=Creme de Cedrat.= _Syn._ HUILE DE CEDRAT. _Prep._ From spirit of citron, 1 pint; spirit of cedrat, 1 quart; proof spirit, 3 quarts; white sugar, 16 lbs., dissolved in pure soft water, 2 galls.

=Creme de Macarons.= _Prep._ 1. From cloves, cinnamon, and mace, of each (bruised) 1 dr.; bitter almonds (blanched and beaten to a paste), 7 oz.; spirit (17 u. p.), 1 gall.; digest a week, filter, and add of white sugar, 6 lbs., dissolve in pure water, 2 quarts.

2. Clean spirit (at 24 u. p., sp. gr. 945), 2 galls.; bitter almonds, 3/4 lb.; cloves, cinnamon, and mace, of each in coa.r.s.e powder, 1-1/2 dr.; infuse for 10 days, filter, and add of white sugar, 8 lbs.; dissolved in pure water, 1 gall.; lastly, give the liqueur a violet tint with infusion or tincture of litmus and cochineal. An agreeable, nutty-flavoured cordial, but, from containing so much bitter almonds, should be only drank in small quant.i.ties at a time. The English use only one half the above quant.i.ty of almonds.

=Creme de Naphe.= _Prep._ From sweetened spirit (60 u. p.) containing 3-1/2 lbs. of sugar per gall., 7 quarts; orange-flower water (foreign), 1 quart. Delicious.

It is coloured by digesting in it for a week or 10 days Brazil-wood (in powder), 1 oz., and afterwards mellowing the colour with burnt sugar, q. s.

=Delight of the Mandarins.= From spirit (22 u. p.), 1 gall.; pure soft water, 1/2 gall.; white sugar (crushed small), 4-1/2 lbs.; Chinese aniseed and ambrette or musk seed, of each (bruised) 1/2 oz.; safflower, 1/4 oz.; digested together in a carboy or stone bottle capable of holding double, and agitated well every day for a fortnight.

=Eau de Cedrat.= _Syn._ CEDRAT WATER. As CReME DE CEDRAT, but using less sugar.

=Eau de Cha.s.seurs.= See PEPPERMINT (_below_).

=Eau de Vie d'Andaye.= _Syn._ EAU DE VIE D'ANIS; ANISEED LIQUEUR BRANDY.

This cordial was once held in much esteem.

It derives its name from a small quant.i.ty of gold leaf being formerly added to it.

=Huile d'Anis.= See CReME D'ANIS (_above_).

=Huile de Vanille.= Flavoured with essence or tincture of vanilla. It is kept in a decanter, and used to flavour liqueurs, grog, &c.

=Huile de Venus.= _Prep._ From the flowers of the wild carrot, 2-1/2 oz., and sugar, 3 lbs. to the gall. It is generally coloured by infusing a little powdered cochineal in it.

=Jargonelle.= _Syn._ JARGONELLE CORDIAL. Flavoured with essence of jargonelle pear (acetate of amyl). Pine-apple cordial and liqueurs from some other fruits are also prepared from the new fruit essences. See ESSENCE.

=Lem'on Cordial.= _Prep._ Digest fresh and dried lemon peel, of each 2 oz., and fresh orange peel, 1 oz., in proof spirit, 1 gall., for a week; strain with expression, add of clear soft water q. s. to reduce it to the desired strength, and lump sugar, 3 lbs. to the gallon.

In some parts a little fresh valerian root and oil of savine are added before distillation. It is much valued by the lower cla.s.ses in some of the provinces for its stomachic and emmenagogue qualities.

=Oil of Ce'drat.= See CReME DE CEDRAT (_above_).

=Orange Cordial.= Like LEMON CORDIAL or CReME D'ORANGE, from fresh orange peel, 1/2 lb., to the gallon.

=Parfait Amour.= _Syn._ PERFECT LOVE. _Prep._ Flavoured with the yellow rind of 4 lemons, and a teaspoonful of essence of vanilla to the gallon, with sugar, 3 lbs., and powdered cochineal q. s. to colour.

