Shave off the yellow rind of the lemon, place the sugar in a jug, put
the rind in a strainer, and pour 1 pint of boiling water over it on to
the sugar. Squeeze the lemons through a strainer, add to them 1 pint of
cold water, then mix all together.
Mutton Broth.
This broth is made just like that on page 5, but no rice or barley
should be thrown in. The broth should be strained through a sieve, and
served with sippets of toast. Special care should be taken to have it
entirely free from fat.
Toast Water.
Toast a _crust_ of bread carefully all over, but do not burn it black.
Fill a jug with boiling water, _then_ put in the toast. A bright liquid
the colour of sherry will be the result.
