Default Repointing 1875 field stone foundation

There are holes in the foundation to the outside through which I can
put my fist, or my flat hand!

What proporation of portland cement, sand, and lime(?) should I use???
Or should I just buy some pre-mixed material from a big box store.
Thanks for your thoughts, as I have not idea what to buy!
