Combine all ingredients in a large heavy saucepan; cook over low heat, stirring gently, until sugar dissolves. Cover and cook over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes to wash down sugar crystals from the sides of the pan. Uncover and cook until soft boil stage (235º), stirring constantly.

Remove from heat, and beat the mixture with a wooden spoon just until it begins to thicken. Working rapidly, drop the candy mixture by tablespoonfuls onto greased wax paper. Let stand until the candy is firm.
