Hi C.,
For ALL carpet stains I use spot shot (it is in a blue spray bottle with orange writing, I get it at walmart) All you do is spray it on, count to 10, wipe it up and it's gone. It doesn't leave any residue and it isn't soapy.
I have cleaned up kool-aid, grape juice, chocolate sauce, blood, grease, markers, throw up, relly, you name it, I've cleaned it! Oh, I use it in the car too.
I usually go around once a week and spray all the spots, so it even works on old stains.

If your carpet is colorsafe, you can try Clorox 2. The other product I have had fantastic luck taking food stains out of carpet and furniture is the Tide 2 Go pens.
Good luck.

Try to steam iron it out, I've heard that that works.

You Will Need:
Iron
Clean white cloths
Water
Dawn soap
How to Remove the Kool-Aid Stain:
Wet the white cloth with water and lay it on top of the stain. (you can also wet the cloth with a mixture of 5-6 drops of dawn with 2 cups water)
Place a warm iron (on lowest setting) on top of cloth. Be sure the iron is not hot or it will set the stain.
Leave the iron set there for 15 minutes. Do not press down on iron.
Repeat with a clean cloth until the stain is gone.
Rinse with water (if you used the soap solution on your cloth)
Blot with a clean cloth.
Let the area dry thoroughly.
