Fourth of July Cocktails
Red, White, & Blitzed Party Shot
Make sure each layer is completely set before you add the next one in this impressive Jell-O shot. It should stay put when you tilt your pan sideways.

Spiked Seltzer Slushies
If you thought a can of White Claw was perfect on its own, you haven’t given it a whirl in your blender. This recipe (if you can even call it that!) can be easily customized based on what flavors and fruits you prefer. Our favorite combos: lemon-flavored spiked seltzer + frozen strawberries or mango + frozen pineapple.

Cape Codder
The Cape Codder (or Cape Cod cocktail) is simply the more official–and cute–name for a vodka-cranberry. If you want to go the extra mile (like we so often do) you can add a splash of lime juice and garnish with a lime wedge.

Red, White & Boozy Shakes
Because freedom means fruity milkshakes (with ice cream and sorbet) spiked with blue curaçao and vodka.

Frozen Watermelon Margarita
This recipe requires a little forethought. Chop up some fresh watermelon and throw it in the freezer the night before you make the margs—this ensures the drinks are perfectly slushy and ICE cold. (If you forgot, don’t fret! Two hours in the freezer should do the trick.)

Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri
For best results, we call for two types of strawberries: fresh and frozen. Using frozen strawberries gives body to the drink without watering down the flavor like ice would, and fresh strawberries add juiciness and a syrupy quality, keeping the drink from being too thick. That squeeze of lime? Essential. The fresh citrus kick will make the strawberries shine even brighter in flavor.
