Description
I hope I spelled that right. small drink bags that were clear and had drinks like pocahantas punch. came with a small straw that had a sharp edge to poke the bag with. I remember these back in the early 70's.

The store in our neighborhood would freeze them. My sisters and I would get them all during the summer.
I have been trying to remember what these were called! Everyone looks at me like I am crazy when I ask about them. The commercial had a guy riding the drink bag like it was a magic carpet.
Yep, I was really little and the bags were very soft clear plastic...if you weren't careful youd spill them all over. It was like Red Hawaiian Punch, they were juice boxes way ahead of their time.....I think it was 73-74-75 these were sold. Our corner store sold them frozen too...these were an awesome 1970's summer treat.
Most people think I'm nuts when I talk about these too....
The advertisement was a cartoon indian chanting "get some poke ums, get some poke ums"
