Ale Flip

Put into a saucepan three pints of ale, a table-spoonful of sugar, a blade of mace, a clove, and a small piece of butter, and bring the liquid to a boil. Beat the white of one egg and the yolks of two thoroughly, mixing with them a table-spoonful of cold ale. Mix all together, and then pour the whole rapidly from one large jug to another from a good height, for some minutes, to froth it thoroughly, but do not allow it to get cool. Probable cost, 1s. 4d. Sufficient for five or six persons.
