Break the yolks of six eggs in the bottom of a large bowl; beat

it

long enough to make bubbles appear on the top; stir in some

fine sugar gradually, until the mixture becomes hard enough, so

that you may take out a spoonful of it without spilling anything;

beat the whites of the eggs into the form of frozen snow in an–

other bowl; add one-half of this to your first mixture; mix this

together with two ponies of maraschino and two ponies of creme

de vanille, take a tablespoonful of this mixture in a fancy Tom–

and-Jerry cup; add a small drink of either brandy, whiskey, rum,

sherry wine or port wine; mix this well; fill the balance with

boiling milk; put a little of the white of the eggs you have got

left on the top; add a little ground cinnamon and your drink is

ready.

(To keep your mixture in the bowl from getting hard, put a

small glass of ale on the top.)

Mix one part of Burgundy and two parts of champagne in

your glass. (This drink is one of the richest.)

Also porter (Dublin Stout) may be mixed the same way with

champagne with a most satisfactory result.
