246. Ginger Wine.
Put twelve pounds of loaf sugar and six ounces of
powdered ginger into six gallons of water; let it boil
for an hour, then beat up the whites of a half dozen
eggs with a whisk, and mix them well with the liquor.
When quite cold put it into a barrel, with six lemons
cut into slices, and a cupful of yeast; let it work for
three days, then put in the bung. In a week's time you
may bottle it, and it will be ready for immediate use.
247. Milk and Seltzer.
Use a medium sized bar glass. Half fill the glass
with seltzer and the rest with milk, if done otherwise
you will have nothing but foam in your glass which will
cause delay.
