Cups.
Some connaisseurs claim that, properly speaking, the difference between a punch and a cup is that in a punch sugar and lemon juice are used and a longer brewing is required, while a cup may be quickly made without sugar or lemon juice, merely slicing into it a little fruit of different kinds.
However, this is a matter of taste. Our experience is that the addition of a little sugar and lemon juice to a cup is an improvement and generally preferred.
Champagne Cup
One-half pint of red curaçao, one gill green chartreuse, one-half pint of brandy, juice of six lemons and a quarter of a pound of loaf sugar. Brew as per general directions; pour in your pitcher over the ice, and lastly add one quart of apollinaris and three pints of champagne.
