Sprite Remix
Sprite Remix was a line of colorless caffeine-free sodas and drink-flavoring packets made by The Coca-Cola Company. Although based on Sprite, the Remixes were each flavored differently from the original. It was discontinued in 2005 in the United States. In spring of 2015, the Tropical Sprite Remix flavor was reintroduced under the name Sprite Tropical, and renamed Sprite Tropical Mix a year later.[1]

'Remix Flavor Hits' packets

Sprite Tropical Mix
Sprite Tropical Remix was re-released in the spring of 2015 without the 'Remix' label. Sources on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram have shown it popping up in the East portion of the US (Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Virginia, New York, etc.). Individuals have also sold it on eBay.
After a limited roll out in spring 2015 and no public mention from Sprite/Coca-Cola, the official Sprite website was updated showing the limited time re-release for Sprite Tropical Mix on February 29, 2016. The new bottle label shows that the tropical flavors are lemon/lime, strawberry, and pineapple.
In 2018, Sprite introduced a similarly-named drink exclusive to McDonald's restaurants called MIX by Sprite Tropic Berry.
In 2019, The Coca-Cola Company redesigned Sprite and along with it the retro branding was removed and replaced with the generic minimalist branding for the Tropical Mix, this shows that Tropical Mix will remain in stores permanently for years to come.
