Freeze the preparation in a freezer packed in salted ice after the usual manner, and when smooth and consistent incorporate four Italian meringue egg-whites (No. 140); beat again slowly and add two gills of liqueur or cordial, such as rum, kirsch, prunelle, maraschino, kimmel, etc. Let become consistent once more and serve.
