Saiiffaree^
The Sangaree is a relation to the Rickey, with the difference, that
not only are the usual spirits, like Gin, Brandy or Whisky used,
but also Southern Wines, English beers. Ale and Porter, sugared,
strewn with nutmeg and without ice. Sangarees mixed with Spirits
and Wines are served in small tumblers, those with beer however
in medium or even large tumblers. Beer-Sangarees are also served
hot, however they need great care while boiling. They must be
taken off the fire as soon as they reach the boiling-point. In regard
to the origin of the Sangaree various views exist. It very probably
originated in India. It is also thought that it was used in the
Southern States of the U. S. A. for the wounded and for patients.
The name is supposed to be derived from Sangari = a blood-drink.
lie Sangaree est un parent proche du Rickey, avec la seule diffe
rence que I'on y emploie non seulement les spiritueux ordinaires,
tels que Gin, Brandy, Whisky, mais egalement les vins du sud et
les bieres anglaises, les Ales et le Porter sucre, poudre de muscade
et sans glace. Les Sangarees melanges avec des spiritueux et des vins
sont servis dans le petit Tumbler, ceux a base de biere dans le
Tumbler moyen ou meme grand. Les Sangarees a biere sont aussi
servis chauds, exigent une main sure pour la cuisson et doivent etre
retires du feu au moment de I'ebullition.
Quant a I'origine des Sangarees on n'est point tombe d'accord. On
pretend qu'ils ressortent des Indes. Mais on dit aussi qu'ils ont
servi aux soins que I'on portait aux soldats blesses et malades des
Etats du Sud.
