Mix together half a pint of noyau; a pint of sherry or other white
wine; the yellow peel of four lemons, pared thin; and half an
ounce of mace. Put the whole into a large bottle, and let it stand
for two or three weeks. Then strain it, and add half a pint of
capillaire or strong sugar syrup; or of Curacoa. Bottle it, and it
will keep two or three years. It may be used for various sweet
dishes, but chiefly for pudding-sauce mixed with melted butter.
