_Cedraty Ice._
TO a gill of cedraty essence, allow the juice of four lemons, a quarter of a pint of clarified sugar, and the same quantity of water, pass it through a lawn sieve.
_Grape Ice._

_Rasberry Water._
TO three quarters of a pound of jam, allow a pint and a quarter of water, and the juice of two lemons; pass it through a hair sieve, and colour it.
_Currant Water._
