Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet Kool Aid powdered drink mix any flavor
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar adjust to taste
  • 2 cups cold water

Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Freezer-safe container
  • Mixing spoon
  • Fork or spoon for scraping

Method
 

  1. Measure out the Kool Aid powder and sugar, then combine them in a mixing bowl.
  2. Pour in two cups of cold water and stir vigorously until the powder and sugar are fully dissolved, and the liquid turns bright and slightly frothy.
  3. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, spreading it out evenly.
  4. Place the container in the freezer and let it freeze for about 4 hours, stirring every 30 minutes with a fork to break up ice crystals and ensure an even, slushy texture.
  5. After freezing and periodic stirring, the mixture will become thick, granular, and scoopable with a consistency similar to shaved ice or a snow cone.
  6. Scoop the Kool Aid slushie into glasses or cups and serve immediately with a straw or spoon for a vibrant, icy treat.

Notes

Feel free to mix multiple Kool Aid flavors for colorful swirls. Adjust sugar to taste depending on your sweetness preference. For a finer texture, you can blend the slushie before serving.
