Stewed Pomegranates

Cut into halves about four pomegranates and take out all of the grains, placing the small ones in a cloth and pressing out all of the juice into a saucepan, mix in with it an equal quantity of water, and about four ounces of loaf-sugar, stirring continually over a slow fire until it has become quite thick, and then remove from the fire to cool; arrange the pomegranates in a dish and pour over the syrup, sprinkling in a few drops of essence of orange-water, put in a few small pieces of ice, and serve.
