Knickerbocker.

(Use small bar-glass.)

• Take one-half a lime or small lemon.
• Take 3 tea-spoonfuls of raspberry syrup.
• Take 1 wine-glass of Santa Cruz rum.
• Take 3 dashes of Curaçoa.

Squeeze out the juice of the lime or lemon into the glass, add the rind and the other materials. Fill the glass one-third full of fine ice, shake up well, and strain into a cocktail glass.

If not sufficiently sweet, add a little more syrup.
