BRUT CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL

Put the number of stem cocktail glasses

that you will need on a tray. Pack each glass

with shaved ice. Place the tray in the ice-box,

and let it stand until you are ready for the

cocktails. Be sure that the outsides of the

glasses have been wiped dry before you fill

them with ice, and afterwards

do

not touch

them with your fingers. If these directions

are followed carefully, the glasses will frost.

When you are ready, shake the ice from

the glasses, place in each one a lump of sugar,

and squirt onto this

a

dash of Angostura

bitters. Now

fill

the glasses with well chilled

champagne.

Roasted unsalted almonds, crushed, mixed

with anchovy paste, and spread upon thin

unsalted crackers develop the luxury of this

cocktail.
