Brandy Crusta.
(Use small bar-glass.)
Take 3 or 4 dashes of gum syrup.
Take 1 dash of Boker’s bitters.
Take 1 wine-glass of brandy.
Take 2 dashes of Curacoa.
Take 1 dash lemon juice.
Before mixing the above ingredients, prepare a
cocktail glass as follows:
Brandy Crusta.
Rub a sliced lemon around
the rim of the glass, and dip
it in pulverized white sugar,
so that the sugar will adhere
to the edge of the glass. Pare
half a lemon the same as you
would an apple (all in one
piece) so that the paring will
fit in the wine-glass, as shown
in the cut. Put the above
ingredients into a small
whiskey glass filled one-third full
of shaved ice, shake up well
and strain the liquid into the
cocktail glass prepared as
above directed.
