Good Party Drink, Using Tree Tomatoes
Dear Aunt Daisy, I thought perhaps that some of your many readers might be glad to have the recipe for a really very nice non-alco-holic drink. It is a concoction of my own and has been most popular when I have "turned it on." The quantities may be varied to suit the size of the party, but the following recipe will fill at least twelve good sized glasses. Take 114 Ibs. of tree tomatoes (the red ones, NOT the yellow ones) and simmer them gently in 1% pints of water and 4 or 5 large tablespoons of sugar, until the pulp is quite soft. Strain the juice and put aside to cool; then add the juice of one or two lemons, and any other fruit juice you may happen to have; or the juice of a tin of Spineapple if you are using the pineapple for another purpose. Then, just before serving, add 2 bottles of ginger ale to give it " pep," and believe me, dear Aunt Daisy, the result is decidedly pleasing to both the eye and the palate. And don’t waste the pulp-Oh, no. Remove the skins and place the fruit in a glass bowl; pour a Flummery over it, and decorate with whipped cream, and there you have a nice sweets dish for the party, too. The Flummery is easily made with a good jelly allowed to become cold, but not ‘set, then whipped to a froth. Whip up separately, a small tin of unsweetened condensed milk. Add to the beaten jelly, beat again and it is then ready to pour over the fruit. -Diana (Wellington). An excellent idea, Diana, and economical, too. ‘
