SUMMER DRINKS
Gin and Wormwood.
Put three or four sprigs of wormwood into a
quart decanter, and fill up with gin ; let it draw
for a few days until the wormwood has soaked
into the gin. Serve in a wineglass.
Golden Slipper.
Place the yolk of a fresh cold egg in half a
wineglass of chartreuse (yellow) and half a
wineglass of Danziger goldwasser in a spiral
or fancy wineglass, in such a manner that the
egg and liqueurs do not mix. {See L'Amour
Pousse, another way, page 45.)
Heap of Comfort.
Put into a small tumbler the yolk of one egg,
two-thirds of a wineglass of sherry, one-third of
a wineglass of brandy, ten drops of cura9oa, and
a teaspoonful of icing sugar; add shaved ice,
shake well, and strain into a coloured glass;
dust with nutmeg.
Iced Coffee.
Prepare some good Mocha coffee, and let it
cool; then place it in a carafe and put it in a
vessel surrounded with ice. Serve in a small
tumbler.
