light snack is in order, serve it in
the form of a nourishing milk drink.
Mix chilled milk with sugar syrup
snd flavoring, or with molasses,
honey or corn syrup. A dash of plain
carbonated water will give it that
“ice cream soda ftzx,’’ and a bit of
nutmeg dashed on*top will add just
enough spice.

quencher ingredients. But don't for­
get other fresh fruit, too. Press the
juice from ripe plums, peaches, apri­
cots. nectarines or berries by forcing
the fruits through a food press or
coarse sieve. Mix the juice with
water ... or for that added sparkle,
mix it with plain carbonated water.
Add sugar syrup to taste, and serve
