Mint Julep

Bruise in a bowl a dozen sprigs of mint, 5 tbsps. sugar, 2 tbsps. brandy, and 1 1/2 cups whiskey. Have in another bowl plenty of finely shaved ice. Without touching glasses with the hands put in, a little at a time and alternately, the ice first, and then the whiskey mixture, until glasses are well filled. Garnish with slices of orange and pineapple and sprigs of mint dipped in sugar, and as glasses are well covered with frost serve with straws.
