Funkin is now introducing two all-new skinny cocktail mixers to its assortment, each of which can be used to make cocktail drinks that have less than 100 calories when they are paired with the recommended spirit. The brand recommends pairing its 'Skinny Mojito' with white rum, and its 'Skinny Sex on the Beach' with vodka.

The Skinny Mojito and Skinny Sex on the Beach are made with stevia, a zero-calorie natural sweetener. Other natural ingredients are present in these cocktail mixers, including citrus fruits, English mint, cranberries and peaches.

These new skinny cocktail mixers have been launched by Funkin as a way to satisfy a growing consumer demand for [low-calorie cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vodka-refreshers), as well as those that are made with [naturally sourced ingredients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allnatural-mixers).
