Fourth of July Drink Recipe – The Red and Blue Sparkler

The Fourth of July is coming!  Are you ready?  With this lovely drink in your hand, you definitely will be.  Everyone needs a little refreshment to cool you off as the heat radiates from your grill.  Then, as the sun goes down, the fireworks go up- and I’ve come up with a sweet “firework” of my own that you can share at your Fourth of July party.  I call it the “Red and Blue Sparkler” because of the fruit laden swizzle stick that adorns it!

This nonalcoholic beverage is made with Kraft brand Crystal Light Pure plus some strawberries and blueberries.

And here’s where I found the strawberries and blueberries in the “Fresh Produce” section.

The recipe is simplicity itself.
