Baking extracts was what I searched for...

Here are the results I found that show pictures without an obvious red syrup:

Also, this candy making place lets you ask questions:

They have a strawberry extract but I can't tell if it has food coloring or not.

I imagine you'll need a LOT of this, eh?

Congrats on the Lakeside Suite! Too bad you can only have a party for what, 35 people?

yeah, the size limit and the banquet license and having to shutdown the booze at 1:45 are annoying changes
but having a wetbar to work with should rock

Try a commercial baking supply company. Just be sure to try it out a bit. The stuff is usually pretty concentrated. Alot!

www.naturesflavors.com has a whole line of organic flavor extracts, so far the ones I have checked have no color and the top page description says they are best in "clear beverage applications".
Ingredients on the Strawberry reads: Water, Gum Acacia, Organic Ethyl Alcohol, Natural Flavors.
Yum, they have raspberry too.

If you want an actual storefront locally you might try Trader Joe's, Marlene's Market or PCC Natural Market. I know I have seen organic (no dye) flavor extracts at either Trader Joe's or Marlene's - just don't remember offhand which it was...

Wow, thats a tough one. I use strawberry flavoring all the time at work and even the artifical stuff is real expensive and contains a little bit of red in it. You might be better off switching flavors.
