A beverage truck was parked near my bodega delivering what appeared to be this drink called Tropical Fantasy. What really caught my eye was a HUGE image of Mr. Cee on the back pointing at me drinking his Tropical Fantasy branded beverage, The Finisher! I didn’t have a camera on me and search as I may, I couldn’t find an image remotely close to the ad so we actually called the Brooklyn Bottling Group who graciously laced us with the image. Though we found out the promotion of the drink is over and they may have even discontinued The Finisher, this needed to be documented nonetheless. Here’s a gem from Wikipedia about Tropical Fantasy

Tropical Fantasy is an inexpensive soft-drink, originally from Brooklyn, New York. Its low price of 25¢ per 20-ounce bottle led to its success in the 1990s. Tropical Fantasy was initially popular in inner city areas, especially those with dense African-American and Hispanic populations. The company did not employ large marketing campaigns and used simple store displays and low prices to sell its drinks. This made the product almost invisible to consumers not living in areas where the beverages were sold.

Damn, why can’t that shit still be 25¢!? And why can’t I find The Finisher? That could’ve very well become the official Bushwick Social Club beverage! Truly an exclusive BK gem here people. Don’t sleep.
