Punch a la Romaine.
(For a party of fifteen.)
- Take 1 bottle of rum.
- Take 1 bottle of wine.
- Take 10 lemons.
- Take 2 sweet oranges.
- Take 2 pounds of powdered sugar.
- Take 10 eggs.
Dissolve the sugar in the juice of the lemons and oranges, adding the thin rind of one orange; strain through a sieve into a bowl, and add by degrees the whites of the eggs beaten to a froth. Place the bowl on ice for a while, then stir in briskly the rum and the wine.
