SHOPPERS will be able to buy an alcoholic version of a popular childhood drink this week as it hits stores.
SunnyD Vodka Seltzer is set to debut at Walmart in the US soon, and fans knew it has "always been for adults."
Sunny D is a nostalgic drink for many shoppers and fans are very excited about the new launch.
One Twitter user wrote: "They really made Adult SunnyD."
Another fan tweeted: "SunnyD has always been for adults."
Harvest Hill, the company who owns SunnyD since 2016, said it will be available for purchase in the US only starting March 11.
Ilene Bergenfeld, chief marketing officer of Harvest Hill, said the launch of the alcoholic drink was created per fans' requests.
"So, we looked at the hard seltzer category, and thought, good, but we can do better. And SunnyD Vodka Seltzer was born," said Bergenfeld.
WHERE TO FIND THE DRINK
The drink will first be available in select Walmart locations.
A four-pack will cost $9.99 (£8.44).

The new hard seltzer contains real fruit juice, sparkling water, a natural orange flavor, and vodka.
Each can contains 95 calories and zero grams of sugar.
Unfortunately for Brits, it will not be available in the UK at this point.
TASTE TEST
Before SunnyD decided to launch the beverage, it actually did a taste test.
It was a blind taste test to try its new vodka seltzer.
The response was positive as "consumers love the taste and think it's unique in the hard seltzer category," SunnyD wrote in a statement.
"SunnyD Vodka Seltzer is meant to be enjoyed with friends, when it's time to connect and chill out," Bergenfeld said.

MORE PRODUCTS HITTING THE SHELVES
SunnyD isn't the only one introducing new products to the market as Oreo recently launched a new product too.
The brand launched a new sweet for an out-of-this-world experience with Martha Stewart and Meta.
The new cookie is called The Most Oreo Oreo.
What's special about the cookie is the filling because it has ground Oreo cookies mixed in.
The brand collaborated with Meta and Martha Stewart to invite fans to join them on a Metaverse experience.
"The Most OREO OREO cookie gives fans a whole new way to playfully engage with us. By scanning the pack, they will 'dunk into' the new OREOVERSE world," said Julia Rosenbloom, senior brand manager, of OREO.
Fans should be able to find the Oreos at their local Walmart or Target.
One fan, Jerseyfoodfinds, found The Most Oreo Oreo cookies at her local Walmart in New Jersey.
If you don't see the Oreos on the shelves, it's probably best to ask employees or staff from the retailers to see when they'll have them in stock.
Each store has a different inventory, so some may have more in stock than others, and some may hit the shelves before others.
