Iconic Candy Bars That Take Us on a Trip Down Memory Lane

Kool-Aid is an iconic American drink mix that has been quenching thirst since 1927. The product was created by Edwin Perkins, a Nebraska entrepreneur who initially marketed the product as Fruit Smack. Perkins discovered that the product was much more popular when sold as a powder, and he eventually changed the name to Kool-Aid.

Over the years, the brand has evolved, introducing new flavors and products, such as the popular Kool-Aid Jammers drinks. The brand has also become synonymous with American pop culture, with the Kool-Aid Man character appearing in numerous advertisements and even a popular video game. Despite facing criticism for its high sugar content, Kool-Aid remains a beloved drink mix and a staple in American households.
