I accidentally dumped Koolaid on my phone

Hi! Okay so earlier today I was chilling, watching netflix, stuff like that and decided to get some kool aid, so I did. I got back to my bedroom and accidentally spilled some of it onto my phone. It's on, but I can't seem to unlock it (I'm assuming the screen was damaged?) and it keeps randomly bringing up the option to turn off my phone. Please help (this happened about an hour and a half ago as of right now).

Answer this question I have this problem too

I would turn it off because odds are there's still moisture in the device. Sounds like you spilled near the power button where the flex cable for your screen is, so you may have damaged one or both screen and power button. I'd dry it out completely (Damp-rid works better than rice) if you have the ability to open it do so and disconnect the battery then let it dry 100% before trying again. If it's an iPhone 4 replacing it with a 4S or 5 would be almost the same cost as fixing it.
