Needed:

• 1 tsp Kool-aid (any flavor)

(if you don't have one of these, use a bag and something to smash the ice with)

* To make the syrup for your snow cones, add kool-aid, sugar, and water to a pan. Warm on medium heat until the sugar is all melted. Once it is melted let cool for 10 minutes. (can melt ice if you pour it on the shavings while hot) 


Directions : 
If using a snow cone maker, put ice in the top compartment and start turning the handle until you get the desired ice. * If using a bag and something to smash the ice with: put the desired amount of ice in the bag and start crushing until you get the consistency of shaved ice.
