8 PATRIOTIC RED, WHITE & BLUE ITALIAN CREAM SODAS
It is a super festive as the drink naturally separates into red, white and blue colors. It’s perfect for Memorial Day, 4th of July, or anytime you feel like being patriotic!
9 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE LEMONADE
A very simple recipe for lemonade and the strawberries and blueberries make this non-alcoholic beverage red, white, and blue. The lemonade is both sweet and tart. The berries add just a hint of flavor.
10 Red White & Berry Slushie
Frozen flavored malt beverage with a blend of blue raspberry, cherry and citrus flavors, makes this a perfectly refreshing and cooling drink to enjoy anytime this summer.
11 Firecracker Margarita
Hint: Cherry pop rocks are redder!
12 Firecracker Spritzer
The layering isn't that hard, because when you pour grenadine is heavy enough to sink to the bottom of any cocktail.
13 RED WHITE AND BLUE PINA COLADA
Red White and Blue Pina Colada is such a great flavor combination that gets even better as the layers bleed together. Think classic Pina Colada flavors with strawberry and Blue Curacao!
14 Sparkling Red, White and Blue Sangria
To start, stir together white wine, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and orange in a large pitcher but the real sparkle comes with how the garnishes come together.
15 Red White and Blue Frozen Sangria
A blended frozen sangria with raspberries as the red layer.
16 CAPTAIN AMERICA COCKTAIL
Pro tip: Place a spoon with the bowl facing down against the side of the glass, and slowly pour in the vodka mixture over the back of a spoon.
17 Patriotic Limeade
A fun and light recipe perfect for 4th of July BBQs or picnics. It’s slightly unexpected yet absolutely refreshing – and incredibly simple to make!
18 July 4th Cocktail
The best part is that it can be made ahead of time and each layer can be stored in the freezer. Then, when you’re ready to serve, add the colorful layers into a glass!
19 Labor Day Cocktail
The bright red, white and blue colors of this Labor Day cocktail make it perfect for the Fourth of July too.
20 Blue Cocktails
This blue cocktail is also known as an ocean breeze cocktail. Whatever you call it, it is an easy tropical drink that’s quick to make in either a single serving or a large batch!
21 CHERRY BOMB COCKTAIL
The cherry bomb cocktail is one of my go-to july cocktails. Cherry lovers will all agree.
22 SMIRNOFF RED, WHITE, AND BERRY VODKA COCKTAIL
Smirnoff’s red white and berry vodka cocktail combine Smirnoff's Red, White, and Berry vodka with the berry lemonade Sparkling Ice water.
23 Red, Blue and White Layer Drink
Let me let you in on a little secret for layered drinks. SUGAR! Yep, the trick is the sugar content. Sugar has a high density so ingredients with the highest sugar content will sink and you can create these wonderful layers.
24 Blue Margaritas
This cocktail is perfect for your 4th of July festivities – that blue will fit perfectly into your red, white and blue decor! I also love that margaritas are cocktails you make in a cocktail shaker – it adds some fun and flare to any gathering!
25 Captain America Kids Drink
Blue Gatorade is a great swap for the kool-aide. Even use a zero sugar one if you want to reduce the sugar content in the layered 4th of July drink.
26 Blue Shot of Jello
To get jello shots out of the cup, use your tongue or finger, or use the lid of the cup like a spoon.
27 July 4th Bomb Pop Drinks
Make this one for kids or adults using easy store-bought ingredients. In fact, the kids version only uses two items!

This red, white and blue cocktail is inspired by a summery twist on the margarita made with tequila and fresh watermelon—and is the perfect way to toast to America’s birthday.
