This exquisite jelly is prepared as follows:-

Dissolve an ounce and a half of isinglass in a quarter of a pint of water, to another quarter of a pint add as much powdered loaf sugar as will make a good thick syrup; squeeze the juice out of a bottleful of Morella cherries; add to it a glass of brandy, a glass of noyeau, and the juice of a lemon and a half: mix all these together; strain through a muslin sieve, and pour itinto a shape, which should be kept in a very cold place till the jelly is required.
