      Title: Crystal Rock Candy
 Categories: Five, Candy
      Yield: 1 Batch
 
  1 1/2 c  Water
      6 c  Sugar
      3    (6") lengths of string
           Food coloring
           Flavouring
 
  Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from heat and
  add 3 cups of the sugar stirring till dissolved. Slowly
  add the remaining sugar, reheating the water if necessary.
  When all the sugar is dissolved, pour the mixture into 3
  heat proof jars or glasses.
  
  Stir 3 drops of liquid food coloring and 1/2 teaspoon of
  flavouring into each jar.
  
  Tie each length of string around a pencil. Lay on top of
  the jars (1 string per jar) so that the strings hang in
  the liquid. Crystals will begin to form in 1 hour, and
  continue to solidify for several days. If a layer forms
  on the surface of the jar break it. When the liquid
  evaporates completely, the candy is ready.
  
  LISA'S NOTES: I use pint size canning jars. Use the
  flavours you like, most grocery stores carry candy
  flavourings. Use the food color you desire as well.
  
  DAVE'S NOTE: You can make chile flavouring by chopping
  chilies and placing in a pint of vodka or light rum (rum
  will add a flavour if its own to the finished product)
  and leaving the mix to steep for seven to ten days. To
  use - strain out the solids and substitute the infused
  booze as part of the liquid in your recipe.
