Open the jar of dill pickles and carefully pour the brine into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Set the pickles aside.
Add the Kool-Aid drink mix and granulated sugar to the bowl of brine. Stir thoroughly until the sugar and drink mix are completely dissolved to create a colorful and sweet brine.
Transfer the pickles back into the pickle jar or a large resealable glass container, ensuring they fit snugly.
Pour the Kool-Aid brine mixture over the pickles, making sure all the pickles are submerged. If needed, gently shake or tap the container to remove air bubbles.
Seal the jar or container tightly and refrigerate for at least 5-7 days, allowing the pickles to absorb the flavors and change color. Shake the jar gently every day to ensure even flavor distribution.
Once marinated, the Koolickles are ready to enjoy! Serve them cold as a colorful snack or unique party treat.
