How do you Like Your Koolaid?

Question

I make mine using the powder recommendations from the container and then I fill the cap up again once with sugar and pour into the gallon water so it comes out perfect every time. I don't like my koolaid sweet but I don't like it watery either.

My little sister uses half of what is recommended by the package and substitutes sugar for the missing koolaid to make the container last longer but all it does is make her koolaid taste flavorless and way too sweet.

I also like drinking it very cold with a bit of ice in the cup to keep it cool. The cup has to be see through so I can see it while I am enjoying it.

How do you make your Koolaid and how do you prefer it? Do you know anyone who makes nasty koolaid?

Answer 1

Pineapple flavored koolaid mixed w/ frozen strawberry flavored ice-cubes.

...sometimes I mix it up a bit w/ 7up.

Answer 2

Poison-free.

Answer 3

i make it with two packs at a time (1 gallon) and i always mix them. orange and lime is good, cherry and anything else is good. two cups of sugar. i like ice in my cup also. no glass only use plastic cup

Answer 4

I follow the directions and add sliced lemons and oranges

Answer 5

I like mine on the rocks made according to the directions on the package-of course I use the single packages so I can have a lot of different flavors(my faves are Mango, Black Cherry, Lemonade) Now I worked with a guy who used DOUBLE the amount of sugar in his recipe. I couldn't touch it

Answer 6

I've just recently rediscovered kool-aid!

I like it sweet, but i don't measure anything.  I just eyeball the sugar.  sometimes I'll add a little water to my cup if it's too sweet, but when it's really cold who cares.  

Answer 7

Just as the package says with a little bit of extra sugar.
