The company behind childhood summertime favorite Fla-Vor-Ice tubes has put a boozy twist on the nostalgic treat — and they’re now available in Texas.

Appearance-wise, SLIQ Spirited Ice tubes mirror the colorful Fla-Vor-Ices many of us enjoyed as kids, but that’s where the similarities end. These “spirited” versions weigh in at 8% ABV per pop, and they’re available in nine-packs featuring three booze-infused collections: vodka, rum and agave.

  • Vodka-infused pops come in lemonade, cranberry-grapefruit and blue raspberry flavors.
  • Agave-infused pops boast margarita flavors in classic, strawberry and mango.
  • The Rum iterations include strawberry, coconut-lime and pineapple daiquiri flavors.

The 21-and-up freezer pops are made by 21 Holdings, a new division of The Jel Sert Company — which produces freezable novelty brands such as Fla-Vor-Ice, Otter Pop and Pop-Ice.

Nine-packs of SLIQ’s vodka, rum and agave pops are available at San Antonio-area liquor stores.
