Powders, Lemondade, Effervescing

Take one pound of powdered white sugar, a quarter of a pound of bicarbonate of soda, and one and a half drachms of essence of lemon. Mix these ingredients thoroughly, and divide them between six dozen papers. Take five ounces of tartaric or citric acid, and divide it between the same number of white papers. Use as in the case of Ginger Beer Powders (see POWDERS, GINGER BEER).
