3/4 sugar
water, according to Kool-Aid directions
1 (10 ounce) can frozen Pina Colada mix (thawed)
1 (2 liter) bottle 7-Up soda (to taste) or (2 liter) bottle Sprite (to taste)
1 pint vanilla ice cream

In a punchbowl, combine the prepared Kool-aid, thawed Pina Colada mix, and 7-Up or Sprite.
Add scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Serve and enjoy!
Note #1: the Kool-aid company changes it's flavors and colors all the time, so you'll need to investigate what is available when you're making your punch; past flavors/color combinations that worked were Berry Blue and Raspberry Reaction.
Note #2: if you make up some ahead of time, you can also freeze a ring of prepared Kool-aid and put it in the punch bowl, or make ice cubes with it and add them into the punch.
Note #3: folks have asked me what the Pina Colada mix is for, so I thought I should add it to the recipe. :) It's to make the punch a pastel color, rather than bright blue. It's up to you whether or not you use it, but I think it's tasty!
