MINT, JULEP, AMERICAN (another way)

Put into a tumbler a dozen leaves of mint, young and fresh, with a tea-spoonful of sugar, and three table-spoonfuls of brandy or whiskey. Put some pounded ice into another tumbler, and pour from one tumbler to another, until the whole is thoroughly flavoured with the mint. A little pineapple juice is an improvement. Drink through a reed. Time, ten minutes. Probable cost 8d. Sufficient for one person.
