Smith Brothers Cough Drops
 
Tried today Chek Black Cherry soda, a house brand at Winn-Dixie. Had an instant flashback to those cough drops. Unfortunately Smith Brothers went out of business, but the flashback was exhilarating.

Didn't they have some licorice-flavored ones too?

Didn't see any. But, will try Red Cream next. Hopefully it will taste like the A-Treat brand from my golden years.

I like the Ludens sugar free wild cherry cough drops. But, I hate menthol cough drops, or menthol anything.
