Take a half-cupful of granulated sugar, add two tablespoonfuls of water and boil until the sugar is dissolved. Take from the fire, add a teaspoonful of Jamaica ginger and a touch of cream of tartar; mix well and beat until the mixture turns white; then drop on waxed, or oiled paper, in successive drops. After this operation, use a knife and pry the drops up, put them on a. sieve and place in a warm spot until thoroughly dry. The drying should be done slowly, as too much heat will absorb the flavor.
