Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups crushed ice preferably finely crushed
  • 1 packet Kool Aid powder (any flavor) or 2 tablespoons of liquid Kool Aid concentrate
  • ½ cup cold water to dissolve the Kool Aid
  • 2 tablespoons sugar optional, adjust for sweetness

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Pour the Kool Aid powder into a mixing bowl or directly into the blender if intended for blending immediately.
  2. Add cold water and sugar to the Kool Aid, then stir or whisk until the powder and sugar are fully dissolved, creating a bright, colorful liquid.
  3. Measure out the crushed ice and add it to the blender, along with the flavored Kool Aid liquid.
  4. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes slushy and granular, with a snowy, ice-crystal texture that holds its shape but is easy to spoon.
  5. Stop the blender and check the texture—if it’s too thick, add a splash of water and pulse briefly; if too runny, add more crushed ice and blend again.
  6. Once the desired icy, granular consistency is achieved, spoon the Kool Aid slushie into glasses and serve immediately for a refreshing cold treat.
