Easy to make Kool-Aid Sherbert Recipe for a fun summer treat. 

• Author: Melissa
• Prep Time: 5 minutes
• Cook Time: 4 hours freezing
• Total Time: 3 minute
• Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 1 cup of granulated sugar
• 1 Kool-Aid flavor packet – your favorite flavor
• 3 cups of milk (I used 2%)

Instructions

• In a medium sized mixing bowl, pour sugar and Kool-Aid packet into milk
• Stir until dissolved
• Cover and place in the freezer for about 1 hour – until it is partially firm
• Using an electric mixer mix the sherbert mixture until smooth
• Freeze until firm (about 2-4 hours or overnight)

Notes

• I used a my Kitchen-Aid mixing bowl to both mix and freeze the ingredients in. This way there is no transferring of ingredients and less mess to clean up. 
• The reason for partially freezing and then mixing it until smooth is to give the Sherbert a creamier consistency. You can skip that part if you want. It will have more of an icy texture.
