Orangeade or Lemonade

Pare the rind thinly from four oranges, and put the rind in a pitcher. Take off and throw away the white slice; then remove the seeds, put with the thin peelings, add an ounce of sugar and a quart of boiling water. Let it stand until cold, setting it on ice if necessary; or bottle and hang down the well. Lemonade is made in the same way by substituting lemons for oranges, and adding more sugar. For ordinary use, either is made by squeezing out the juice, with a squeezer, and adding sugar and ice-water.
