Whether or not you celebrate U.S. Independence Day today, this is a fun drink. This gorgeous layered shooter cocktail is called the Fourth of July. It’s pictured here with vodka on top, but you can also layer cream on top for a true white effect. (Here’s how to pour a layered cocktail.)
The overall flavor of this drink is a blend of pomegranate and orange – fruity, but not too sweet, and agreeable to most people’s palates. You can pour these before a party starts and put them in a tray in the refrigerator and bring them out as a surprise after dinner drink for guests. The presentation possibilities are amazing.
Fourth of July
Layer equal amounts of the following, in this order:
- Grenadine
- Blue Curacao
- Cream or Vodka
Enjoy responsibly while watching the fireworks!

So I know this is a bit late and I doubt anyone will read this but if you could tell me where you got that shot glass I would be INCREDIBLY happy!!
Unfortunately, Draper, I’m not sure where the shot glass came from. I looked around for one like it you could order online, but I’m not finding it. If I ever see anything close to it, I’ll post a link here.
There were some similar glasses like this at Marshall’s, if you have one in your hometown. sorry posting is wayyyy late.
