LYNN HAYS:
A snowy frost on the glass In
which you serve your cooling
summer drinks is very attrac­
tive and simple to make. All
you do is dip the top of the glass
before it is fllled Into slightly
beaten egg white und then into
granulated sugar, Allow to dry
thoroughly before using,
If you'd like a true frost for
the glass try a drink which is
guaranteed to have one. Such
arc the old-fashioned “granite”
which may be of any flavor you
desire. The granit is a half­
frozen drink which is put in the
refrigerator or freezer until a
light snow-frost appears, but
leaves the drink still liquid
enough to pour.
For a strawberry granit, mash
a quart of berries and cover with
1 Mi pounds of sugar, then set
aside for several hours to let a
syrup form.
Drain and press
through a sieve. Add 1 table­
spoon of strawberry extract, then
mix with 1 pint of water. Freeze
until the top is snow-frosted and
serve in long, thin glasses.
