WASSAIL BOWL (another way) (Put into a bowl half a pound)
Put into a bowl half a pound of castor sugar, pour on it a pint of warm beer, grate a nutmeg and some ginger into it, add four glassfuls of sherry and five additional pints of beer; stir well, and sweeten to taste. Let the preparation stand covered up for two or three hours, then put into it three or four slices of bread cut thin and toasted brown. Sometimes two or three slices of lemon, and a few lumps of loaf sugar which have been rubbed on the peel of a lemon are introduced.
