This preparation for soda fountains is made by adding a little strong tincture of orris-root to water, rendered clear, or nearly so, by filtration through magnesium carbonate, and dissolving in the flavored water enough sugar to make a syrup. Tincture of grass may be used as a coloring, if a green tint is desired.
