Does anyone know how to get red kool-aid out of kids clothes? I even called the company and they have no idea. This is a powder drink that you can add your own amount of sugar and water to make freeze pops or juice for the summertime.

It is an inexpensive drink for the summer; but be careful what clothes they wear or use sipper cups for the small children. I have lost many tops because of the kool-aid stains. Any ideas, please post and I'll be glad to try. Thank you for taking the time to reply to this post.

THANK YOU so much! The boiling water trick worked for me too and saved a very expensive sweater!

My daughter came home with red Kool-aid stain on a new school shirt of hers and school has not even started yet. I tried pouring the boiling hot water on the inside of the stain to push the stain out. I am completely amazed. I have never seen a Kool-aid stain come out like that. After pouring the hot water on it, I laundered as directed. You can't even tell that there was a stain there. Thanks Shari!!

I just used hand soap and cold water followed by peroxide. There was still a little color left and I used boiling water as suggested by someone here and the rest of the stain was gone. This was on a bright yellow t-shirt and it didn't hurt the shirt color at all.

Try pouring boiling water on the stain. I read this somewhere and it really works on most berry or red stains. My daughter came home today with red Kool-aid down a brand new shirt and it came right out.

I've never gotten red out. But you have 2 choices.

1. Dye the whole garment using red kool-aid to match the stains. (Don't laugh -- it makes an AWESOME dye! And as you have seen -- NEVER comes out!)

2. Buy the new kind of Kool-Aid that is clear but still has the flavor.

Have fun with it.
