  1. Stew a quart of nice green gooseberries in one and a half pints of water, with 5oz. to 6oz. of sugar (this depends on their sweetness, as if very young, more sugar may be needed); when quite tender add to them the juice of a lemon and a few drops of green colouring (mind that the colour is not made too dark), tammy it all, and leave till cold.
  2. When perfectly cold put it into the freezer and freeze to a thick batter, when you add to it a full gill of maraschino, and a good glassful of brandy, freeze, and serve.
