    When the sun is out, which is happening quite regularly these days, a glass of wine can work wonders.

    That and a good ice lolly often do the trick, but what if you could combine the two?

    You knew it was only a matter of time, so here’s IOL with the good news:

    PJ Pops will be the first of its kind in South Africa and the suckers will go on sale in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape from September 1…

    The lollies are made from a blend of wines from an established wine estate in Franschhoek.

    Natasha Alomia, director at manufacturers JML Consulting, says she and her business partner tried and tested the popsicles in her own kitchen to find a winning recipe’…

    The suckers will be sold in the liquor aisles of major retail shops at R25 a pop.

    Sounds like the kind of job some would quite enjoy, although others went into full panic mode about youngsters getting their paws on the pops:

    A concerned Patric Solomons from child rights group Molo Songololo says substance abuse among teens is a already a big problem.

    “These new products must be clearly marked as an alcoholic beverage. Sale of such products must be prohibited to children and teenagers,” Solomons said.

    The makers have stated that the lollies are for adults only, and will be marked and sold as such.

    Lastly, and we shouldn’t have to say this but we will, anyone caught driving and sucking on a lolly will be prosecuted.

    All that aside, it truly is a lolly to make you jolly.
