Strawberry Granito à la Persane.—Stalk and
crush one and a half pounds of strawberries, put
them in a basin with the juice of a lemon, and a tea-
spoonful of orange flower water, and pour on to them
one and a half pints of cold water. Let it all stand
for three hours, then wring it through a muslin
to extract every drop of juice, add to it a sugar
syrup made by boiling a pound of loaf sugar to half
a pint of water, strain into the freezer and freeze,
adding before finishing some whole fresh straw-
berries, marinaded in sugar and lemon juice.
The above directions show sufficiently how this
particular ice is made; so it is easy to vary the kinds
to taste, using any water ice recipe, in accordance
with the foregoing directions. They make excellent
refreshments for tennis parties, etc., as the fact of
their being irregularly iced renders them easy to
make in any home-made icing machine or freezing
pot.
