Seville Orange Syrup

Squeeze the oranges through a fine sieve; to every pint of juice add a pound and a quarter of fine loaf sugar; stir it all up together in a large earthen pan; skim it twice a day till the sugar is all dissolved, which will take about nine days. It should be kept in a cool place all the time. Then bottle it. A table-spoonful in a glass of water makes a pleasant drink, and it can also be used in the making of orange jelly or cream.
