Kool-Aid® Flavored Popcorn

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Kool-Aid® Flavored Popcorn.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 225°F (110°C) and give a large baking sheet a light greasing to prevent sticking.

2. Step 2

   In a spacious bowl, gather your freshly popped popcorn and set it aside, ready for some delicious magic.

3. Step 3

   Next, grab a saucepan and combine sugar, corn syrup, and butter.

4. Step 4

   Heat this mixture over medium heat, stirring gently until it reaches a delightful boil and the sugar has completely dissolved—this should take about three minutes.

5. Step 5

   While that’s bubbling away, take another bowl and mix together your favorite drink mix with baking soda.

6. Step 6

   Now, here comes the fun part: carefully pour the hot sugar mixture into the bowl with the drink mix, stirring gently as it bubbles up.

7. Step 7

   It’s like a mini science experiment! Once combined, pour this sweet, bubbling concoction over the popcorn, tossing it well to ensure every piece is coated in that sugary goodness.

8. Step 8

   Spread the coated popcorn evenly onto your prepared baking sheet, making sure it’s all in a single layer.

9. Step 9

   Pop it into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to help the coating harden evenly.
