Tropical Fantasy is an inexpensive soft drink , originally from Brooklyn, New York . Its low price of 49 per 21 ounce bottle led to its success in the 1990s. ref http www.newsweek.com 1991 04 21 a storm over tropical fantasy.html A Storm Over Tropical Fantasy. Newsweek . April 22, 1991. ref 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. Tropical Fantasy is bottled by a small family owned soft drink manufacturer called Brooklyn Bottling Group , which has bottled seltzers since 1936. In 1990, with its debut of the Tropical Fantasy line, the soft drinks became an overnight success. It now bottles over 2 million each month in sales. In April 1991 rumors began circulating in neighborhoods that the beverage was laced with a secret ingredient that would sterilize men. ref http www.snopes.com racial business tropical.asp Tropical Storm.
