Directions

  1. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Mix 3 cups flour, 1 cup sugar, the baking powder, salt, and 1/2 packet of the soft drink mix together in a large bowl.

  2. Whisk the milk, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract together in a separate large bowl until blended, slowly stir in the flour mixture until entirely incorporated in a batter the consistency of a thick pancake batter.

  3. Drop the batter by large spoonfuls, about 2 teaspoons in size, into the preheated oil, fry until deep golden brown on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to drain on a platter lined with paper towels.

  4. Mix together 1 cup sugar with the remaining 1/2 packet of soft drink mix in a flat-bottomed dish. Roll the drained donuts in the sugar mixture while still hot. Set aside on a fresh set of paper towels to cool slightly, serve warm.

Recipe Yield

50 donuts

Recipe Note

I tried 'Chicken Charlie's Deep Fried Kool-Aid®' at the San Diego County Fair. They were very good so I started to search on a way to recreate them. I searched for drop doughnut recipes and took one of those and adapted it. This is a very close version of the one I had at the fair in looks and taste. The fair's version was cherry-flavored, but you could use any flavor you like.
