Lemon Water Ice


Lemon Water Ice...





One half of a box of gelatin dissolved in one pint cold water. Take the juice of eight lemons and mix with one and one-quarter pounds of white sugar, then one quart of hot water on the sugar and lemons; pour one and one-half pints of boiling water (USE CAUTION AND PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT!), over the gelatin, and when it is quite dissolved, add to the rest of the ingredients. Strain and set away to cool; when cold, whip fifteen minutes and freeze.
