For those of you making the "fizz" if you have the kool aid mix that already has the sugar in it just follow the back of the container for how much to put in for a 8oz glass and just add this to the gingerale, but be careful because it looks like a science experiment. This way it makes the perfect fizz.

I made the "fizz" and the "smoothie". The fizz went a little flat after blending, but the smoothie was great!! My husband and son love it too!! It's a great treat and snack for all! I even use flavored yogurt sometimes!! It's great with frozen fruit too!

Disappointed with the slushie recipe - I could not find the exact Kool Aid flavor at the store, so I used a different blue Kool Aid flavor. I used the same exact measurements and it was just very watery and not thick like the photo looks at all. Basically just tasted like fizzy watered down Kool Aid. I even used the full tray of kool-aid cubes too. It's a shame, because the photo looks so good!
