A Cool Beverage.

Take rhubarb, one pound to a little more than a gallon of water, boil until soft, wash through a colander, then boll up again with one gallon of cold water, three lemons sliced and bruised, with half pound of sugar or little more. A mixture of red currants and raspberries bruised with half a pound of sugar well strained into gallon of water will make an excellent drink and allay thirst. To Vender them more cooling a little cream of tartar or citric acid may be added.
