In a medium saucepan, combine the Kool-Aid powder, granulated sugar, and water.
Whisk the ingredients together over medium heat until the sugar completely dissolves.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring regularly to prevent sticking or burning.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture cook for about 2–3 minutes, or until it slightly thickens.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
Transfer the syrup to a clean, airtight jar or container for storage.
Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks, and use as desired in drinks, desserts, or shaved ice.
