BITTERS (Appetiser)

Take one ounce of Seville orange peel, half an ounce of gentian root, and a quarter of an ounce of cardamoms husked. Crush the cardamoms with the gentian root. Put them in a wide-mouthed bottle, and cover with brandy or whisky. Let the mixture remain twelve days, then strain, add one ounce of lavender drops, and bottle off for use.
