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 has the least amount of sugar allowing it to stay on top.
This would also be perfect for birthday parties or any other fun summer get-to-gathers.

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!
Pretty and perfect for the holiday!
Very patriotic!
We made something similar to this a few years ago! The kids loved it 🙂 Thanks so much for the reminder – may need to try this version this time!
A great holiday drink, Evelyn! Thanks for sharing and hope you have a wonderful July 4th holiday!

I'm trying a layered punch tomorrow. Thanks for the sugar content tip. I'll look at my labels and see which "layer" has the most sugar! 🙂
Looks so delicious and refreshing!
I love this and the fact that it is kiddie friendly! Thank you for spreading JOY and sharing at the Oh What a HAPPY Day party.

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.
I'm so bummed mine turned into a red mess :(. Your's turned out great!!
Really cool! And thanks for the science lesson, lol!
Thank you for linking too. I apologize for being so far behind!
