WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS RECIPE
This recipe uses only three ingredients you can find at any grocery store. Plus, they're kid-friendly so they're perfect for parties and cookouts.
INGREDIENTS
All you need for this recipe is: Pineapple spears in light syrup, Granulated sugar, and Fruit Punch Kool-aid mix
Carefully strain the pineapple jar into a large pitcher. Do not discard the juice! Leave the pineapple spears sitting in the jar.
STEP 1: DRAIN THE PINEAPPLE JUICE INTO A PITCHER
STEP 2: MIX THE KOOL-AID SYRUP
Add 1 cup of granulated sugar and one packet of Fruit Punch Kool-Aid to the pineapple juice. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved and the liquid turns a deep red.
STEP 3: RETURN THE LIQUID TO THE JAR
Slowly pour the Kool-Aid syrup back into the pineapple jar over the spears. Make sure every spear is fully submerged and covered with the liquid.
STEP 4: REFRIGERATE
Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate. 30 minutes is the minimum, you'll get a light coating of flavor. The longer they soak, the more the Kool-Aid flavor soaks into the fruit.
STEP 5: SERVE WITH KOOL-AID DIPPING POWDER
Remove the spears from the jar. Pour the second Kool-Aid packet into a small dish for dipping. Serve immediately while cold.
VARIATIONS
Kool-Aid comes in dozes of flavor. Some combinations worth trying include Lemonade, Watermelon, or Tropical Punch.
STORAGE TIPS
Store in the sealed jar for 3 to 5 days. The flavor actually deepens over time, so they get better as they sit. Freezing is not recommended as it makes the pineapple mushy.
