Lemonade, Effervescing

Boil two pounds of loaf sugar in a pint of strained lemon-juice until the sugar is dissolved. Pour the syrup out, and when it is cold put it into bottles, and cork closely. When wanted for use, put a table-spoonful into a tumbler three-parts full of cold water. Stir in briskly twenty grains of carbonate of soda, and drink during effervescence. Probable cost, 2s. 6d. Sufficient for a little more than a quart of syrup.
