An Extemporary Scorbutic Ale.
Take midling Ale 1 quart; Spirit of Scurvy grass 2 drams; Juniper berries 1 dram; Sweet fennel seed, Liquorice, each half a dram; Raisins 2 drams; keep it in a glass bottle. To these may be added Horse-Radish root 2 scruples; Winters cinnamon 4 scruples.
You may make as many and as few as you please, at a time, so as to have them fresh one under another.
It's in virtues much one with the warm scorbutick Ale, easilier prepar'd, but perhaps somthing inferior in virtue.
