- 1 additional packet Kool Aid (same or different flavor)

Instructions
- Prepare Whipped Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 packet of Kool Aid, ⅓ cup sugar, and ½ cup heavy cream. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the mixture on high speed until it thickens and stiff peaks form, indicating that it is light and fluffy.

- Prepare Kool Aid Drink: Following the instructions on the second Kool Aid packet, mix the powder with the recommended amount of water to create the drink. Stir well to dissolve.
- Assemble Glasses: Pour the prepared Kool Aid drink into two glasses, filling each about halfway.
- Add Ice: Add ice cubes to each glass until the glass is approximately two-thirds full to chill the drink.
- Top with Whipped Mixture: Spoon the prepared whipped Kool Aid cream on top of each glass to create a creamy layer.
- Serve and Enjoy: Stir the creamy topping into the Kool Aid drink if desired, then enjoy your refreshing whipped Kool Aid beverage.
Notes
- Use any flavor of Kool Aid based on your preference to customize the taste and color.
- For best results, chill the glasses before assembling to keep the beverage cold longer.
- You can adjust the sugar amount depending on how sweet you want the whipped cream topping.
- This recipe yields two servings and is perfect for a quick and fun summer drink.
- If you prefer a lighter texture, you can use half-and-half or milk instead of heavy cream, but the whipping results may be less stiff.
