TEMPERANCE DRINKS
Apple Drink.
To two quarts of boiling water add eight
apples cut into slices, without peeling or coring;
keep boiling until the apples are quite soft,
then strain through a bag or sieve, and sweeten
with icing sugar to taste. This drink is very
refreshing when quite cold.
Apple Drink.
Another Way.
Have half a gallon of water boiling, throw
into it twelve good sized apples cut into slices
without peeling, and keep them boiling until
quite tender; then strain dry, but do not let
any of the apple pulp pass through the sieve;
add enough powdered sugar to taste, and the
juice of two lemons. Let it stand until cool,
and ice when wanted.
Apple Drink.
Another Way.
Bake six or eight apples without paring them;
when quite soft, put them into a pan and pour
two quarts of boiling water over them ; when
quite cold, strain, and add icing sugar to
taste.