=Pep'permint.= _Syn._ PEPPERMINT CORDIAL, SPORTSMAN'S C., X. MINT; EAU DE CHa.s.sEURS, Fr. This well-known compound is in greater demand in every part of the kingdom than all the other cordials put together.

_Prep._ 1. From peppermint water and gin or plain spirit (22 u. p.), of each 1 pint; lump sugar, 3/4 lb.

2. (Wholesale.) English oil of peppermint, 5 oz., is added to rectified spirits of wine, 3 pints, and the mixture is agitated well together for some time in a corked bottle capable of holding 4 pints or more; it is then emptied into a cask having a capacity of upwards of 100 galls., and perfectly white and flavourless proof spirit, 36 galls., is poured in, and the whole well agitated for ten minutes; a solution of the best double refined lump sugar, 2-3/4 cwt., in about 35 galls. of pure filtered rain water, is then added, and the contents of the cask well 'rummaged up' in the usual manner for at least 15 minutes; sufficient clear rain water to make up the whole quant.i.ty to exactly 100 gallons, and holding in solution alum, 5 oz., is next added, and the whole is again well agitated for at least a quarter of an hour, after which the cask is bunged down, and allowed to repose for a fortnight before it is 'broached' for sale.

_Obs._ The last formula produces a beautiful article provided the ingredients are of good quality. Care on this point is particularly necessary in reference to the essential oil, which should only be purchased of some known respectable dealer. The sugar should be sufficiently pure to dissolve in a wine-gla.s.sful of clear soft water without injuring its transparency, and the cask should be a fresh-emptied gin pipe, or one properly prepared for gin, as, if it gives colour, it will spoil the cordial. When these particulars are attended to, the product is a bright transparent liquor as soon as made, and does not require fining. Should there be the slightest opacity, the addition of 2 oz. of salt of tartar, dissolved in a quart of hot water, will have the effect of 'clearing it down' in the course of a few days. The product is 100 galls. of cordial at 64 u. p.

=Pimen'to.= _Syn._ PIMENTO CORDIAL, PIMENTO DRAM. Rather strongly flavoured with allspice or pimento. It has obtained a great repute in the West Indies in diarrha, cholera, and bowel complaints generally.

=Rasp'berry Cordial.= _Prep._ From raspberry brandy, capillaire, and water, equal parts. A similar article is prepared by flavouring sweetened spirit with the new 'raspberry essence.'

=Rat'ifia.= The numerous liqueurs bearing this name are noticed in another part of this volume. See RATIFIA.

=Shrub.= See the article SHRUB in another part of this work.

=Sighs of Love.= _Prep._ 1. From proof spirit flavoured with otto of roses and capillaire, equal parts.

2. From sugar, 6 lbs., pure soft water, q. s. to produce a gallon of syrup, to which add, of eau de rose, 1 pint; proof spirit, 7 pints. It is stained of a pale pink by powdered cochineal. A very pleasant cordial. A drop or two (not more) of essence of ambergris or vanilla improves it.

=Tears of the Widow of Malabar.= _Prep._ As BALM OF MOLUCCA, but employing cloves (bruised), 1/2 oz., mace (shredded), 1 dr., and a teaspoonful of essence of vanilla for flavouring. Some add of orange-flower water, 1/4 pint. It is slightly coloured with burnt sugar.

=Tent.= From plain spirit (22 u. p.) and port wine, of each 1 quart; sherry and soft water, of each 1 pint; orange-flower water and lemon juice, of each 1/4 pint; essence of ambergris, 2 drops (not more); sugar, 2 lbs. See WINE.

=Us'quebaugh.= See the article USQUEBAUGH in another part of this work.

=LIQUEUR DE LA MOTTE.= [Fr.] See DROPS (Golden) and TINCTURE.

=LIQUEUR DOReE.= [Fr.] _Prep._ Take of cinnamon, bitter orange peel, and Peruvian bark, of each 1/2 oz.; hay saffron, 1/4 oz.; brandy and Malaga wine, of each 3 quarts; digest for a week, strain, and add of lump sugar, 2 lbs. Tonic, stomachic, and stimulant; chiefly used as an agreeable alcoholic dram.

