The way you seem to be doing it, would work fine for both timezone aware and naive datetime objects. If you want to also add the timezone to your string, you can simply add add it with %z or %Z, or using the isoformat
method:
>>> from datetime import timedelta, datetime, tzinfo
>>> class UTC(tzinfo):
... def utcoffset(self, dt):
... return timedelta(0)
...
... def dst(self, dt):
... return timedelta(0)
...
... def tzname(self,dt):
... return "UTC"
>>> source = datetime(2010, 7, 1, 0, 0, tzinfo=UTC())
>>> repr(source)
datetime.datetime(2010, 7, 1, 0, 0, tzinfo=<__main__.UTC object at 0x1054107d0>)
# %Z outputs the tzname
>>> source.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z")
'2010-07-01 00:00:00 UTC'
# %z outputs the UTC offset in the form +HHMM or -HHMM
>>> source.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z")
'2010-07-01 00:00:00 +0000'
# isoformat outputs the offset as +HH:MM or -HH:MM
>>> source.isoformat()
'2010-07-01T00:00:00+00:00'
