Am I remembering an ice cream that didn’t exist ??

[ImaginationZoo]

I was sure in the early 90s I used to absolutely love an ice cream I think was called ‘Mirage’ ? Maybe I’ve got the name wrong as googling isn’t coming up with anything ??!!

it was a bit like a solero but lemon shaped 🤷‍♀️ Maybe I dreamt it .

Also - a lemon drink called ‘Gini ‘??? Or have I made that up too 🤣🤣🤣

Lyons maid did lemon ice-cream. Abroad you could buy gimmicky ice-cream I remember collecting plastic containers fruit shaped which had contained ice-cream

No I googled they look like individual desserts and what I’m remembering was definitely on a stick and very like a solero but lemon shaped

This?

Iceland I think..

Both sadly discontinued- I tried to get some taboo earlier this year to celebrate a milestone birthday. Vodka, Taboo and Lemonade was a student favourite

Gini is available in France. I’m looking forward to stocking up when I’m there in the summer 🍋

No not solero but very similar - Was definitely a lemon shape ….. I’m starting to worry I spent a whole summer in the early 90s hallucinating Ice creams 😱🤣🤣 is that why I have the name ‘mirage’ in my head !!!!????

I think I remember a person shipped lolly. Was the outside like solero? And it was green?

Shaped

You've the name all wrong, the one with strawberry pieces in?

Does anyone remember thjs drink that was around briefly in the mid 90s…it was carbonated but the flavour was herbal. I think it was marketed as a health drink. Might only have been around for 1 summer!

Was this the ad, OP? at around the 830 mark. If you look for gini ads, most of them are a lot more risqué than this one!

There was definitely an ice lolly called a Mivi (or a Cornish Mivi) like a solero but with a fruit outer and ice cream inner. They tended to be strawberry but there were lemon and orange ones.

I really the wibbly wobbly lollies
Also the feet lollies
I also remember a green frog lolly too, they were yum!

I remember those!

What was the ice lolly in the 80s/90s which was a marble effect looking one?

It's not a mivi is it?

Any of these ??

Ye, Mivvis came in different flavours IIRC. I always thought they were terribly grown up because that's what my parents would have (Strawberry, I think).

My favourite was the Lolly Gobble Choc Bomb..
Or sometimes a Screwball.

Chuffed to read that you can still get Funny Feet... I think I need to go to Iceland. They remind me of 1970s summer holidays in Cornwall !

Anyone remember Gino Ginelli ice cream? Can still hear the music now from the ad😄

Or this 🤣🤣

Wow I remember the green frog lollies, they were so nice!

I remember Gini - and I also seem to remember that it had a weird top to the can - so instead of a ring pull there was one large and one small button you pressed in and drank through the resulting hole. Anyone remember that?

A paddle pop?

The Mivvi was the Lyon’s Maid version of a strawberry split wasn’t it?
Walls also did a blackcurrant split in around the late 70s, I loved them
I was also very keen on Tango sparkling grapefruit, it was very tart and refreshing. Sadly long gone😠
