The Fanta Haunted Apple Icee is pretty straightforward: it’s the Icee take on Fanta’s special, limited edition soda flavor inspired by Beetlejuice Beetlejuice with that flavor being described by Fanta as a “unique apple” flavor. The soda itself was launched earlier this month with special Beetlejuice Beetlejuice inspired packaging: black and white stripes and a photo of Michael Keaton’s iconic character on it as well.
