Bran Lemonade. Mix one-quarter cup of wheat bran with 2 cups of cold water. Allow this to stand overnight and in the morning add the juice of a lemon.
Pineapple Lemonade. Mix one-half cup of grated pineapple with the juice of 1 lemon and 2 tablespoonfuls of sugar; add one-half cup of boiling water, put on ice until cool, then add 1 cup of ice-cold water. Strain and serve.
Grape Lemonade. To 1 cup of lemonade, made as directed above, rather sweet, add one-half cup of grape juice.
Effervescing Lemonade. To the juice of 1 large lemon add a lump or two of sugar which has been rubbed on the rind. Pour on it half a pint of cold or ice water. Add half a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda after it has been placed in the tumbler.
Orangeade. One orange, 1 teaspoonful of sugar, three-quarters of a coffee cup of water. Wash and wipe the orange. Squeeze the juice into the sugar. Add the cold water which has previously been boiled. Strain.
Apple Water. Slice 1 pound of apples, put in a jar with one-fourth of a pound of brown sugar. Pour over apples and sugar 1 gallon of boiling water. When cool put the apples through a colander. Bottle but do not cork. Keep in a cool place. May be poured over toasted bread.
Mixed Fruit Drink. Mix one-quarter cup of grated pineapple, the juice of half a lemon, the juice of half an orange, 1 cup of boiling water, and sugar to taste. Put on the ice until cool. Strain and add more cold water and sugar according to taste.
Pineapple Juice. Pour one-half cup of pineapple juice over crushed ice and serve in a dainty glass. This is especially helpful in cases of weak digestion and in some throat troubles—as stated above, the pineapple aids protein digestion.
Lemon Whey. Heat 1 cup of milk in a small saucepan, over hot water, or in a double boiler. Add 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice; cook without stirring until the whey separates. Strain through cheesecloth and add two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Serve hot or cold. Garnish with small pieces of lemon.
Wine Whey may be made in the same way, using one-quarter cup of sherry wine to 1 cup of hot milk.
