Celebrating #SmallBusinessSaturday

Today on #SmallBusinessSaturday and (everyday) it's SO important to shop small, shop local and support your friends and family's businesses.

I started Fruta POP on a mission to create a product that I wanted to enjoy myself and that didn’t exist yet: gourmet, alcohol infused ice pops without any added sugars, syrups or dyes.

I was working as a publicist in the corporate PR world and left my job to pursue my passion in the food and beverage industry. I always loved frozen cocktails, but they were always filled with a lot of sugar and bad ingredients. I was shocked that a healthier option didn’t exist and I wanted to change that. Together, with my life-long love for ice pops, I set out to create gourmet, low alcohol-infused ice pops without any added sugars, syrups or dyes. Today, I work with some of the world’s largest brands, start up companies, restaurants and top chefs to create speciality alcohol-infused ice pop flavors, my dream job!

I'm SO grateful for everyone that I’ve met on this journey, during the good times, the challenging times and everything in between.
