ICED COFFEE OR CHOCOLATE

Ideal Beverages to Be Served at Card Party or Other Informal Entertainment. To serve between games at a card party, try iced coffee or chocolate. For the coffee, make enough of what is known as clear black after-dinner coffee to fill at least two wine or sherbet glasses for each guest. Sweeten this while it is hot and set aside to cool. Then pour It into a large bottle or pitcher and set in a pall or deep kettle, packing ice around IL When ready to serve pour into glasses three-quarters full and heap on top either sweetened and whipped cream, or a tablespoonful of ice cream. Iced Chocolate. —Melt two squares of chocolate in a double boiler and add a cupful of granulated sugar and a cupful of water. Let this mixture cook from the fire, add a teaspoonful of vanilla and set away to chill in a pitcher. When ready to serve half fill a large mixing glass with chopped ice, add two tablespoonfuls of the chocolate sirup, fill up the glass with good sweet milk, cover with a shaker and shake thoroughly, strain into glasses and put whipped cream on top of each. Do not mix more than a large glass of this at a time. It will make three small glasses. This method is much better than boiling the chocolate and milk and then chilling, which usually forms a sediment.
