- 3 gills of sugar
- 10 oranges
- 1 lemon
- 1-1/2 pints of water
Steps
- Grate the thin yellow rind of three oranges into a bowl. Squeeze the juice of two oranges on this and let the mixture stand for an hour or more. Boil the sugar and water together for thirty minutes. Add the orange and lemon juice to this. Strain the juice in which the rind has been soaking, and add to the mixture. Freeze.
