Materials

  • 1.5 cups sugar
  • 1.5 cup water
  • 1 powdered drink packet like a Kool-Aid or Lemonade packet or extract flavor

Instructions

  • Boil the sugar and water, mixing until dissolved
  • Place on simmer for about 3 minutes - you'll see the mixture thicken up a bit
  • Remove from heat and add your flavoring - Kool-Aid packet
  • Mix ingredients together
  • Place in the refrigerator to chill
  • Pour into the squeezable container for kids to enjoy

Notes

Non- Boiling method:

  • Make a syrup with one part sugar - one part warm water
  • Just put the mixture in a container with a lid & let the kids shake it up until sugar is dissolved
  • Add a kool-aid packet for flavor, or flavor extract and food coloring
  • *I just tried this recipe to make sure it tastes good and is really like the snow cone syrup. We love it!
Alternative Flavors for syrup:
I have not tried making syrup with food extracts, but I have heard that they work. Add one or two drops to flavor sugar and water syrup
