Boston Cream
From Household cookery and laundry work, 1882
When using it, put into a tumbler about half a salt-spoonful of carbonate of soda, and half fill the tumbler with water, which mix. Pour in a glassful of the cream, when a froth rises to the top immediately, and makes a delicious drink like lemonade.
