If you're a child of the 60s, 70s, or 80s, you may remember a powdered pink mix called Strawberry Quik. Stored in a tin can with a circular lid that gave a pleasurable pop when pried open with a spoon, the gritty powder inside smelled like the ripest summer strawberries and, when mixed with milk, made the creamy liquid go down as easy as cotton candy. This Mango Dragonfruit Refresher is a far cry from Strawberry Quick (a good thing), but it takes on a similar striking hue. A little sweet, tangy, sour, and a lot refreshing, this collagen drink tumbles down the throat as easily as the powdered stuff you may remember from childhood without any of the artificial flavors or chemicals.
