Well, it seems springtime in Nebraska has finally come, along with it's weather extremes of 70 degrees and tornado watches one day and snow the next. It's also time for me to wrap up some of my strictly cold weather projects, such as candle making or major ironing (mostly the projects that add heat to the household, which is very helpful in cold weather but not so much when the air conditioning gets turned on).
It's also time for me to break out a very simple but yummy recipe. I love sno cones and have an ice shaver, but I can't always find the syrup to go on them, so I came up with a good substitute that's fast and simple. The nice thing is I can make it anytime, and in just about any flavor.
Sno Cone Syrup
1 cup water
1 1/2 cups sugar
unsweetened powdered drink mix, such as Kool Aide
Combine water and sugar in small saucepan. Heat over med. heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is completely dissolved. (Do not boil!). Remove from heat and stir in drink mix. Cool and put in squirt bottle. Unused syrup can be refrigerated. Enjoy :)
