Sugar to the taste,
The whites of three eggs.
Sweeten the milk to your taste, and to it add wine, if you prefer it. Then whisk the whites of the eggs to a dry froth, and to every egg add one tea spoonful of currant, quince, or any kind of jelly you choose, add also one tea spoonful of white sugar to each white.
Pile the froth upon the milk, and serve it soon, as the whites will fall.
