1. Apple Wine.
Slice a large, tart, cooking apple without peeling it, also a little lemon rind. Put all in a pan with 6 lumps of sugar and 1½-pints of cold water. Let it come slowly to nearly boiling point; draw it back from the fire and simmer slowly for a quarter of an hour. Strain into a jug.
Useful during fevers, and as a summer drink.
