Burnt Brandy and Peach.

(Use small bar-glass.)

  • Take 1 wine-glass of Cognac
  • Take 2 lumps of white sugar burnt in a saucer or plate.
  • Take 2 or 3 slices of dried peaches.

Place the dried fruit in a glass and pour the liquid over them.

This drink is very popular in the Southern States, where it is sometimes used as a cure for diarrhea.
