Sanka coffee crystals on ice cream were what our grandmother gave us for a treat when we stayed the weekend. Sometimes with a splash of coca-cola.
Oh my, I had forgotten this evil once roamed the earth freely. I haven’t seen it in years, but i bet it is still out there.
Are these crystals like the menthol tingle in Denorex dandruff shampoo that doesn’t actually do anything beneficial?

I guess this would have to be some time after cup holders in cars became a thing.

I just happened to see a packet of that … stuff when I was at a hotel In NYC the other week. couldn’t resist snagging a packet to marvel at.
