Description

A fun and festive red, white, and blue layered punch perfect for kids at patriotic celebrations like the Fourth of July.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup cranberry juice (or fruit punch)
  • 1 cup lemonade
  • 1 cup blue sports drink (like blue Gatorade)
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Fill a clear glass halfway with ice cubes.
  2. Pour the cranberry juice slowly over the ice to create the first layer.
  3. Next, carefully pour the lemonade over the back of a spoon to create the white middle layer.
  4. Finally, slowly pour the blue sports drink over the back of a spoon to form the blue top layer.
  5. Garnish with fresh berries if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Pour liquids slowly over ice and the back of a spoon to maintain separate layers.
  • Use drinks with different sugar contents to help the layers stay distinct.
  • Chill all ingredients beforehand to prevent ice from melting too quickly.
