A quick and easy combination of flavors and juices to form the one and only Ecto Cooler
- 2 cups of Orange/Tangerine Juice (Ocean Spray Carries it: )
- 1 Packet of Orange Flavor-Aid or Kool-Aid
- 1 packet Tangerine Flavor-Aid or Kool-Aid
- Juice of one fresh lemon or a tablespoon of your favorite Lemonade mix
- 2 cups of sugar
- 2 cups of water
- Blue and Green Food Coloring
- Water to fill the Jug
- The first thing I did was make a simple syrup...just add 2 cups of water with 2 cups of sugar...bring to a boil...remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Once the syrup is cool add all the ingredients into a Gallon Container
- The simple syrup makes it easy to combine the sugar... you can add the sugar as is if you would like
- Stir well
- Now add water to fill up the rest of the gallon
- Add your green food coloring till you get close to a greenish color ...it won't get totally green until you add a few drops of blue...trust me on this...you have to use the blue...start with 2 drops...stir...they add drop by drop to achieve the color you are looking for. The blue works magic!
