Do you have a soft spot for all things blush pink? Same.

Who can resist the ultra-feminine hue! Whether youโ€™re styling a fall outfit or planning your next colourful foodie share for Instagram, blush pink is on trend and here to stay. Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m so smitten for this gorgeous, not to mention delicious, Luxe Strawberry Fizz. 

This post has been sponsored by the California Strawberry Commission.ย ย All opinions are honest and personal.


This Fall, Sip on This

Yes, this lovely cocktail just happens to be in one of fall 2020โ€™s most popular colours. But more than being totally stunning, itโ€™s positively delectable. 

California strawberries give this fizzy and refreshing drink itโ€™s beautiful flushed shade. The good news? You can enjoy it all season long. While local strawberries are off-season, California strawberries are in peak season and readily available. You can find organic and conventionally-grown strawberries from the sunny state of California at your local grocery and natural products stores.ย 

Get Creative With California Strawberries

When it comes to strawberry recipes, the skyโ€™s the limit on what you can create. Whether youโ€™re a seasoned baker or youโ€™ve just recently discovered a passion for kitchen creativity, California strawberries are a must-have food accessory. They just bring that extra wow factor to make your foodie masterpieces pop. Most importantly, theyโ€™re bursting with sweet flavour!

It has to be said, theyโ€™re not just pretty. I mean, donโ€™t get me wrong, I love pretty food. But, at the end of the day itโ€™s all about taste and value. Did you know that one serving of 8 California strawberries has the same amount of Vitamin C as an orange! Iโ€™m all about getting my daily dose of Vitamin C.  Also to be noted, one serving is only 50 calories and strawberries are also a source of fibre. Which makes them a great choice for a healthy, balanced snack – or as a fabulously tasty accessory to any sweet or savoury recipe.
