Coffee with Whipped Cream
Pour into each cup enough sugar to properly sweeten the coffee, and one tablespoonful or a little more of boiling milk. Have prepared some whipped cream, one pint whisked to a froth being required for a dozen cups of coffee. Fill the cups partly full with hot coffee, lay on top of each a spoonful or two of the whipped cream, stir it gently, and serve. Tea: How Made.
Black, green and Oolong tea are prepared as follows. First, never allow the teapot or other utensils kept for the preparation of tea to be used for any other purpose, and they should always be kept scrupulously clean. Place one ounce of tea in a teapot, with two gills of boiling water, and infuse for ten minutes, then add to this eight gills of boiling water, and after the lapse of a few minutes, stir with a teaspoon and allow it to stand. It should be served with sugar and cream.
Iced Tea, French Style Place in a teapot three tablespoonfuls of tea, pour over two and one-half quarts of boiling water, and turn it into a freezer. Sweeten with three tablespoonfuls of sugar, tightly cover the freezer, place it in a tub containing broken ice and salt a little higher than the height of the tea, turn it sharply by the handle, all round in different directions for five or six minutes, wipe the cover of the freezer well, to prevent any ice falling in, and with the aid of a ladle pour it into a cold pitcher or jar. Send to the table in glasses with slices of lemon, and sugar separately.
