which have become an Internet sensation.<\/p>\n<p>The popsicles are made in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, one of the original production places of yellow wine, because of the clean water and top-quality grains.<\/p>\n<p style=\"\">There are several different flavors such as: yellow wine with glutinous rice, yellow wine with black prunes and even chocolate.<\/p>\n<h5><span

Yet one popsicle producer has already started being inventive with the chilli-flavor ice cream lolly. A Beijing resident, surnamed Jiang, was brave enough to try the 4 yuan brown and white ice cream lolly, and said it tasted like chocolate at first but become spicy after swallowing one bite.<\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photo_Shanghaidaily-5\"><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"55.jpg\" style=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/media.hiredchina.com\/FqJ2S2NRLce92M1WCDA8kjlfUOLX?imageView2\/0\/format\/webp\/q\/75\" width=\"589\" height=\"353.1393805309734\" title=\"\">Photo:Shanghaidaily<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<hr>\n<p>Maybe the vendors are being a bit too ambitious with the chilli ice cream lolly as feedback revealed it hadn\u2019t been as popular with consumers as other popsicles.
