Our Strawberry Lemonade Cocktail made its debut at O, The Oprah Magazine’s Live Your Best Life Weekend where Truvia® natural sweetener was an official sponsor. We made ours in both a cocktail and a mocktail version and the blend of sweet and tart was a huge hit. Try it for yourself and let us know what you think.
