What about Tang, that was an orange drink you made from a powder.

Perhaps Tarino?

Thats it..used to come in a orange can with a weird texture and the ad had some country singer. I am sure it was replaced with sunkist the same as mellow yellow became lift and Leed became sprite.

Thanks peeps.

You probably can, but I guess I don't need to look for it anymore, my kids used to the love the stuff. OH & Tarax is back, well at least here it is & it's cheaper than Solo etc.

I remember Leeds Lemonade, Halls, Torino (someone elses already mentioned) Mello Yellow.

You can still buy Tarax here at some servo's for about $2 for a large bottle.
Good value.

All this talk of drinks is making me thirsty. I think I'll order a Tab.

In the 70s-80s there was a drink that came in a pink and purple striped can and was called Kandy. It was basically pink creaming soda.
