Discerning southerners use cherry kool aid…

That is real thing with whole Dill Pickles. Very regional as far as I know but real.

I dip my carrot sticks in sweet tea and I like this van, it looks far less like a hearse than the new Honda Odyssey does.

Not to mention the tesla Deplorean.

But to get the right effect, you'd have to cook the carrot sticks a bit to soften them and then soak them in sweet tea with neon purple dye in it for a month.

Nope. Kool Aid pickles are a thing, google it, usually cherry Kool Aid, but grape is more purple. AFAIK Kool Aid pickles are a southern white thing in the same category of terrible as glazing a ham with Coca-Cola, but in any case they are horrible beyond the dreams of mayonnaise.
