Cooling Cups and Dainty Drinks by William Terrington (1869, p.187) — Terrington 1869
| 1 bottle | Scotch ale | base |
| 1 lump | ice | other |
| Mixed spice | other | |
| nutmeg | other | |
| 1 slice | toast — toast of bread | other |
- Put the mixed spice and nutmeg on a toast of bread.
- Pour the Scotch ale through a strainer over the toast preparation and onto a lump of ice.
- Drink immediately.
Garnish: Toast of bread.
Ice: Lump ice
This captures one of Terrington's otherwise anonymous but quite distinctive beer-cup constructions.
The strained pour and immediate service matter more here than exact proportions of spice.
