Popcorn Balls

This recipe was in the collection of my great grandmother, Viola Widmann Weigel.

Popcorn Balls

Boil together

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup water

1 teaspoon vinegar

When boiled awhile add 2 tablespoons syrup, butter the size of a walnut, 4 teaspoons salt

Boil until a few drops in cold water become hard and brittle. I always put in about a nickles worth of red sugar to make the ball look pretty.
