Its technical name was "Hi-C Orange Lavaburst" but everyone I knew just called it "Orange Drink".

User.@GiornoPizzas tweeted, "I come back to Twitter to learn I can no longer get a refreshing Hi-C at McDonald's, I've never felt so personally attacked." Twitter user @TheMisterMarcus was obviously just as upset, tweeting, "McDonald's is getting rid of Orange Hi-C. My whole childhood is dead…"

Let's hope that's all tongue in cheek.

Orange Fanta > Orange Hi-C, and that's for both European Orange Fanta as well as the sweeter NA specific Orange Fanta blend. That is all.

I have never seen this in McDonalds. Always seen Fruitopia instead.

That's too bad, I love that drink.

Anyone see the sprite tropicberry that was supposed to replace it?

Mexican Orange Fanta kills it all. Best. Drank. EVER.

When I was in Mexico, I couldn't stop drinking this orange pop that was labelled "Cristal". It tasted so good for some reason. I wonder if it's similar or the same as Orange Fanta in Mexico because it's made with real sugar? Hmm.

There is no way. Orange Hi-C>* if we're comparing fountain drinks at McDonald's. We need a poll on this.

Ya, I prefer European but Mexico is clearly better than US and Canada. The problem with Canada is that the taste is super sweetened to compete with Orange Crush. US is actually less sweet, hilarious enough, but is a more harsh sweet than Mexico thanks to corn syrup. Europe almost tastes like a natural orange juice that’s been carbonated haha.

I love Fanta.

Didn't they stop this orange beverage last year or 2 in Canada and replaced with Orange Fruitopia? But yes, use to love drinking that orange drank and some nuggets.

I thought they stopped selling this years ago since no one knew what I was talking about when i asked for it.

Yea, I don't even think Hi-C was available in Canada for decades now, if at all. It's been Frutopia since forever, prior to that it was Orange Fanta, then prior to that it would've been Orange Crush.

I'm just amazed that all you beyond ballers actually lower yourselves enough to be caught seen at a McDonalds, there must be much more ostentatious places you can be seen at.

Vote with your tastebuds. For people who dislike Starbucks and Tim Hortons, McD is having a limited time $1 for their Xtra Large size cup, which is probably far to much coffee in one sitting for anyone.

Am I the only one that always thought orange drink was un-carbonated Orange soda?

Closest thing I have found is the Monster Recovery Orange flavor... non carbonated and I think fairly close in taste.
