Pomegranate Water Ice

Take the ruby pips from two ripe pomegranates, place them on a fine sieve over a basin, and bruise them well with the back of a wooden spoon to draw out the juice. With half a pint of this mix half a pint of strong syrup, the juice of a large fresh lemon, two or three drops of cochineal, a table-spoonful of orange-flower water, and two or three large lumps of sugar which have been rubbed upon the rind of an orange, and crushed to powder; freeze in the usual way. Time, about twenty minutes to prepare. Probable cost, best pomegranates, 4d. to 1s. each. Sufficient for a little more than a pint of water ice.
