Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 Oz Rock Candy
1 Slice Orange
1 Slice Lemon
2 Cups Blended Or Rye Whisky

Put all ingredients in a jar. There are many differences of opinion on
aging. Some people start using the drink after it has steep overnight.
Traditionally, new batches are not started, but more whiskey or rock
candy is added tothe jar as needed. Since the rockcandy dissolves slowly,
the cordial usually tastes different each time. The fruit slices are
replaced when their appearance deteriorates. More whiskey should be added
or the fruit removed if it reaches bottom and projects above the level of
the liquid. For flaor variation, a little lemon juice is frequently
added, and other types of fruit, especially a few cherries and/or a
pineapple slice are occasionally used.
