Ingredients:

2 oz. tartaric acid​
2 lbs. white sugar​
juice of 1/2 a lemon​
3 pints water​

Instructions:

An exchange gives the following recipe from a correspondent, who states that it makes an effervescing drink, but far pleasanter than soda water, inasmuch as you do not have to drink for your life in order to get your money's worth. - The effervescing is much more slow:​
Two ounces tartaric acid: two pounds of white sugar; the juice of half a lemon; three pints of water.​
Boil together five minutes. When nearly cold add the whites of three eggs well beaten with a cup of flour, and a half ounce of essence of Wintergreen. Bottle, and keep in a cold place. Take two tablespoonfuls of this syrup for a tumbler of water, and add one quarter of a tablespoonful of soda.​
