 Fill up the glass with porter, and stir. Serve with a little grated nutmeg on top.

 

This is the same as the Porter Sangaree.

 

Take 1 wine-glass of Port wine.

1 tea-spoonful of sugar.

Fill tumbler one-third full with hot water, and grate a little nutmeg on top before serving.

 

To every pint of Port wine allow:

1 quart of boiling water.

¼ of a pound of loaf-sugar.

1 lemon.

Grated nutmeg to taste.

Put the wine into a jug, rub some lumps of sugar (equal to one-quarter of a pound) on the lemon rind until all the yellow part of the skin is absorbed, then squeeze the juice and strain it. Add the sugar and lemon-juice to the Port wine, with the grated nutmeg; pour over it the boiling water, cover the jug, and when the beverage has cooled a little, it will be fit for use.
