Almond Drink

Put six ounces of ground sweet almonds and two ounces of ground bitter almonds into a saucepan with one quart of water, and let it simmer for a quarter of an hour; then add one pound of loaf sugar, broken small, and when dissolved strain through a bag or sieve. When cold it is ready for use. A table-spoonful of orange-flower water added is a great improvement. One wine-glassful of this mixture put in a tumbler with a bottle of soda water is a most excellent and refreshing drink. Probable cost, 1s. without the soda water.
