What is Koolaid koolickle?
A Koolickle is a Mississippi Delta delicacy which originated following Clinton’s arrival in the White House (circa 1992). A Koolickle is created by taking a jar of dill pickles (cut in half), dumping out half of its brine, and adding in a double strong mixture of your favorite Kool-Aid flavor with water and 1/2-1 cup of sugar.
How do you eat a koolickle if you don’t live in the south?
Now that we’re all up to speed on the history of hacked sweet and sours, let’s get to the heart of the matter: how do you eat a Koolickle if you don’t live in the Delta south? Easy, you make one. It requires absolutely no pickling skills, just a gallon of dill pickles, a pound of sugar and two packets of Kool-Aid (the flavor is up to you).
How did the Kool-Aid pickle come to exist?
That’s what happened in the Delta region of Mississippi, and it’s how the Kool-Aid pickle came to exist. Kool-Aid pickles, sometimes referred to as Koolickles, are an unnaturally colored pickle — usually red, as that’s the most popular Kool-Aid “flavor” — that have been slowly creeping their way out of the Delta from whence they were born.
Can you put Kool Aid in pickles?
They can be spears or chips, or any other type of pickle that’s already sliced. Drain the brine into a separate jar, and add the Kool-Aid powder of your choice to the pickles in the jar. (If the Kool-Aid powdered is unsweetened, add sugar, too.)
