ICE CREAM AND DRINKS
SODA WATER
Take 2 ounces of tartaric acid, the juice of 1 lemon, 2 pounds of white sugar, 3 pints of water; boil together 5 minutes. When nearly cold, add, after beating together, the whites of 3 eggs, 1/2 cup of flour made smooth with a little water, and 1 ounce of wintergreen essence. Mix well, put in glass jars or pint bottles and keep in a cool place. For a drink, take 2 tablespoonfuls of the syrup to 2/3 tumbler of cold water, and 1/2 teaspoonful of soda. Stir until creamy with foam. This is very refreshing in hot weather.
