28. Gin Punch.

(For bottling )

Following General Ford's plan, as already described, for making sherbet, add good gin, in the proper propor- tion before prescribed ; this, bottled and kept in a cool cellar or cistern, will be found an economical and excellent summer drink.

29, Glasgow Punch.

(From a recipe in the possession of Dr. Shelton Mackenzie.)

Melt lump-sugar in cold water, with the juice of a couple of lemons, passed through a fine hair-strainer. This is sherbet, and must be well mingled. Then add old Ja- maica rum — one part of rum to five of sherbet. Cut a couple of limes in two, and run each section rapidly around the edge of the jug or bowl, gently squeezing in some of the delicate acid This done, the punch is made. Imbibe.
