5 MINUTE Summer Fun - DIY Snow Cone Syrup

Today's 5 Minute Summer fun is one of my kids favorites - DIY snow cone syrup. Be the Super Summer MOM and take 5 minutes to create fun for your kids.

This year I even set up a permanent summer snow cone station in my kitchen. I took a tray and placed our snow cone machine, variety of syrups, straws, spoons and cups on it and now we are ready to make snow cones at a moments notice.

Have you thought about something more natural like fruit syrups? They're really easy to make, have no artificial colors, and provide some nutrition instead of just sugar.

Just a suggestion, but raspberry and blueberry are especially kid friendly :) Just keep the syrups in squeeze bottles in the fridge and you're done!
