Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup crushed ice preferably finely crushed for better blending
  • 1/4 cup Kool Aid powder choose your favorite flavor
  • 2 tbsp sugar optional, adjust for sweetness
  • 1/2 cup cold water to dissolve the Kool Aid and sugar

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Ice crusher or plastic bag and mallet

Method
 

  1. Measure out the Kool Aid powder, sugar, water, and crushed ice. Prepare your blender and have everything ready to go.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the Kool Aid powder, sugar, and water until the powder and sugar are fully dissolved. This creates a concentrated syrup.
  3. Add the crushed ice to the blender. Pour the prepared Kool Aid syrup over the ice.
  4. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until the mixture is slushy, smooth, and icy. This usually takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  5. Stop the blender and check the texture; it should be thick, icy, and bright in color. If needed, blend a few more seconds for a finer slush.
  6. Pour the chilled Kool Aid slushie into glasses. Optional: garnish with a slice of fruit or a colorful straw for presentation.

Notes

For a smoother texture, you can pre-freeze some of the syrup or use pre-crushed ice. Feel free to experiment with different flavors by mixing multiple Kool Aid packs.
