WHAT
TO
DRINK
I—
FRUITADES,
ICED,
FRAPPE
AND HOT
There
are
a
number
of
things
worth
considering
when
serving
drinks
at
home;
first
among
these
is
the
use
of
attractive
glassware.
Good
looking
glasses
cost
no
more
than
ugly
ones,
and
clear
fine
glass
polishes
better
than
heavy
blurred
glass.
And
surely
any
drink
is
more
pleasing
to
the
palate
if
the
eye
is
pleased.
Be
sure
that
the
glasses
shine,
and
also
ascertain
that
glasses
meant
to
hold
cold
drinks
are
chilled.
Almost
all
fruitades,
no
matter
what
the
name
or
foundation,
contain
lemon
juice,
so
it
is
also
well
to
remember
that
lemons
intended
for
squeezing
should
be
peeled,
and
that
very
carefully.
While
the
lemon
peel,
or
the
zest,
rather,
is
an
excellent
flavor,
it
is
not
satisfactory
in
lemonade,
as
there
is
a
little
bitterness
when
it
stands,
which
displeases
some
people.
Most
of
the
recipes
given
for
these
fruitades
are
for
indi-
vidual
drinks,
to
make
it
easier
for the
hostess
to
ascertain
how
much
to
prepare
if
she
knows
the
number
of
people
to
be
served.
A
cocktail
shaker,
an
ice
shaver
and
a
long-handled
spoon
are
almost
a
necessity
in
making
drinks.
They
are
at
least
a
great
aid,
and
as
none
of
these
things
is
expensive
and
all
may
be
obtained
in
the
housekeeping
department
of
any
city
shop,
or
in
the
hardware
store
in
small
towns,
there
seems
no
reason
for
not
owning
them.
Fruitades
are
delicious,
refreshing
and
healthful,
and
surely
not
difficult
to
make,
so that
the
gracious
hostess
will
serve these
cooling
drinks
often.
