Good Cool Drink
Legacy of Linda Clark
Everyone can drink, kids will love it.
Make a gallon of any kind of Kool Aid sweetened drink
mix in a couple cans of Ginger Ale.
Let it get real cold, or you can pour it over ice cubes.
Or freeze some of it in ice cube trays.
Kids will like it as a Pop Sickle, too.
