Why are they so good...

And where can you get those flavors? Cherry, blue raspberry, orange are only flavors I ever see.

Blue strawberry... What in the f is Mermaid flavor.

Have you ever seen any of those flavors on the site?

High Fructose Corn Syrup, if you read the ingrediencies HFCS is the worst thing you can eat.
everything is corn related , but that stuff makes you want to eat more of what you are eating or drinking.

American Coke has it , and I will not drink it. But glass bottled Coke comes from Mexico and has Sugar.
One bottle and I am done.

I've seen quite a few of those flavors at the Buc-ees near where I work.

If you've never heard of them, Buc-ees is a MASSIVE gas station/convenience store/souvenir shop that is located mostly in Texas but has opened a couple of locations in other states. When I say MASSIVE, I'm talking 100+ gas pumps outside and a retail floor larger than a lot of grocery stores. When it comes to Icees, the store I frequent has five banks of Icee machines with four flavors each. They double up on the popular ones like Coke and Cherry, but they still have a nice rotation of the more esoteric flavors.

Here's a not-too-bad Youtube video of the interior of one.

There's a brief shot of the Icee machines at the 3:00 mark.
