Apple Brandy

Apple brandy is a spirit made wholesale in the United States from apples, and is more familiarly known as Apple Jack. To five barrels of good rectified spirit, add one gallon of syrup of gum-arabic, one pound of oil of apple and half a pound of oil of pear. Let it remain for some time in the barrel, then stir well, and filter.
