Make these Red, White and Blue Floats to celebrate the 4th of July. Only three ingredients and you will have a popular treat to celebrate our country’s freedom!
Anyone else looking for any and all cold treats to beat the heat? Oh my word, it’s hot. Like I feel like I know how the old witch felt in Hansel and Gretel when they pushed her into the oven. I can’t bear going outside for anything other than to get the mail. Even then, I usually talk one of my kids into grabbing it. Can someone please invent outdoor air conditioning, please? Thanks.
These floats, you guys. They are so easy and will be a hit anywhere you serve them. At home, at your 4th of July picnics or just whenever. It’s hard to call this a recipe, but there you go. The blue is a little hard to see in the photos but it’s there. It’s just a light color and unless you want to add blue food coloring to the drink, that’s what you get. You can use any blue drink you like as long as it’s carbonated. Blue Gatorade or Kool Aid won’t foam up so stay away from those types of drinks. I hope you like these Red, White and Blue Floats!
- Vanilla ice cream
- Blue soda like Mountain Dew Voltage

haha, I love the heat. I really do. Until about August and then I’m dying for some breezes. And rain. But right now…bring on more heat! And a few floats would be nice too. These are awesome. PINNED 🙂
Oh I die in the heat! If I had a pool to jump into, I wouldn’t mind it. And let’s not even talk about humidity. Thanks for pinning!
I love this idea! So cute for summer parties. And who can resist a float?
I didn’t even know that Mountain Dew made blue soda! That’s fun!
My family loves it! Thanks, Beth!
Love these! What a great idea. Thanks for all your yummy recipes.
it’s SO hot here too Mandy – I feel like we hibernate most of the summer – but these floats would be a great way to beat the heat
