To celebrate Independence Day, we chose this refreshing and patriotic (read: blue!) cocktail because we thought it perfect for cookouts, pool parties and all kinds of outdoor celebrations. Make a large batch of this crowd pleasing fruity and floral cocktail to share at the cookout! This drink is sure to make you feel like celebrating!
