INSTRUCTIONS
Chuck all ingredients in large pot EXCEPT for the sugar. Cover, simmer
gently for 10 mins, taste. Now add 2 teaspoons of sugar per person (level,
NOT heaped). Simmer for 10 mins.
Place lemon slices in glass mugs and ladle the concoction into glasses. The
lemon must float. If not, discard lemon and cut new slices. The secret is
to drink the hot mixture through the lemon; it gives a very distinctive
flavour.
CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW THE MIXTURE TO BOIL!!!! After all, you wouldn't want
all that alcohol to evaporate, would you?
