Here’s the post from the official Ecto Cooler Facebook page:
That means we’ll see Ecto Cooler discontinued yet again after being around for a little more than half a year. More than likely this was always meant to be a temporary re-release of the flavor, but I don’t know why Coca-Cola doesn’t just keep it around all the time now. When it first hit shelves in May, it was impossible to find. But maybe now that fans have gotten what they wanted after so long, it’s not selling as well.
At the very least, fans were able to savor the flavor for a short period before it was snatched away again. If Ecto Cooler doesn’t become a seasonal drink, maybe it will make a return when that animated Ghostbusters movie makes its way to theaters. Or perhaps we’ll get some more when the new animated Ghostbusters series is released. If not then, there’s always the prospect a resurgence years from now when Ghostbusters is inevitably rebooted yet again. Honestly, now that we know Coca-Cola is willing to re-release Ecto Cooler, I’m sure we’ll get it again some day. But until then, throw back that slime like there’s no tomorrow.
