Happy Independence Day!

Celebrate your Fourth of July with a delicious homemade cocktail for you and your loved ones. Whether you need mocktails or boozy drinks, we’ve got it covered.

Here are our favorite Fourth of July cocktails.

Big Batch Lemon Verbena Lemonade

This is the perfect way to hydrate the whole family. This lemon verbena lemonade recipe is the tastiest of lemonades. With just a bit of lemon verbena to complicate the flavors, it’s not too sweet or sour — it’s just right.

Watermelon Mint Margarita

This watermelon mint margarita is one of our proudest margarita recipes. It’s perfectly refreshing and a sweet take on the classic cocktail. Use blanco tequila to get the right flavor and top it off with a bit of freshly harvested mint.

Grapefruit Champagne Cocktail (& Mocktail)

Finish off your night of celebrations with this Champagne cocktail. It’s the perfect cocktail for toasting and comes in a mocktail version so no one is left out. Grapefruit and sage elevate the drink to make it a toast worth remembering.
