Happy Birthday to the United States of America! Being the most patriotic day, it was meant for backyard barbecues, block parties, parades, fireworks as well as indulging in your favourite drinks. Why not get a head start and start planning a red, white, and blue party that will for sure prove to be your summer highlight! You must create a fun vibe for your party guests.
When there’s no rain, consider hosting your bash outside, given that it will also make cleaning up easier. You can make some fun garlands, string up blue and red fabric pieces and probably even light Tiki torches! Get plenty of outdoor games, glow sticks and toys for the kids, check out this insane variety of toy swords for example – they’ve everything.
Get the Party Started Up With Rocking Tunes
There’s really no party without music playing in the background. In case you have a bunch of things to celebrate, you must keep the energy going as the day progresses and ensure guests are in high spirits and emitting positive vibes. You can maintain that atmosphere by having your version of a lip sync battle showdown. Organize your porch area with some decorations and a laptop filled with lyrics and songs. The party guests can showdown and offer some entertainment, particularly as the party ushers itself into the late night.
Serve Up Snacks
Keep your party guests happy and satiated with a wide range of yummy red, white, and blue snacks. Go for a mixture of baked goods, fruit, and savoury alternatives and make sure there’s a sufficient amount for tiding guests over between barbecues. You will want to have things like salsa and chips together with chopped veggies. You can make the setting extra festive by adding some 4th of July-themed treats such as white chocolate-dipped berries or cupcakes.
Go Local
The benefits of this holiday occurring during the hot summer days are the selection of fresh produce you’ll get for your bash, regardless of where you reside in the country. When selecting vegetables for snacks and fresh fruit, consider stopping by the local farmer’s market and get some blueberries and strawberries, some corn for grilling, and whatever is in season in your region.
Celebrate independence day by serving your favourite cocktail selection. You can even do better and get really festive! To get the trio of red, white, and blue drinks, consider serving up some Blue Moon Margaritas (so stock upon Margarita Mix and Margaritaville Silver Tequila for that particular one!), Piña Coladas and Raspberry Lemonade Margaritas. Also, accommodate the party to be family-friendly by including non-alcoholic versions of the drinks.
So what will you have to do to ensure your 4th of July party is unforgettable? Regardless of where you are, hopefully, you’ll get to enjoy the day eating and dining with family and friends with a cold beverage at hand.
