29. Glasgow Punch

Melt lump-sugar in cold water, with the juice of a

couple of lemons, passed through a fine hair-strainer. This

is sherbet, and must be well mingled. Then add old

Jamaica rum-one part of rum to five of sherbet. Cut

a couple of limes in two, and run each section rapidly

around the edge of the jug or bowl, gently squeezing in

some of the delicate acid. This done, the punch is made.

Imbibe.
