ORIENTAL PUNCH.
- Juice of 2 lemons.
- Juice of 3 oranges.
- 6 to 8 drops of peppermint.
- Green coloring.
- 3 quarts of water.
Mix the water, lemon juice, and orange juice together, and add enough sugar to sweeten to suit the taste. Then strain it and add enough green coloring to make it a very pale green; then add the peppermint, which will give it a peculiar flavor that is very fine.
Claret punch may be made in the same manner, only leave out the peppermint and green coloring, and in their place add enough claret to flavor and color it. Serve these cold.
