Tips
The original recipe came from Kathy Beymer. My kids just love varying the flavors of the Kool-Aid and Jell-o and making up funny names of each new flavor! We make Patriotic Popsicles for Memorial Day, 4th of July, and Labor Day!
The rest of the summer we change the colors and flavors every time we make these popsicles. There are so many flavors of Kool-Aid and Jell-o that you can try a different flavor combination every time you make them up! We did find on cherry/cherry or grape/grape flavors we needed to add a bit more sugar. Be creative make up your own flavor combos!
