{Thirsty Thursday: 4th of July Edition}

With Independence Day right around the corner, I have stars & stripes on the brain. The Fourth of July was always a holiday that stood out in my mind growing up. I love everything about it: the parades, the BBQ and, most importantly, the fireworks!

If you’re planning a Fourth of July soiree, try some of these cocktails. In order to really be the hostess with the mostest, concoct these beverages {it’s easy, just combine ingredients} prior to the party in mason jars with lids and keep in a tub over ice. It’s Americana to fit into the party theme and your guests can serve themselves, freeing you up to mingle & enjoy the holiday.
