Thus, the 1984 hit starring Bill Murray birthed a tie-in drink from Hi-C in 1987. The Ghostbusters movies pretty much defined the '80s. But allow me to fill the uninitiated in, if you're not in the fan base of the now-elusive ghoulish green drink:
To be honest, I myself only enjoyed these Hi-C drinks for a couple years before they went away at the very beginning of the 2000s, just before Coca-Cola stopped producing them. Thanks to the recent Ghostbusters reboot, finding where to buy Hi-C Ecto Cooler today is actually a lot easier than you think - that said, it will definitely cost you more than it did when it first hit the scene.Ĭonsidering this drink was first introduced in 1987, I'm aware that younger, non-millennials are probably scratching their heads wondering what everyone's screeching about. But it's true - every '80s and '90s kid's dream really did come true. If you've heard rumors that Hi-C Ecto Cooler is still alive and well, you were probably skeptical.
