I really do. I always have and even in my mid twenties, there is still a pitcher in my refrigerator.
It has many uses these days. Coloring your hair, coloring yarn, scenting and flavoring homemade lip balm and other crafty things. Also you can drink it.
I miss the commercials and the pitcher mascot. Do you remember him? Let me jog your memory:

- Cherry - Far and above the greatest flavor ever. Bright red and delicious its hard to not drink the entire pitcher. This flavor is always in my house. I am religious about it.
- Black Cherry - A great flavor as well, more refined. The grown up twist on the regular cherry.
- Tropical Punch - I honestly don't know what flavors make this up, and I won't look it up because I don't want to discover banana ingredients. It was a salmony shade of red and deliciously refreshing. This flavor was always at my grandma's house in my memories.
- Grape - I love grape flavored things. Some people really hate them, but I love them. Grape soda, grape candy, grape cough syrup, and of course grape kool-aid.
- Pink Lemonade - I thought this was how you made lemonade forever. Until I learned that you actually can make lemonade from lemons, those sour fruits that grew in our backyard. My mind was blown and things were never the same.
- Lemon Lime - I am a fan of this flavor combo. I like that it combines them both, I like that its crisp and refreshing and I really like that it doesn't stain my clothes like cherry or grape. Much lighter and easier to deal with. Yes, I am a slob, get over it.
- Orange - Almost as good as those Hi-C juice boxes but not quite there. Extra sweet to me and a definitely delicious flavor.
There was a starfruit one that was AWESOME! Mixing is something that I didn't experience until I was 11 or 12 because it regularly happened at a friends house. We were a strictly one flavor at a time household. And my dad would get so mad if people didn't refill the Kool-Aid (we often left like 3 sips in, so that we didn't have to).
