Take the juice of 12 lemons. Put the skins in a pitcher and pour on them 1 quart of boiling tea. Let it stand for ten minutes, add 1 1/2 pounds of sugar and 1 quart of Jamaica rum. Strain and bottle. Corking very tightly, and it will keep for 6 months in a cool place. Do not let the tea draw until it becomes bitter, and if you like it sweet add more sugar.
