Put the concentrated juice in a cup and pour the boiling water over it, stirring until well mixed. Season to taste. One may use milk if one wishes instead of water, or may use half water and half milk. COMMERCIAL BEEF TEA OR BROTH There are several manufacturers who put out concentrated Tstef extracts, some in cubes, and some in a sort of paste farm. If one uses the cubes, one cube is used to each three- quarters of a cupful of boiling water. Season with salt, or with salt and celery salt. If one wishes, a drop or two of onion juice may be added to this beef tea, as well as salt and celery salt.
