Recipe(tried): Koolickles (pickles made with Kool-Aid)

I did taste one yesterday, even though I knew they weren't quite ready. Not enough cherry flavor and very little color. They're kinda strange...lol. I'm pretty certain I didn't use enough Koolaid so I heated the liquid and added another pack of Koolaid. They're now back in the fridge for another soak.

Here's the recipe I used:

2 packages of cherry koolaid
2 cups of sugar
about 1/2 quart water
1 (46 oz) jar whole dill pickles drained of juice

The original recipe called for a deli sized jar of pickles, double strength koolaid and 1# of sugar.

I just didn't have room in the fridge for a jar that large.
