A little sweetening magic will keep everyone happy at a festive family occasion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Use Big Red in the following recipes to bring love, joy, and peace to your holiday. If you can&#8217;t find Big Red (local mostly to Texas), use Faygo Red, Strawberry Fanta, or Kool-Aid. And if you really want to go all out, try the following recipes!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Big Red Drizzle Icing<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Start with a cup of confectioners sugar and add 1 ounce of Big Red. Slowly adjust with more sugar and more soda until you get a nice consistency. Try as a drip frosting for a 7-Up Pound Cake &#8212; replacing the 7-Up with Big Red, naturally!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Big Red BBQ Glaze<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To begin, you&#8217;ll want a Big Red reduction &#8212; over low heat, reduce two cans of Big Red to about 2\/3 cup. Combine with a spicy vinegar base BBQ sauce (no honey or teriyaki &#8212; the Big Red is sweet enough!).\u00a0Baste your ribs or other meat for the oven,\u00a0a gas grill, or mesquite charcoal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hoodoo.news\/images\/882bcee2-9d8b-4f1f-9ae8-fa88849ce2fc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"784\" height=\"226\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Big Red Pudding Pops<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Add a big dollop of vanilla pudding to any popsicle mold, then fill to 3\/4 full with Big Red (soda will expand as you freeze it). Add sticks and freeze for four hours. Voila, a special treat for the day!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Sweet Freedom Hoodoo Oil<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>So what makes Big Red Big Red? It&#8217;s NOT Strawberry! Big Red is a red cream soda &#8212; and you can adapt its recipe for your very own sweetening oil! Combine a few drops each of lemon, orange, and vanilla essential oils, then add to a red-dyed almond oil. Elements of cleansing, love, and road opening merge in a magical way.
