Ahead of the Barbie movie's official release, the brand is partnering with Swoon, a zero-sugar drink brand that is known for its best-selling lemonades and sweet tea. The new Swoon x Barbie Pink Lemonade is sweetened with real fruit, which ensures the sugar content stays at zero. The beverage comes packaged in a pink can with Barbie and Swoon branding on the front, fruity imagery, and "limited edition" text wrapped around the top.
"We are beyond excited to be partnering with a brand as iconic as Barbie," said Jennifer Ross, co-founder of Swoon. "Both of our brands focus on celebrating life's little moments and elevating the everyday things we all do, so we hope this product can be a moment of joy for fans of both of our brands."
