How to Make a Red, White and Blue Layered Patriotic Drink for Children and Adults

by 47 Comments

This Red, white and blue beverage is a fun drink for adults and children and perfect for celebrating the Fourth of July or Memorial Day.
 

 

 

 

 
This Patriotic Drink is almost a science experiment. The secret is the amount of sugar content.

The Sobe Pina Colada has the highest level of sugar thus making it denser and heavier and the G2 Blueberry-Pomegranate or Cool Blue has the least amount of sugar allowing it to stay on top.
 

 
It’s a non-alcholic drink so it’s fun for children and adults.  We usually serve it around Memorial Day Weekend and the 4th of July.

    Very cute! I tried making a layered cocktail recently, but it tasted terrible! These ingredients sound much more palatable. I'll give it a try, and thanks for the tip about which one is heavier. Very helpful!

    My new favorite is Pina Colada (alcohol, that is). Great idea for the layers. I would never have thought about the sugar levels vs. where the drink leveled off at.
