July 4th red, white, and blue drink ideas?

Question

I'm looking for something lightly alcoholic, and colored red, white, and blue... any ideas? Thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

I make this every year....it's soo yummy!

Drink Up: Red, White and Blue Sangria

Traditional sangrias are luscious, bold blends of fruits, wine and spirits, often served in pitchers or punch bowls. But this wonderfully refreshing summer drink from Spain and Portugal leaves plenty of room for improvisation.

To make simple syrup (the sweetener used in many sangria recipes), combine 1 cup water with 1 cup sugar in a small saucepan, then heat until the sugar is dissolved. Cool completely before using.

Serves: About 7

Prep time: 15 minutes

Chill time: 4 hours

1 bottle dry white wine

1/2 cup triple sec

1/4 cup citrus- or berry-flavored vodka

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup simple syrup

3/4 cup blueberries

3/4 cup hulled and sliced strawberries

3/4 cup raspberries

1/2 cup pineapple chunks

Combine all ingredients in a large glass punch bowl or pitcher and stir well.

Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours. Serve over ice

Answer 2

red white and blue jellow shots you could probably layer them too.

Answer 3

You could make three different colored frozen blender drinks and pour them in layers.   For example,  red- strawberry daiquiri,  white- pina colada,  blue- blue Hawaiian.

Answer 4

There are blue wine coolers (in 4 pks) and big bottles of blue Hurricane mix; that you'd put on the blender with ice (liquor is included) ....  You could put a slice of white peach and a maraschino cherry on picks and put those into them ......

Frozen PINK SQUIRRELS - they're thick, like a almondy milkshake and you could sprinkle a couple of blueberries on top
