Mix these ingredients and serve at once; or give the punch a froth by pouring the mixture from one bowl to another, holding the bowl high as the liquid is poured from it.
Egg Tea.
1 gill of hot water or milk.
1 tablespoonful of powdered sugar.
1 egg.
Beat the white of the egg to a stiff dry froth, and beat the sugar into it. Next add the yolk of the egg, and beat well. Pour the hot milk or water on this, and serve. If you choose, a little nutmeg or wine may be added to the mixture.
Eggnog.
Eggnog is made the same as egg tea, using cold milk and a tablespoonful of brandy, wine, or rum.
Rice Water.
1/2 gill of rice.
