Toast Water

Toast Water


When I feel pooped nothing picks me up like a wholesome glass of Toast water, long has it been the staple for Kids and Invalids across the world, so I was told anyone. My recipe is from 1910.







It is dead easy to make, take a thick crust of bread (at least an inch) and then toast it until brown (or brown it in the oven) make sure it doesn't burn! Then put it in a crock pot and add one pint of cold water. Leave it to sit in a cold place for one hour (the coldest place in our house is the "library") then strain out the bits of bread and your Toast Water is ready for you, your kids, your invalids to enjoy. Serve (in the traditional style) on the rocks.

Toast water is a lovely pale yellow color, smells like toast and tastes like soggy bread (typically I like to drink mine with a large vodka chaser.) Should you drink this? Honestly what do ya think?


After the success of the Calpolian and the Old Spice Old Fashioned this was let-down.
