Three flavours in one box, all of them borrowed from the sweet counter and the fizzy drink aisle rather than from fruit: cherryade, blue raspberry and cola. Blue raspberry is largely an invention of American confectionery, where the colour was adopted to separate raspberry from the reds already used for cherry and strawberry. Cola is a blend too, built on citrus oils, cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg rather than on any cola nut worth speaking of. All three are water ices, which suits flavours this sharp. There's no dairy to soften them. Mixing three flavours in one box makes it a selection rather than a multipack, and it means the box gets eaten in an order rather than all at once.
