Ingredients

  • 12 Hard boiled eggs
  • ½ cup Boiling water per cup
  • 1 tsp vinegar per cup

Instructions

  1. For each color or packet of Kool-Aid, add ½ cup boiling water, 1 teaspoon vinegar, and pour contents of one full packet of Kool-Aid mix to a cup and stir until the Kool-Aid is dissolved.

  2. Gently place hard boiled eggs to the kool-aid dye baths (one egg to a cup is ideal) and let sit for 3-4 minutes in the dye mixture or until the desired color is reached.

  3. Use tongs or use spoon to remove the egg and gently lay it on a paper towel without touching it as much as possible.

  4. Allow wet eggs to sit undisturbed for about 5 minutes or until no longer wet before placing it back in the egg carton. 

  5. Discard the cups of kool-aid mixtures down the sink drain.
