BRANDY CRUSTA

Use small bar glass

Crusta is made the same as a fancy cocktail, with a little

lemon juice and a small lump of ice added. First, mix the

ingredients in a small tumbler, then take a fancy red wine

glass, rub a sliced lemon around the rim of the same, and

dip it in pulverized white sugar,so that the sugar will adhere

to the edge of the glass. Pare half a lemon the same as you

would an apple (all in one piece) so that the paring will fit

in the wineglass, and strain the crusta from the tumbler into

it.Then smile.
