First mix the ingre dients in a small tumbler, then take a fancy red wine glass, put a sliced lemon round the rim of the glass, and dip it in powdered white sugar,so that the sugar will adhere to the edge of the glass; pare half a lemon,the same as you would an apple (all in one piece), so that the paring will fit into the wine glass, and strain the Crusta from the tumbler into it.
