Prag's Way Point

These measurements are only 'rule-of-thumb'

Hardware:
- 1 2-gallon plastic container.
- 1 Wire whisk.
- 1 Plastic 'drinking sized' cup.
- 1 Spoon.
- 1 Set of measuring spoons. (English)
- 1 Set of measuring cups. (English)

Delicious Ingredients:
- Copious amounts of fresh (non-yellowed) fluffy snow. (Approximately 2 gallons)
- 2 Cups of sugar.
- 1/2 Cup of Half-and-Half
(Note: Exchanging the Sugar and Half-and-Half with Sweetened Evaporated Milk is
suggested. However, as I'm snowed in... Well, I had to improvise.)
- 4 Tbl-spoons of real Mexican Vanilla.
- 8 Tbl-spoons of Malted Milk Mix.
(Note: Can also use Chocolate Milk Mix. If you prefer chocolate.)
- 2 Large Shots of Irish Cream Liquor. (Your choice here.)

Instructions:
Mix the 'syrup' ingredients above in the drinking cup. Stir together and taste a little
bit to see if the blend is correct. (Remember, the syrup will be much stronger than it's
taste in the final product after it's mixed into the snow.)
Find a large pile of snow in an open area. Scoop a heaping amount into the 2 gallon
container from the top few inches of the pile Mother Nature has provided. Slowly add
the pre-mixed syrup while mixing the snow with the wire whisk. Place the lid on the 2
gallon plastic container and shake it like a 'tossed salad' until the mix looks somewhat
like ice cream. It'll be much more fluffy and crystalline than regular ice cream. Shake
and stir the mixture until it has a uniform color slightly lighter than the syrup mixture
had.

Taste with spoon. Adjust any tastes to your preference and re-mix.

Dig out a big old bowl and enjoy!
