Homemade Slushy!

The other day I came home and was craving a nice cool drink. After using the blender for several days to make fruit drinks, I decided to try and make something for the kids and I. A challenge!

I took kool-aid, ice cubes, and snow-cone syrup.... put them into the blender, and made a nice cool slushy! Tastes just like what you'd get at the convenience store! Yum!

Both Mysia and Malachi liked it too! ('Awesome Daddy' points!)

Now I'll have to figure out how to make a frozen coke or Dr. Pepper.................... ;)
