Hi-C Ecto Cooler drink is back, but……

If you were a fan of Hi-C’s Ecto Cooler drink from the ’80s and ’90s, prepare to get excited . . . then NOT so excited.

Hi-C’s parent company Coca-Cola is bringing it back for a limited time. But you won’t actually be able to buy it.

They’re doing a limited run of it to promote the new movie “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” that comes out this Friday. And the only way to get your hands on some is to WIN it.

They basically want you to beg them for it on Twitter and prove you’re a super-fan. Then maybe they’ll send you some. If you want to try, their Twitter handle is @DrinkHiC.

The last time they sold it in stores was in 2016 for the all-female reboot of the franchise. But even then, it was hard to find.

The last time it was widely available was in 2001, so two decades ago.
