For a dinner party the most satisfac tory method is to prepare it before hand. Stack about two dozen cubes of sugar in a small platter or dish, leav ing a little space between the cubes. Over the stack pour carefully, about a pint of good cognac brandy, and after setting on fire keep turning it over the sugar until burned out. This will make a syrupy liquor which should be- poured into a small decanter and brought to the table with the coffee.
