Last week, Mcdonald’s announced the return of Hi-C Orange Lavaburst to menus.

The fan-favorite was first introduced to McDonald’s back in 1955. However, after more than 6 decades, it was discontinued in 2017.

Since its disappearance from menus and drink fountains, McDonald’s has received constant Tweets, emails, and petitions requesting that the drink be brought back. It seems McDonald’s is finally listening and is rolling out the beverage across the nation once again.

According to a post from McDonald’s, Hi-C Orange Lavaburst will be back in all US locations by the summer of 2021. If you’re interested in locating the drink nearest you, you can use their Hi-C Orange Tracker tool. They advise checking back weekly to see if the beverage has made it to a location near you.

Is Hi-C Orange Lavaburst Vegan?

Yes, McDonald’s Hi-C Orange Lavaburst drink is vegan.

While not much is vegan at McDonald’s, the company is experimenting with more vegan options – like with the McVegan and McPlant burger. However, this drink is accidentally vegan.

Hi-C Orange Lavaburst Ingredients:

PURE FILTERED WATER, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, ORANGE, PEAR AND APPLE JUICES FROM CONCENTRATE, LESS THAN 0.5% OF: NATURAL FLAVORS, CITRIC ACID, VITAMIN C, POTASSIUM CITRATE, SUCRALOSE, ACESULFAME POTASSIUM.

It’s great to see so many people excited about the comeback of a vegan menu item! What do you think of the comeback?
