1895 The Mixicologist by C F Lawlor

THE MIXICOLOGIST.

Fine Lemonade for Parties. I (One gallon.)

Take the rind of 8 lemons. Juice of 12 lemons.

2 pounds of loaf sugar. 1 gallon boiling '"'ater.

Rub the rinds of the eight lemons on the sugar until it has absorbed all the oil from them, and put it with the remainder of the sugar into a jug; add the lemon juice (but no pips), and pour over the whole the boiling water. When the sugar is dis– solved strain the lemonade through a piece of mus– lin, and when cool it will be ready for u se. The lemonade will be much improved by having the whites of four eggs beaten up with it. A larger or smaller quantity of this can be made by increasing or diminishing the ingredient~ used.
