tommytouch Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I went down to my local Tesco Express here in Chiang Mai earlier and noticed the intriguingly named Kickapoo Joy Juice. Obviously I couldn't resist a purchase so bought myself a can (B15). For the uninitiated I can tell you it has a kind of Mountain Dew taste - not too bad. It's imported, with the paper strip across the top, from America I believe. Seems rather odd to find it sitting there with all the big name and domestic drink brands. I've never heard of it; is it big in the States? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I have never liked Mountain Dew, so pretty sure I would not like this either. Too bad it is not Moonshine like the original - even thought the writer of the comic strip denied it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytouch Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kickapoo_Joy_Juice Wow, that description makes it sound more like LSD! So it looks like it's being imported from another SE Asian country. The writing on the can is in both Thai and English so they must be pretty serious about introducing it to the Thai market.

xen Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 The name comes from the little Abner comic strip in the fifties doesn't it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonobo Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I used to drink it as a kid, but I have not seen it in the States for quite some time. I just saw a can in Kampot, Cambodia, and it was the "USA Recipe" made in Malaysia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
