Pro Tips for Perfect Layers
- The drinks must be very cold — chill everything in the fridge beforehand.
- Use plenty of ice — it acts as a barrier between the layers.
- Pour super slowly directly onto an ice cube, not straight into the liquid.
- If your layers start to mix, just stir and enjoy it as a patriotic punch!
Fun Variations
- Make it sparkling: Use lemon-lime soda or sparkling water for the white layer.
- Adult version: Add a splash of vodka or coconut rum (but keep some alcohol-free for the kids!).
- Bigger batch: Mix in a large pitcher but serve over ice in individual glasses to keep the layers.