=LIQUEUR DE PRESSAVIN.= [Fr.] _Prep._ From oxide of mercury (freshly precipitated) and cream of tartar, of each 1 oz.; hot water, 1 quart; dissolve and filter. For use 2 spoonfuls of this liquor are added to 1 quart of water.--_Dose._ A wine-gla.s.sful 3 or 4 times a day, avoiding the use of common salt. This is simply a solution of pota.s.sio-tartrate of mercury, and may be taken in the usual cases in which mercury is administered.

=LIQUODIN'NA.= See LIQUEUR.

=LIQUID-AMBAR.= _Syn._ COPAIBae BALSAM. A fluid balsamic juice obtained from the _Liquidamber styraciflua_, an American tree. It closely resembles LIQUID STORAX in its properties, and may be applied to the same purposes.

See STYRAX.

=LIQ'UOR.= _Syn._ LIQUOR, L.; LIQUEUR, Fr. This term is given in the London Pharmacopia to those aqueous solutions commonly though improperly called 'WATERS,' ammoniae liquor pota.s.sae, &c. It is now more correctly applied to the 'WATERS' of the British Pharmacopia. See SOLUTION.

The term 'liquor' has also, of late years, been applied to certain concentrated preparations, most of which would be more correctly termed 'FLUID EXTRACTS,' as they merely differ from good extracts in their consistence, and from ordinary extracts in containing less starchy matter, alb.u.men, and gum. There is also usually a little spirit added to them to prevent decomposition. Liquors of this kind may be prepared of the finest quality by the same processes that are required for the preparation of good soluble extracts; observing to stop the evaporation as soon as the consistence of treacle is acquired, and when cold, to add 1-4th or 1-5th part of their weight (after evaporation) in rectified spirit. The addition of 3 or 4 drops of the oils of cloves and mustard seed, dissolved in the spirit, will secure them from any risk of 'moulding' or fermenting; in fact, with this addition many of them will keep well without spirit, provided they are evaporated sufficiently, and kept in a cool place. The liquors, which are merely concentrated infusions or decoctions, and which, in their consistence, do not even approximate to extracts, may be made in the manner directed under those heads.

Much confusion would be prevented if the terms 'concentrated decoction,'

'concentrated infusion,' &c., were adopted for those vegetable preparations possessing eight times the usual strength; 'liquors' for those of a higher strength, but still sufficiently liquid to be treated as such in dispensing, &c.; and 'fluid extracts' for those possessing considerable consistence, and approaching the common extracts in their degree of concentration and mode of preparation. See DECOCTION, INFUSION, ESSENCE, EXTRACT, SOLUTION, &c.

? The following formulae present some ill.u.s.trations of the preparation of this cla.s.s of medicines.

=Liquor of Ammonia.= _Syn._ LIQUOR AMMONIae. _Prep._ Strong solution of ammonia, 1 pint; distilled water, 2 pints; mix and preserve in a stoppered bottle. Sp. gr. 959.

=Liquor of Ammonia, Stronger.= _Syn._ LIQUOR AMMONIae FORTIOR. _Prep._ Mix chloride of ammonium in coa.r.s.e powder 3 lbs., and slaked lime 4 lbs., and introduce the mixture into an iron bottle, placed in a metal pot surrounded by sand. Connect the iron tube which screws air-tight into the bottle in the usual manner, by corks, gla.s.s tubes, and caoutchouc collars, with a Woulf's bottle capable of holding a pint; connect this with a second Woulf's bottle of the same size, the second bottle with a matra.s.s of the capacity of three pints, in which 22 oz. of distilled water are placed, and the matra.s.s by means of a tube bent twice at right angles, with an ordinary bottle containing distilled water 10 oz. Bottles 1 and 2 are empty, and the latter and the matra.s.s which contains the 22 oz. of distilled water are furnished each with a siphon safety-tube charged with a very short column of mercury.
