Make a Snow Cone Syrup
Making snow cones is a fun and delicious way to treat the summer blues. You might have an ice crusher, but what if you can't find any syrup flavoring? This is a stupid easy way to do it with household products.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of light corn syrup.
- 2-3 packets of Kool Aid powder.
- Water
- Sugar (optional)
Steps
- Pour the corn syrup in a canister.
- Add about a half packet of your favorite kool-aid.
- Stir in a lot of water until its thick. (2-4oz.)
- Add more kool-aid or sugar according to taste.
- Boil and set in fridge to cool.
- Pour into snow and enjoy!
Tips
- The syrup mixture may taste bad before it's in the snow cone. This is normal.
- Stir with an unused Popsicle stick or coffee stirrer so you don't have to wash a goopy sticky spoon, and so you don't waste the mixture on the spoon.
- If you don't have light corn syrup, you can use 1 1/4 cups of granulated sugar dissolved in 1/4 cup of water.
Warnings
- This can get pretty messy, so clean any spills quickly and with a dry towel.
