Have you ever made Kool-Aid pickles?

Never got around to it myself, perhaps for my brother for Christmas.

Cherry seems to be the dominant flavor choice.

I don’t see why it couldn’t work for Kimchi.

Kool Aid is pretty horrible, after one is 10 years old; but would be especially nasty in a pickle...

You might be able to make nice popsicles out of it, for kids...I’ve always wanted one of these Thai popsicle gizmos, just for fun - it looks like even more fun than Ice Cream:

...Kool-Aid pickles?...

ONCE.

I love all sorts of pickles and so I tried it. It was hot and humid and to tell the truth the first one hit the spot. Even eating 1-2 a week, they cloyed quickly.

I have moved and cannot get Peppadew Piquante sweet and hot peppers. I have added some sliced roasted red peppers to the left over brine of my last jar and before I cave and spend $6 at Amazon for 1 jar (!), I wonder if anyone has a brine recipe that is sweet, tangy & has a touch of chili pepper?

I love Koolickles.

I use cocktail dills and I cut them into spears before I add the Kool aid and sugar to the pickle juice. This is a good size for snacking or putting on a sandwich.

I prefer using the lemon lime for taste and the bright green color.

You can adjust the sugar levels.

Years ago I found the hibiscus flavor and I really liked that also but it wasn’t available around here. Not sure if they still have that flavor but it seemed only near large Hispanic areas when I looked it up once.

I plan to try the pink lemonade next time I make them. The color would probably need a boost with dye but I don’t care about that as much as the taste.
