"WHAT SHALL WE DRINK ?”
in which he says
The great question of these tropical days in What Shull We Drink?" I think all medical men are agreed that the less alcohol we consume is hot weather the better for us: Even light bour will be preferable in this sanse.to ordinary ales, and stout is not to be thought of if we wish to keep moderately cool."
For those who are engaged all day let me recommend a novel combination-I then a little Bovril (cold.of course), made in the orlinery way, and added soda water. I have found this drink sustaining and pleasant."
