Punch, Andalouse

Cut three good-sized oranges into equal halves, and with a spoon remove all the pulp and place in a bowl. Cut off a piece of the skin at the bottom of each half orange so they will stand on a dish without rolling. Squeeze the pulp of the oranges into a bowl, as well as the juice of three lemons; add half pound granulated sugar and one quart lukewarm water. Sharply mix with the spatula for five minutes. Strain through a cheesecloth into an ice-cream freezer. Set the freezer in a tub with broken ice and rock salt all around. Cover the freezer and proceed to freeze for thirty minutes. When ready pour in two tablespoons of curacao and lightly mix. With a small knife make dentilated incisions all around the brim of each half orange shell. Divide the punch equally into the six shells. Dress on a dish with a folded napkin and serve.
