Oh yeah, I remember them. When you were a kid they were basically the cheapest drink you could get. You'll be doing well to find a picture

Remember them well. Amazing the novelty value that could be had from a funny shaped carton. We were easily pleased!:D

At the same time as the wig wams there were also other horrible coloured drinks that were contained in weird shaped plastic containers. I remember one in particular being in the shape of a horses head!!!! Anyone else remember them.

Oh and the other horrible drinks were tip top.....yuk!!!

Our local shop used to sell them frozen and you were bitterly disappointed if you got liquid ones.

Not too unlike this one you can get in Euro resorts nowadays. Wigwam was made of waxy cardboard and the packaging was far less colourfull. I remember the school "Grianan" (Plastic Roofed shelter") smelled of Wigwams almost all year round.

Yeah I remember them, there were ones in the shape of a gun too. Think there was blue and orange liquid in them, and they tasted like cheap sugary plastic.

I used to love the Amigo drinks, they were nice until they changed the flavour and the packaging.

I remember these and Tip Tops. Anyone remember those Smak cans from the 80s? I loved the pineapple ones.
