Ingredients
- 1 cup Cranberry juice
- 1 cup Lemon-lime soda
- 1 cup Blue sports drink (like blue Gatorade or Powerade)
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 0.5 cup Whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons Red, white, and blue star-shaped sprinkles (optional)
- 0.25 cup Fresh blueberries (optional garnish)
- 4 pieces Straws or festive cocktail stirrers
Directions
Step 1
Fill a tall, clear glass about halfway with ice cubes. Use clear plastic cups for a classic party feel or glassware for a more elegant look.
Step 2
Pour the cranberry juice into the glass first, filling it about one-third of the way. Allow the liquid to settle for a moment.
Step 3
Gently pour the lemon-lime soda over the back of a spoon (held just above the cranberry juice layer) to create the second white layer. This prevents the layers from mixing. Fill until the glass is about two-thirds full.
Step 4
Repeat the spoon technique to pour the blue sports drink as the final layer. Pour slowly to maintain the layered appearance.
Step 5
Top the drink with a generous swirl of whipped cream for the 'frosty' effect.
Step 6
Sprinkle red, white, and blue star-shaped sprinkles on the whipped cream for added festivity. Garnish with fresh blueberries if desired.
Step 7
Insert a colorful straw or festive cocktail stirrer and serve immediately, admiring the patriotic layers before mixing to enjoy!
