55. Nuremburgh Punch

(For a party of fifteen)

Take three-quarters of a pound of loaf-sugar, press

upon it, through muslin, the juice of two more good–

sized oranges; add a little of the peel, cut very thin, pour

upon a quart of boiling water, the third part of that

quantity of Batavia arrack, and a bottle of hot, but not

boiling, red or white wine-red is the best. Stir together.

This is excellent when cold, and will improve by age.
