How to Make Dreamsicle Drink Mix In A Pint Jar

  1. Mix 1/2 cup granulated sugar with a few drops of orange food coloring until you reach your desired shade of orange.
  2. Place 1 cup mini orange marshmallows and 1 cup mini white marshmallows in a ziplock bag.
  3. Layer the ingredients in a pint-sized jar in this order:
  4. Orange colored sugar
  5. 1/2 cup milk
  6. 1/2 cup orange powdered drink mix
  7. Remaining 1/2 cup milk
  8. 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
  9. **Dreamsicle Warmer:** Remove the bag of marshmallows from the jar and set aside. Empty the jar's contents into a large bowl and mix together. Place the mix back into the jar or another container. To make one serving, place 3 teaspoons of the mix into a cup and add 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until dissolved, and top with marshmallows.
  10. **Dreamsicle Cooler:** Blend 1/3 cup drink mix, 8 ice cubes, and 1 cup milk until the ice is crushed.
  11. **Dreamsicle Shake:** Place 1 scoop of soft vanilla ice cream (approx 1/2 cup) and 1 cup of milk into a quart-sized jar. Add 1/3 cup of the drink mix. Seal the jar tightly and shake vigorously!
