When I think of the Fourth of July, I don’t think of fireworks, picnics, or sparklers. Instead, I think about our town’s parade. We were never able to watch it, because we were always in it!
Our neighborhood had a small “band” called the **** St Marching Brigade. . Adults played trumpets and drums while us younger kids played kazoos, tambourines, and maraccas.
It was pretty silly but we did manage to win some prizes.
If you are going to be marching (or just BBQing) this Fourth of July its important to stay hydrated. Make staying hydrated delicious with my easy Red White and Blue cocktail recipe.
Plus it looks super festive. People will wonder how you did it! In truth it couldn’t be more simple. The secret is in the sugar. Layer drinks with the highest sugar content on the bottom, and the lowest at the top. (Levels can be found on the food labels).
