sundaes, it is not at all essential that they should be;
+walnuts, either domestic or English, may be used with equal
+success. If obtainable, try butternuts broken in pieces.</p>
+
+<p>One may use either the short-stemmed, wide-topped
+sherbet glasses or the wide long stemmed champagne glasses
+for service. These are equally attractive.</p>
+
+<p>Select small plates, place a doylie on each and place the
+glass on that. Lay a small spoon on the plate.</p>
+
+<p>In most instances, a rounded spoonful of ice cream is
+placed in the glass first, then the syrup or sauce is poured
+over that, and nuts, or chopped fruits, or both are then
+added.</p>
+
+<p>One may use any flavor ice cream one desires, and because
+of this I have given a number of recipes for ice creams, not
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_136">[136]</span>only for making sundaes because they, too, quench the
+thirst.</p>
+
+<p>There is one important thing to remember when making
+sundaes; they must <i>never</i> look mussy! Even though a
+number of different things are used in the making, it is not
+at all necessary to use such haste that they will not look
+appetizing.</p>
+
+<p>After the cream is in the glass, pour the syrup or sauce
+over carefully, being sure not to drip it; add the next thing
+just as carefully as the first, and if nuts are to top the dish,
+add only enough to stay where they are meant to stay—<i>on
+the top</i>. If the nuts fall to the service plate the whole
+service is spoiled in appearance.</p>
+
+<p>An attractive service makes for the success of the hostess.</p>

+<h4>CANNED, PRESERVED AND DRIED CHERRIES<br>
+(For use in making sundaes)</h4>
+
+<p>There may be several reasons why one prefers to use
+home-canned or dried cherries instead of using those commercially
+prepared. To can them at home, the first thing
+to remember is; the fruit should be well ripened and the
+cherries will be far better if it is possible to obtain them
+directly from the trees. If one is fortunate enough to be
+able to get them from the trees, see that they hang at least
+four days after they are considered ripe, for they will be
+larger, riper and sweeter.</p>
+
+<p>Another thing to bear in mind, is that cherries should be
+simmered and never boiled.</p>
+
+<p>It is quite possible to use any canned cherries one may
+have, or may purchase, in making sundaes, or those put
+up commercially for this purpose alone.</p>
+
+<h4>CANNED CHERRIES</h4>
+
+<p>The amount of fruit depends upon the desire of the
+<ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note—original text: hotesss" id="hostess">hostess</ins>, for she may have a few she wishes to can, or a
+great many; the process is the same.</p>

+
+
+<p>Wash and pit the cherries, put them in sterilized jars,
+adjust the rubbers (new ones), and pour over the boiling
+syrup, made of the sugar and water boiled. Pour in enough
+syrup to nearly overflow. Partially seal the jar and place
+in a sterilizer, either commercial or home-made, and nearly
+cover with boiling water. It has been found satisfactory by
+the writer to allow the water to reach just <i>below</i> the top.
+Sterilize for sixteen minutes.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_149">[149]</span></p>
+
+<h4>CANNED CHERRIES WITHOUT SYRUP</h4>
+
+<p>If one cares to can the cherries without using syrup, pour
+plain boiling water over the cherries in the jars, in place of
+the syrup and sterilize for a half hour. After sterilization,
+complete the seal, invert to test for leakage, allow to cool,
+wrap in dark paper and store.</p>
+
+<h4>PRESERVED CHERRIES</h4>
+
+<p>Remove the pits from the largest cherries obtainable;
+allow a pound of sugar and one cupful of water to each
+pound of fruit. Melt the sugar in the water, let it come to
+a boil and skim thoroughly. Then add the cherries and
+allow them to simmer for twenty minutes. Take out with
+a skimmer, pack into sterilized hot jars and boil down the
+syrup until quite thick. Fill the jars to overflowing and
+seal air-tight, using new rubbers and hot covers.</p>
+
+<h4>PRESERVES AND SHRUB FROM THE SAME CHERRIES</h4>
+
+<p>Stone the cherries and cover with vinegar. Stand in a
+cool place for twenty-four hours and drain off the fruit
+juice and the vinegar. To each pint of juice add a scant
+pound of sugar, simmer for twenty-five minutes and bottle
+air-tight. Put the drained cherries in a stone crock with
+alternate layers of granulated sugar, allowing three-quarters
+of a pound of sugar for each pint of fruit. Keep the crock
+covered and in a cool place. Every eighteen hours stir the
+fruit and sugar carefully for a period of eight days. The
+uncooked preserves can be put in small jars and paraffined,
+but they need not be sealed air-tight.</p>
+
+<h4>MOCK MARASCHINO CHERRIES</h4>
+
+<p>Select the largest sized cherries one can find and remove
+the pits, saving all the juice. Measure fruit and juice and
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_150">[150]</span>allow an equal amount of sugar. Drain the cherries and
+set on the ice. Put the juice and sugar into a preserving
+kettle, cook to a thick syrup and add the cherries. Simmer
+for fifteen minutes. Drain off half the cherry syrup, add
+an equal amount of white grape juice, bring quickly to the
+boil and seal as for preserved fruit.</p>
+
+<h4>DRIED CHERRIES</h4>
+
+<p>The larger the cherry the more satisfactory if dried to
+use for sundaes.</p>
+
+<p>Wash, stem and pit the cherries; spread in thin layers
+on a drying tray. (Commercial driers are inexpensive and
+very satisfactory.) Dry from two to four hours, starting
+at 110 degrees F. Condition them by placing in composition
+or paper boxes and pouring them from box to box every day
+for four days. This is to insure even drying. If too moist,
+return to the drier for a short time, and again pour into the
+boxes, and again “condition” them.</p>

+<h3>SORBETS, SHERBETS, ICES, GRANITS</h3>
+
+<p>The difference in sorbets, sherbets, ices and granits is
+slight, still each fills its own particular purpose and place.
+Sorbets are supposed to be served after the meat course, and
+while the same ingredients are used they are not frozen
+as long or as smooth as sherbets. Sherbets are smoother
+and firmer, and may well take the place of ice cream as a
+dessert. Water ices are made the same as sherbets, leaving
+out the egg whites. Granits are water ices frozen slightly;
+in fact so they will pour, and may be used as a drink.</p>
