2 yolks of fresh eggs, beaten to a batter with a little white sugar. Pour the hot wine over the eggs, stirring continually while doing so, grate a little nutmeg on top, and serve.

In mixing this drink, an extra large hot-water glass must be used. Mix as follows: •J medium-sized well roasted or baked apple •J tablespoonful of sugar; dissolve well with a little hot water; 1 wine glass full of old apple jack. Fill the balance with hot water, mix well with a spoon, grate a little nutmeg on top, and serve with a bar spoon. If the customer desires the drink strained, use a fine strainer, such as used for milk punches; attention must be given while roasting the apples, that they are not overdone, but done in a nice and juicy manner; use only apples of the finest quality.
