Cocktail Freezies So Good, You Can’t Just Sip One

Spring into April with these eight products. You’re going to fancy them; I guarantee it. Which one are you going to try first?

Yolélé Fonio Chips

Yolélé Fonio Chips

I love these grainy salty chips. They are thin, crispy and addicting. My favorite is the Greens! Moringa + Baobab. It’s like munching on a bowl of savory greens. Yummy!

Retail price: $20 (4 pack)
Size:  5 oz.
Available: https://yolele.com

 

Nectar of the Vine, Sangria Wine Slushy Mix

The sugary mix takes the guesswork out of preparing a tasty slushy sangria. Add it to a bottle of dry merlot and equal parts water. Freeze or drink liquidity. Either way, I enjoy slurping down this fruity blend. Other cocktail flavors are available.

Retail price: $15
Size: 10 oz.
Available: https://www.nectarofthevine.com

 

Tastefully Simple Orange Dreamsicle Bar Mix

Tastefully Simple, Orange Dreamsicle™ Bar Mix

This easy-to-prepare bar mix lives up to its name. The intoxicating orange fragrance brings back summertime memories. The creamy bars melt in your mouth. Simply scrumptious!

Retail price: $9.99
Size: 14 oz.
Available: www.TastefullySimple.com

 

 Heavenly Tea Leaves Ginger Lemon Green

Heavenly Tea Leaves – Organic Ginger Lemon Green, Essentials Collection

This succulent tea smells heavenly (pun intended) and lifts my spirits. The ginger and lemon complement each other. I’m fond of its earthy aftertaste when it’s hot and cold. Worth experiencing.

Retail price: $6
Size: .66 oz
Available: https://www.heavenlytealeaves.com

 

Nature's Bakery Bake-Ins

Nature’s Bakery Baked-Ins Chocolate Oat

Get your chocolate fix and feel good about it. This delicious plant-based bar consists of real fruits and vegetables. It’s soft, moist and not too sweet. The cake-like snack makes the perfect grab-and-go breakfast. I’m a fan!

Retail price: $6.00 (6 count)
Size:  1.3 oz.
Available: www.naturesbakery.com and Target

 

Wreck Beach Boozie Freezie

 Wreck Beach Boozie Freezie Frozen Cocktail

Not your kid’s ice pops. These lip-smacking freezies contain a hint of sugar so that the premium alcohol (7 percent) can shine. Each flavor offers a cool sensation on a warm night. The refreshing low-calorie cocktails will be hit with friends this spring. Sip, sip hooray!

Retail price: $24.95 (12 count)
Size:  3.3 oz.
Available: Wreck Beach Spirits

 

Absoutely Coconut Chews Key Lime

Absolutely Gluten-Free Coconut Chews Key Lime

Am I wrong for not sharing these delightful chews? Made with raw coconut and a backside covered in luscious dark chocolate, I have my reasons. The individually wrapped clusters taste great. Citrusy. Vegan. What else is there!?! Also available in blueberry, cocoa nibs and cranberry.

Retail price: $4.99
Size:  5 oz.
Available: Amazon, Walmart, or find a store on www.absolutelygf.com

 

Southern Caramel Bourbon Caramel

Treat yourself to a velvety bourbon-infused caramel. It uses top-shelf liquor and simple ingredients. The bitesize confectionary excites the palate. Most importantly, it puts smiles on faces. Delectable!

Retail price: $30 | $18 | $10
Size:  16 oz. | 8 oz. | 4 oz.
Available: https://southerncaramel.com
