The HUG Fruit Slushee is a new addition to the products sold through the Little Hug Fruit Barrels brand from the American Beverage Corporation, offering a fun and refreshing fruit drink for kids to enjoy this summer.
The chilled slush drinks come in Blue Raspberry and Strawberry, which are naturally flavored and made with 5% real fruit juice.
