Note 98 — PEPTIC PRECEPTS.
Reading edition
Quintessence of Lemon Peel, (No. 418).—Best oil of Lemon, one drachm,—strongest rectified Spirit, two ounces, introduced by degrees, till the spirit kills and completely mixes with the oil. This elegant and useful preparation, possesses all the delightful fragrance and flavour of the freshest Lemon Peel—for which you will find it a satisfactory substitute. A few drops on the Sugar you make Punch with, will instantly impregnate it with as much flavour as the troublesome and tedious method of rubbing the sugar on the rind.
