"Who spiked the Kool-Aid?"
This one's not for children!
Use Kool-Aid as a mixer for alcoholic drinks, or as a base for a punch - simply add less water, replacing it instead with your liquor of choice.
What Else?
Kool-Aid has been used to make flavoured ice cream, candy, frosting, play dough, deep fried Kool-Aid donut balls - even dyeing wool (seriously)! Look up some recipes online or experiment with it yourself!
Have fun!
