Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups blue sports drink like Powerade or Gatorade
  • 2 cups lemonade
  • 2 cups cranberry juice
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh blueberries and strawberries for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. Start by filling a clear glass or a mason jar with ice cubes to keep the drink chilled.
  2. Carefully pour the blue sports drink into the glass, filling it about one-third of the way.
  3. Slowly pour the lemonade over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect. This should fill the glass another third of the way.
  4. Finally, again using the back of a spoon, gently pour the cranberry juice to fill the glass to the top. This will create a beautiful red, white, and blue layered effect.
  5. Garnish with fresh blueberries and strawberries on top if desired.
  6. Serve immediately with a straw or a spoon for mixing.

Notes

  • For a non-sweetened version, use flavored sparkling water instead of the sports drink and lemonade.
  • Add a splash of coconut cream on top for a tropical twist and creamy texture.
