To make it law so that energy drinks can't be sold to under 16s

What the petition asks
I was absolutely apalled when my 11 year old managed to buy an energy drink from the ice cream lady. The amount of caffeine, sugar and other ingredients not fit for kids. I think it's apalling that kids should be able to buy it.
