BLUE BLAZER.
One tablespoonful sugar dissolved in a little
hot water, one jigger Scotch whisky. Set the
liquid on fire, and while blazing, pour three or
four times from one mug into another; this will
give the appearance of a stream of liquid fire;
twist a piece of lemon peel on top, with a little
grated nutmeg, and serve. As this preparation
requires skill, it is quite requisite that the amateur
should practice with cold water at first.
RHINE WINE AND SELTZER.
Fill star champagne-glass one-half full Rhine
wine, fill with syphon seltzer.
WHISKY JULEP.
Put in tall punch-glass one large bar-spoonful
syrup, one piece twisted lemon peel, three sprigs
mint, fill glass with fine ice, one jigger whisky,
one-half jigger water. Stir with long bar-spoon,
but do not bruise the mint,as it will give sufi&cient
flavor without; ornament with sprigs of mint and
seasonable fruits.
