To make a snow cone, shave ice into a cup or cone. Generously pour the syrup over the shaved ice, allowing it to soak in and color the ice. You can use multiple flavors for a layered effect or a single flavor for a consistent taste. For other uses, simply drizzle over your chosen frozen treat or mix into a base liquid for slushies. Adjust the amount based on desired sweetness and flavor intensity.
