Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 oz (120 ml) cold milk
- 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Kool-Aid powder (any flavor)
Sweeteners:
- 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
Garnish and Optional Additions:
- Ice cubes
- Optional: Whipped cream for topping
- Optional: Matching Kool-Aid powder for rim garnish
Instructions
- Blend Kool-Aid powder and sugar into heavy whipping cream using an electric mixer, creating a vibrant and fluffy base with intense flavor.
- Continue whipping the mixture for several minutes until soft, airy peaks develop, indicating the perfect creamy consistency.
- Select a tall serving glass and layer with crisp, chilled ice cubes to provide a refreshing foundation for the beverage.
- Stream cold milk over the ice, ensuring a smooth, chilled liquid base that will complement the whipped topping.
- Carefully dollop the brightly colored Kool-Aid whipped cream onto the milk, allowing it to float gracefully on the surface.
- For an extra indulgent touch, crown the drink with a generous swirl of additional whipped cream and a delicate dusting of Kool-Aid powder, enhancing both visual appeal and flavor intensity.
Notes
- Experiment with different Kool-Aid flavors to create unique color and taste combinations for a personalized treat.
- Use cold heavy whipping cream straight from the refrigerator to help achieve faster and more stable whipped peaks.
- Reduce sugar content by using alternative sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit for a lower-calorie version that still maintains delicious flavor.
- Serve immediately after preparing to enjoy the best texture and prevent separation of the whipped topping from the milk.
