Scale
Whipped Topping
- 1 packet Kool Aid (any flavor) + 1 extra packet
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Drink Base
- 2 packets Kool Aid (used as described)
- Ice cubes, as needed
Instructions
- Whip the Cream Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 packet of Kool Aid powder, ⅓ cup sugar, and ½ cup heavy cream. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the mixture on medium-high speed until it thickens and stiff peaks form, creating a light, fluffy topping.
- Prepare Kool Aid Base: Follow the instructions on the 2nd Kool Aid packet to prepare the drink base as directed, typically by mixing with water and sugar.
- Assemble the Drink: Pour the prepared Kool Aid base into two glasses, filling each about halfway. Add ice cubes to fill the glasses approximately two-thirds full to keep the drink chilled.
- Add Whipped Topping: Gently spoon the whipped cream mixture on top of each glass, creating a creamy layer above the Kool Aid.
- Serve and Enjoy: Stir the whipped topping and Kool Aid base together if desired, and enjoy your refreshing whipped Kool Aid drink!
Notes
- Use any flavor of Kool Aid according to your preference to customize the taste.
- For best results, use heavy cream with a high fat content to achieve stiff peaks.
- Chill glasses beforehand to keep the drink colder longer.
- You can adjust the sugar content in the whipped topping if you prefer less sweetness.
- This recipe makes 2 servings; double the ingredients for more servings.
