Summer treats are getting wildly innovative and I'm having a lot of trouble keeping up.
We're living in the era of dessert-oriented opportunity. Think you've seen every sweet treat that could possibly exist? Think again simpleton!

They're cheap; they're icy; they're readily available. I've never met a Popsicle I didn't like.
Ever walk into a grocery store and buy a box of ice pops that is supposed to last you a week or two?
Ever eat the entire thing on the way home?
Yeah, me too.
The Brtish company Pops has teams up with Gordon Gin to create the ultimate sweet summer treat: Gin & Lime Ice Pops.
Yeah, you heard right—an entire company dedicated to alcoholic Popsicles.
Each Popsicle is a only 47 calories and is made with real gin and lime juice.
Gin & Tonics are cancelled.
Okay, so maybe it's not as effective as a gin and tonic, but 100% more refreshing on a hot summer day.
Another bit of bad news: as of right now, they're only available in the UK.
Costoco sells bulk packs of a very similar product called Slim Chillers. These babies are 8% alcohol, which is more than your average beer.
You think I'd dangle opportunity in front of you and take it away just like that? Such little faith.
