Cucumber Lotion
Method
Peel 1 or 2 large cucumbers, cut them into slices, and place them in a double boiler, which should be closely covered. Cook them slowly until they are soft. Then put the pieces into a fine linen bag and squeeze them until all the juice has been extracted.
Add to the extracted juice one-fourth of rectified spirits of wine (or whisky) and one third of elder-flower water. Shake the mixture well and pour into small bottles ready for use.
