Read detailsYesterday was a snow day for us here in St. Louis and my kids LOVE to make Snow Ice-cream and Snow Cones! Since all my friends out in Eastern USA are expecting LOTS of snow, I thought it would be a great time to share how to make your own Snow Cone Syrup in case you have a snow day soon too!
There is no reason to purchase those big bottles of syrup when you can make it yourself!! It’s fast and easy and everything is better when you make it yourself ;-)
We lived for several years in Minnesota, so my kids are no strangers to snow. When we get a snow day here, they don’t really care to go play in it, because according to them “It’s not even enough, mom!” They are so used to feet and feet and FEET that when we get a few inches, they’d much rather just make things to EAT with it!
Here I dug up a few pictures of some snow days in MN. When my family from St. Louis would visit, my dad had to shovel a path to the swing set in the backyard because pushing my boys on the swings was their thing they did and 4.5 feet of snow was not going to stop them!

Again this is so easy (because it has to be for me to actually make these days!) it only has 3 ingredients…4 if you count the mint leaf garnish! Being that I am 9 months pregnant (37 weeks, 4 days to be exact) I am hot all the time! It’s July here and it’s warm in the Midwest and being pregnant doesn’t help. This drink is absolutely amazing and I can drink it frozen or as is if I simply can’t wait long enough for it to freeze!
I by no means invented this idea or recipe! However I am totally guilty of thinking that it was more work than it was worth to make these cute little red, white & blue layered jello treats. It’s really one of the simplest treats I could make and it has such a fabulous visual impact on…
