63. WHIPT SYLLABUB.

Rub a lump of loaf sugar on the outside of a lemon, and put it into a

pint of thick cream, and sweeten it to taste. Squeeze in the juice of

a lemon, and add a glass of Madeira wine, or French brandy. Mill it

to a froth with a chocolate mill, take off the froth as it rises, and

lay it in a hair sieve. Fill one half of the glass with red wine,

then lay the froth as high as possible, but take care that it is well

drained in the sieve, otherwise it will mix with the wine, and the

syllabub be spoiled.
