Answer:

B. Namely

Explanation:

The conjunctive adverb <em>namely </em>is the best choice here because it connects the vague noun "something sweet" with the clause that turns that noun into something more specific (strawberries). While all the other options are grammatically eligible, none of them makes sense in connecting these independent clauses with a semicolon (which implies a very close connection in meaning).
