Lemon Squash

1 lemon

1/2 pint of soda or seltzer

2 rounding teaspoonfuls of powdered sugar

Roll the lemon in the sugar. The better way to do this is to put the sugar on paper and then roll the lemon on it; brush off that which sticks to the outside. Put the sugar in a tumbler, add the juice of the lemon, strained, then the soda or seltzer from a siphon, and serve at once.

Grape Squash

1 quart of grape juice

1/2 cupful of powdered sugar

4 bottles of soda, or 2 siphons of seltzer

The better way to serve this is to get four or five siphons of soda, seltzer or Vichy at the drug store, put the sweetened grape juice in a pitcher, pour the tumbler half full, and fill it up with the carbonated waters.

Combination Squash

This is one of the nicest of all the squashes. It can easily be served for an evening card party or an afternoon reception. For the latter, however, I should use a punch bowl.

Grate the yellow rind of three oranges into two pounds of sugar, add one quart of water, bring to a boil, boil five minutes, strain and cool. Add the juice of the oranges, the juice of three lemons, one grated pineapple, one pound of powdered sugar and one teaspoonful of vanilla. At serving time pour this into your punch bowl over a block of ice; or, for a small party, put it into a pitcher, pour it into tumblers of cracked ice, fill the tumblers with soda water and serve at once. In the punch bowl add the soda or Apollinaris at the last minute, just at serving time.
