Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Cold water for mixing Kool Aid
  • 4 packs Kool Aid powder choose your favorite flavor or mix flavors for color and taste
  • 1 cup granulated sugar adds sweetness, adjust to taste
  • 4 cups crushed ice may need more for consistency

Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Blender
  • Freezer-safe container

Method
 

  1. Pour the cold water into a large mixing bowl and add the Kool Aid powder and sugar. Whisk vigorously until the powder and sugar are fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth, with no lumps. Your liquid should be brightly colored and fragrant.
  2. Add the crushed ice to the Kool Aid mixture gradually while stirring gently, creating a slushy, icy texture that’s cool to the touch and slightly frosty.
  3. Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container, spreading it evenly. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming on the surface.
  4. Place the container in the freezer and let it chill for about 4 hours or until the mixture is frozen solid but scoopable. Check periodically to prevent over-freezing.
  5. Once frozen, use a fork to crack the surface and gently stir, breaking up any large ice chunks and restoring a fluffy, slushy consistency.
  6. Scoop the colorful Kool Aid slushie into glasses, making sure to include some of the vibrant hues and icy texture in each serving. Garnish with a fun straw or fruit slice if desired.

Notes

For a smoother texture, blend the mixture briefly before freezing. Feel free to experiment with different Kool Aid flavors and mix-ins like fruit or sprinkles for extra fun.
