PHOENIX ...
Phoenix is Sandra Lee’s beloved white cockatoo and
the iconic symbol of the Cocktail Time brand.
Phoenix the mythological bird that arose from the
ashes each time it was reborn symbolizes the regrowth
of our fresh fruit ingredients in summertime each year
and the freedom we share when it’s Cocktail Time.

It starts with real Florida key limes, natural cane
