Original Text
Punch, Milk.—Pare very thinly the rinds of twelve lemons and two Seville oranges, and put them into a jar, straining their juice on to them; now add a nutmeg grated, two and a half pounds of broken up loaf sugar, a bottle of brandy, and one and a half of rum, then cover closely, and let it stand for forty-eight hours. Now add to it five pints of water, and a quart of boiling milk. Let it all stand for an hour or so, then strain off through a double jelly bag, and bottle, sealing down closely. It takes about treble this quantity of material to make two dozen bottles of this punch, which keeps well.
