Keeping Fizzy

Looking for the perfect refresher after a long day of watching LPGA action. Grab a Fizzy Beez!

Launched earlier this year by LPGA Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam along with her husband Mike McGee, and business partner, Kathy Johanson, Fizzy Beez has expanded to four ready-to-drink flavors and is available through the Greater Cincinnati area.

Fizzy Beez is a full-flavored, canned cocktail available in Mojito, Cosmo, Margarita and Moscow Mule, all sweetened with a touch of pure organic honey.

“I’m always on the go and have always cared about being healthy and active. When I relax and want to enjoy a cocktail, I want it to have flavor. So, we made our own RTD’s with natural ingredients we can feel good about,” Sorenstam said. “We are also female owned and give back through our Fizzy Beez Promise.”

Sorenstam is often regarded as the greatest female golfer of all-time. During her 15-year, Hall of Fame career, she rewrote the LPGA and Ladies European Tour record books, won countless awards, and changed the way women’s golf was played, viewed, and covered.

As a champion of sustainability, Sorenstam and the Fizzy Beez team have committed to giving back to non-profit organizations who take care of bees and the ecosystem. The first recipient of the Fizzy Beez Promise was Cincinnati’s own Queen City Pollinator Project, a non-profit committed to protecting pollinators of every sort through education and beekeeping.  

QCPP was born out of the friendship that founders Carrie Driehaus and Jenny O’Donnell formed over a beehive and a cup of coffee. They were quickly dubbed Bee-FFs and within a few months, they had formed a 501-C3 with the goal of changing the world. Soon after, the duo became a trio when Sylvana Ross joined the call to action.

“The Fizzy Bee Promise to sustainable business practices through recycling and supporting non-profit organizations who care for our pollinator communities aligns with Kroger’s goals to reduce climate impacts and conserve natural resources,” said Jenifer Moore, corporate affairs manager for the Cincinnati/Dayton Division. “We are proud to partner with Annika to offer a fresh product to our customers just in time backyard barbeques with family and friends.”
