Coffee, Essence of, to Prepare

Pour a breakfast-cupful of boiling milk over a dessert-spoonful of the essence of coffee, and stir the mixture until it is smoothly blended. It is a good plan to keep the essence of coffee in the house when anyone is in the habit of leaving early in the morning. With it a comforting cup of coffee may be made with very little trouble in a short time. Sufficient, three dessert-spoonfuls for a breakfast-cupful. Probable cost, 1s. 10d. per pint bottle.
