Hello..does anyone remember Blairs? Blair and company drinks? From Brooklyn? Greenpoint Brooklyn
Sundew orange drink was an orange drink in a conical waxed paper container with a metal rim and a waxed paper lid on top. It was first sold in the 1940s and stopped around the 1970s. It was manufactured in Queens NY. It was the best orange drink around. But not publicized as much as it should have been. We would go to the neighborhood pier for lunch with our mother and she would stop and get sandwiches and the Sundew drink. It was great. We even used the empty cones as home made phones by tying a string between them.
LOVED SUN DEW ORANGE DRINK. TASTED LIKE NO OTHER. WISH THEY COULD BRING IT BACK NOW. THE WAX COATED PAPER SQUARE BOX MADE IT VERY UNIQUE. WOULD BE HAPPY JUST TO FIND A PHOTO OF THE BOX WITH THE CUTE SUN LOGO AND THE ROUND CLOSABLE LID ON-LINE. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE THERE IS VISUAL PROOF OF THIS NECTAR?
My dad was the plant engineer at the Sun Dew plant in the 60s. He installed the machines that would blow-mold the plastic conical containers that replaced the original wax paper ones. I learned to drive (on a fork lift) on the plant floor on Dunkirk St. The owners were wonderful people who were very supportive of him when he was starting up his electrical contracting business.
Sun Dew was best drink around in east new york back in the late 50s. Fond memories of drinking it with my cousins.
Oh, yeah, why are there no photos online of the original cylinder like, or as Kenn describes above, conical like Sun Dew container from the 1960s? I'd be proud to own and where my very own Sun Dew Orange Drink tee-shirt displaying THAT unforgettable container.
