Combine water, water and corn syrup in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat stirring occasionally to 240º on a candy thermometer or until it forms a soft ball in cold water. Stir in butter and peanuts. Cook stirring constantly to 300º (or until a small amount dropped in cold water separates into threads which are hard and brittle). Watch carefully so mixture does not burn. Remove from heat; stir in soda mix thoroughly. Pour onto 2 warm baking sheets and quickly spread evenly to about 1/4".
