Snow Cone Syrup

Andrew loves crushed ice.  I found a snow cone machine at a garage sale for $2 and decided to give it a try!  It works really well and gives shaved ice.  Normally Andrew will just eat the ice on his own, but today we decided to make some syrup to go with it!  Luckily for Andrew his Mommy loves Snow Cones, but hates the price of them.  This is a great compromise.

This is an easy recipe and can be a variety of flavors based on what flavor of Kool Aid you pick up!  Today was strawberry, but we have 3 other flavors ready to be made!

Snow Cone Syrup

Ingredients:
3/4 cup of Water
3/4 cup of Sugar
1 packet of Kool Aid

Directions:

1) Make a simple Syrup of the water and sugar by heating the water to a boil and melting the sugar in it.
2)  Slowly mix in the Kool Aid.
3) Place in a container and cool in the fridge for an hour. 
4) Put over your crushed ice and enjoy!
