Red Grape Ice

5 pints of red Tokay grapes (4 pounds.) 1 1/2 pints of water. 1 1/2 pounds of sugar. 1 lemon and 1 orange. 4 whites of eggs.

Select about a fourth part of the grapes to be dropped whole into the ice at last. Scald the rest in a syrup made of the sugar and part of the water and rub the pulp through a strainer together with the syrup and pour over the skins the remaining portion of water, add the juice of the lemon and freeze as usual. If to line a mould the whites of eggs may be omitted and a little red fruit juice or coloring can be added to make a more positive color, but for serving in glasses add the whites whipped firm and beat the ice till smooth and foamy. Cut the orange in strips, without peeling, and strew them in the ice, also the reserved grapes and cover down to freeze firm.
