A tray is brought to the hostess bearing a coffee urn, a silver bowl with a wide mouth, a small ladle, a little flask of brandy, a small dish of loaf sugar, another of whole spices, and still another with the peel of a mandarin orange minced fine.
Put in the bowl a lump of sugar for each person, a tablespoonful of whole cloves, three stalks of cinnamon broken up, and the orange peel. Cover all this with the brandy, light it, let it burn, stirring it occasionally.
When the flame disappears, pour in the coffee, which must be black and strong, till the bowl is full. Stir once more and ladle out the brew into coffee cups.
The only thing to make this a complete success is the wide mouthed bowl. Be sure to use one in which the heat is not confined.
