Well That was Terrible.

Yesterdays post was weak, Damn you Turkey hangover. So today I'm going to step back and take a few deep breaths. Of coarse in life you have to be willing to be terrible if you ever expect to be good.

Anyway I was thinking about the body paint, Mmmm body paint, and I decided that you could use simple syrup instead of corn syrup in the recipe.

  2. Boil the water.
  3. Add the sugar.
  4. Stir until all of the sugar dissolves.
  5. When it looks like it has all dissolved stir some more because if it hasn't all dissolved it will crystalize.
  6. Take it off the heat. A table spoon of vodka per 3 cups of syrup will slow the crystallization process.
  7. Use raw sugar if you want a more intense sweetness.
  8. Daiquiris all around!
