Review: As a little boy, my husband used to freeze Hi-C into popsicles. He took one taste of this modern version and happily pronounced the flavor "exactly the same." Our preschooler loved them as well. The triangular shape of these frozen treats cuts down on the mess. Unfortunately, the frozen lemonade wasn't as impressive. The packages are difficult to open and manage. Even worse, the soft lemonade is goopy and too tart.
