Food - Homemade Icee Syrup

Homemade Cherry Icee

Icees are so easy to make!  It seems CRAZY that I never thought to do a blog post about them until now!

Icee Syrup Ingredients

Homemade Icee Syrup

1 pkg unsweetened Kool-aid (any flavor)
1 c. sugar
1 c. tap water


In a saucepan combine water, sugar and Kool Aid Powder. Cook over low heat until sugar is melted.  Stir.  Set aside to cool.  The syrup will thicken slightly as it cools.

Done!

Drizzle as much syrup as you like over shaved ice.

Ice shavers are cheap and easy to find.  I got mine from Target YEARS ago for less than $20.  It's so easy to operate that my kids use it to make icees for their friends.

PRO TIP:
You can use this syrup to make fruit flavored soda (pop if you're from the midwest).

To make soda, drizzle icee syrup over ice cubes.

Tropical Punch Soda

Fill the glass with seltzer or ginger ale

Homemade Soda Pop

YUMMY Fruit Flavored soda pop!


SUPER PRO TIP:

Use flavored seltzer for an extra kick!  I recently discovered coconut flavored seltzer.  It makes our homemade soda taste like the cream soda from my childhood!
