What if we carbonated Hawaiian Punch? Would the kids drink that?Or would they just add vodka to it?
Things to enjoy about the above photo:
Pull tab. Really cool kids dropped the tab right into the soda. It is the equivalent of smoking non-filtered. In today's Germ-Conscious Millennium, we wipe the spout before drinking. You can also make things out of pull tabs. Well, not you, but this guy.
Hard can - it is difficult to see in this angle, but this is not an aluminum can. Note the bottom seam. Cans of this era had a fat side seam too, where the steel was soldered together by hard-workin' AMERICANS. (maybe. I dunno.) That's rust around the edge there. DELISH.
That Tiki Idol Font - I can not confirm a release date for Tahitian Treat, but that font and all things Polynesian suggest a full generation before mine.
What you can't see - it was bright pink, like the Barbie aisle.
More from the soda graveyard
Hope you're enjoying National Blogpost Month.
Here's another NaBloPoMo participant for you to enjoy.

Two things: 1. Around these parts the current tabs are collected and given to the Lions' club as a fundraiser to provide glasses for those who can't afford them - or so they say. 2. Was in the grocery store yesterday and could not find even one six-pack of Club Soda!! Can you imagine that?! M
