Ingredients Needed For Whipped Kool-Aid

Here's what you'll need to whip up this delicious drink:

  • KOOL-AID – Blue Raspberry Lemonade or Mixed Berry Blue – your preference
  • Sugar
  • Heavy Whipping Cream

Directions For This Whipped Drink

Follow these simple steps to create your Whipped Kool-Aid masterpiece:

Prepare the Kool-Aid:

Pouring packets of blue Kool-Aid powder into a mixing bowl containing a white liquid, with a whisk attachment in view, creates the perfect base for a delightful Whipped Kool-Aid drink.

Start by preparing one package of the KOOL-AID according to the package directions.

Use a large pitcher and then place it in the refrigerator to chill.

This will be the base of our drink, providing that classic Kool-Aid flavor we all love.

Make sure it’s well-chilled for the best results.

Make the Whipped Cream:

Milk being poured from a turquoise bowl into a metal mixing bowl with a whisk attachment, ready to craft the perfect whipped drink.

Add the heavy whipping cream, the second package of KOOL-AID, and the sugar in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer.

Mix medium to high speed until the cream whips up and stiff peaks form.

This process usually takes about 3-5 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the cream holds its shape firmly.

The Kool-Aid adds a burst of color and flavor to the whipped cream, making it both beautiful and delicious.

Assemble the Drinks:

A whipped Kool-Aid beverage is being poured into a tall glass filled with ice cubes against a white tiled background.

Fill four glasses halfway with the chilled KOOL-AID drink from the pitcher.

This is where you can get creative!

Use clear glasses to showcase the beautiful layers.

Add ice to each glass until they are about two-thirds full.

This step cools the drink and prepares it for whipped cream topping.

The ice also helps to keep the drink refreshing and cold, perfect for a hot summer day.

Top with Kool-Aid Whipped Cream:

Now for the fun part! Top each glass with a generous dollop of your KOOL-AID whipped cream.

Use a spoon or a piping bag for a more precise and decorative look.

The contrast between the creamy top and the colorful drink base is a visual treat.

You can even sprinkle a little extra Kool-Aid powder on top for an added touch of color and flavor.

Serve and Enjoy:

Pop in a colorful straw, serve immediately, and enjoy the smiles all around!

The combination of the cool drink and the fluffy whipped cream is irresistible.

Tips and Tricks

  • Customize Your Flavors: Feel free to get creative with the flavors. Try different combinations like Tropical Punch or Cherry for a unique twist. You can even mix two flavors together for a more complex taste.
  • Add a Garnish: For an extra special touch, garnish with fresh berries, a slice of lemon, or even a small candy. These little additions can make your drink look even more appealing and add a bit of extra flavor.
  • Make it Boozy: For the adults, add a splash of vodka or rum to the chilled KOOL-AID drink before topping it with whipped cream. This turns it into a fun and festive cocktail for summer parties.

FAQs For Whipped Kool-aid

Q: Can I use any flavor of Kool-Aid for this recipe? A: Absolutely! Feel free to use any flavor you love. Blue Raspberry Lemonade and Mixed Berry Blue are great choices, but you can get creative with different flavors like Tropical Punch, Cherry, or even a mix of two flavors for a unique twist.

Q: How long does the whipped cream last? A: The Kool-Aid whipped cream is best enjoyed immediately after making it. If you need to prepare it ahead of time, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. If it starts to deflate, give it a quick whip before serving.

Q: Can I make this drink ahead of time? A: You can prepare and chill the Kool-Aid drink in the refrigerator beforehand. However, I recommend making the whipped cream just before serving to ensure it’s fresh and fluffy.

Q: Is there a dairy-free version of this recipe? A: You can use coconut cream or another non-dairy whipping cream alternative. Just follow the same steps to whip it up with the Kool-Aid and sugar.

Q: Can I make this a low-sugar or sugar-free treat? A: You can use a sugar substitute like stevia or erythritol to reduce the sugar content. Additionally, there are sugar-free Kool-Aid options available that you can use in this recipe.
