Hi-C is a fruit drink brand that was created by the Minute Maid division of The Coca-Cola Company. It was introduced in 1946 and has since become a popular beverage choice for children and adults alike. The drink is known for its vibrant colors and sweet flavors, often marketed as a refreshing and fun drink option.

History[edit | edit source]

Hi-C was developed by Niles Foster, who was looking to create a new fruit drink that would be both delicious and nutritious. The original flavor, "Orange Lavaburst," was an orange-flavored drink that quickly gained popularity. Over the years, Hi-C expanded its flavor offerings to include a variety of fruit combinations, appealing to a wide audience.

Flavors[edit | edit source]

Hi-C offers a range of flavors, each designed to provide a unique taste experience. Some of the most popular flavors include:

  • Orange Lavaburst
  • Fruit Punch
  • Strawberry Kiwi
  • Flashin' Fruit Punch

These flavors are often available in both juice box and can formats, making them convenient for on-the-go consumption.

Marketing and Popularity[edit | edit source]

Hi-C has been marketed primarily towards children, with colorful packaging and fun advertising campaigns. The brand has also been featured in various media, including television shows and movies, which has helped maintain its popularity over the decades.

Nutritional Information[edit | edit source]

Hi-C drinks are typically fortified with vitamin C, making them a source of this essential nutrient. However, they also contain added sugars, which should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
