Sour Patch Kids Freeze – Review

Buy From Amazon!

First, there was fire, then there was freeze? Sour Patch Kids revealed their two newest flavors together.

They even did the promotion of them all together. I couldn’t go on Instagram without seeing both of them side by side.

Which made the fact that I couldn’t track down the Freeze ones anywhere just that much more frustrating.

Luckily, my local liquor store randomly came through. I got their final pack.

Enough complaining. How Were They?

I tried and reviewed the Fire version, and enjoyed them.

I’m not usually a fan of spicy candy, but because it was so subtle it ended up agreeing with my taste buds.

But in reality, I was just excited to try the Freeze versions.

I had heard they were all LEMONADE flavors, which just happens to be my favorite kind of flavors (see Lemonade Mike and Ikes)

And when I first opened the pack, I was even more excited.

These Sour Patch Kids look fantastic.

The color of them is almost neon. It’s bright, it’s vibrant, and it looks delicious

*CUE THE LETDOWN*

At first bite, it’s all very good tasting. Sour and sweet. The classic Sour Patch flavors really come through.

Then, the freeze hits…

Sour Patch Kids Freeze flavors…

It’s a little jarring at first. The menthol taste is not something you’re used to in a candy.

As I continued to power through them, I did find them mildly addicting. I guess that’s why some people smoke this way too.

And when I tried the pink flavor, I could see myself buying these again.

The flavors are as follows:

• Pink – Strawberry Lemonade
• Blue – Blue Raspberry Lemonade
• Green – Cherry Lime Lemonade
• Yellow – Lemonade

The Strawberry Lemonade flavor is the clear standout, but regular Lemonade is also great.

Cherry Lemonade leaves a lot to be desired, and blue raspberry lemonade is a straight up letdown.

Maybe that’s why you don’t see blue raspberry lemonade around all that often?

The conclusion?

Overall, these did grow on me. That being said, I find it hard to believe Sour Patch will find a big market for these.

My guess is that it will become a novelty candy that doesn’t connect with a large enough fanbase to stick around.

Regardless, for me, it’s an OM. It’s crazy and fun, but not something I would eat instead of normal Sour Patch Kids.

Or even the tropical flavors for that matter…
