kool-aid ice cream - untested

KOOL-AID ICE CREAM !

1 - packet 0.14 oz unsweetened kool-aid, any flavor
1 - cup granulated sugar (to sweet for me)
2 - cups whole or 2% milk
1 - cup half & half

Mix one packet unsweetened Kool-Aid mix together with granulated sugar. Add the milk, half & half and mix until dissolved. Pour mixture into a shallow freezer container.

Freeze for 1 - 2 hours until slightly thickened. Transfer mixture to a bowl and beat until smooth (I used a wire whisk).

Return to freezer container, cover and freeze 8 hours or over night. Remove 20 minutes before serving to soften slightly.

Recipe yields - 3 cups.

I have no clue what Kool-aid is?!
but that is a pretty, pretty blue.

I've made what I call sorbet - basically boil Rhubarb with sugar, push resulting goo through a sieve and freeze it, 'forking' it every hour.
Like a slush-puppy a pretty pale pink colour and tasty.
Also made it with blackcurrants, a deep purplry red, stronger taste, equally nice :D

Oh I did make vanilla ice-cream the other day! go me :D
it was nice.

Kool-Aid is a powdered drink mix that needs sugar added to it after it's added to water. Only nutrient it might add would be citric acid.

Kool-Aid has been used to color hair temporarily, like for a few hours. *shrugs* It washes out on the first wash I'm told if I remember correctly.

It's very colourful, not sure I'd want to sample it!

yeeeees then I had that toothache so couldn't eat much of it!

Easy to make, just need to remember to 'fork it' not having one of those fancy ice-cream machines :)

That is a vivid color. Looks like a pretty good kids food. If it could be made of real fruit, I might try it.

That color is tropical punch. ooooooorrrrr maybe not. In the how-to dye hair

tropical punch gives a bright red. hmmm, that's not blue.

Yeah, I thought Tropical Punch was red. It was my favorite flavor as a kid.

My aunt made koolaid popcorn once for Halloween back when I was a kid. It looks better than it tastes.

If you use brown sugar and no koolaid in that recipe you get caramel corn. I made it on Friday and just kept eating it. I'm going to put peanuts in the next batch to make homemade Cracker Jacks.
