These childhood treats are all grown up – Meet Boozicles, the alcoholic ice block

Oct 22, 2024, updated Oct 30, 2024

Do you fondly remember the childhood nostalgia of the Zooper Dooper? That satisfying hit of sugar and cold made the perfect refreshment after running around on a hot summer’s day. What if you could recreate the experience but with the adult addition of alcohol? Boozicles dares to make this dream a reality. The Brisbane-based purveyors of alcoholic ice blocks have launched this month in preparation for a long hot summer, promising its frosty treats are the best way to “cool down while you turn up”. Read on for more of the ice-cold details …

Repped by mascot Boozer Cool, an “ancient Snow Koala” with a stunning amount of lore in his backstory, Boozicles contain one standard drink per frozen stick. Currently available in four flavours – Grouse Grape, Ripping Raspberry, Cracking Cola and Lewse Lime – the brand has big dreams of seasonal flavour releases and collaborations to come.

If you’re keen as a bean to try this innovation in imbibing you can fit your mittens on a Boozicle at Summa House in Fortitude Valley, where the brand held its launch bash last week. Further intel will come soon as the brand intends to spread its chilly fingers across Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
