For fun and festive 4th of July drinks for kids, consider patriotic slushies, sparkling berry lemonade, or a layered patriotic drink with cranberry juice, blue Gatorade, and 7-Up. For kids and adults alike – these drinks are a great way to celebrate the holiday without any alcohol. 

Here are some more ideas:

Blueberry Mojito: A non-alcoholic twist on the classic mojito, using blueberries, lime, and mint. 

Patriotic Slushies: Mix red and blue fruit juices or syrups with ice and blend until smooth for a fun, frozen treat. 

Sparkling Berry Lemonade: Combine homemade lemonade with a splash of raspberry syrup and sparkling water for a bubbly and refreshing drink. 

Patriotic Drink: Layer cranberry juice, blue Gatorade, and 7-Up in a glass for a visually appealing and festive beverage. 

Shirley Temple: A classic non-alcoholic cocktail with grenadine, club soda, and a cherry, perfect for kids. 

Watermelon Lemonade: Blend watermelon and lemonade for a refreshing and fruity summer drink. 

Frozen Strawberry Lemonade: Combine frozen strawberries and lemonade for a sweet and icy treat.

About Continuum

 

This is a custom sidebar. Continuum gives you lots of custom sidebar possibilities. You can use the Continuum Theme Options page to specify which pages have a unique sidebar. Or, you can use the same sidebar for all of your pages using the Sidebar Default widget panel. If you do specify that you want a unique sidebar for an area of your site, such as the Search page, you can use the corresponding built-in Sidebar Search widget panel.

In fact, Continuum comes standard with 19 unique sidebars. Wow, we're starting to sound like a car commercial, so we'll add that you don't have to use all of them if you don't want. Continuum harnesses the power of absolute customization while at the same time having a quality of meekness: you can forget about all the settings and get yourself up and running in no time flat.
