Directions

1

Pour four quarts of boiling water on one and a half ounces of ginger, one ounce cream of tartar, one pound brown sugar, and two lemons sliced thin ; put in two gills yeast, and let ferment twenty-four hours, then bottle. It improves to keep a few weeks unless very hot weather, and it is a very nice beverage.
