MIXING THE ST.CHARLESPUNCH
Gracious! Here's one of my long ago favorites! The St.
CharlesPunch will please you,too,I'll wager. Try this:Pour
into shaker holding ice, a pony of brandy, two ounces of
Port wine, a tablespoon of lemon juice and "gum" to taste.
Shake well and pour into goblet, filling it with finely crushed
ice. Top off with your favorite fruits or berries, add just one
more dash of Port wine and put your straw or glass sipper
into the mixture ready for a treat!
Your own ingenuity, after you study these punch recipes,
will undoubtedly lead you on to the devising of even more
enjoyable mixtures. Variations in the use of cordials and
flavoring syrups will suggest themselves. At least, you'll
enjoy those in this array from the master-mixers of the
yesterdays.
