This tablescape pops with a patriotic theme without being too busy. It is very clean, elegant and still has a fun, inviting feel to it.
Of course you cannot go wrong with traditional hot dogs and hamburgers. What could be more American right!?! We couldn’t agree more however there is nothing wrong with stepping it up a bit either. Surprise your guests with some grilled chicken or shrimp to go along with a caprese salad!

Combine the first 5 ingredients in a pitcher. Makes 8 one cup servings. Garnish with seeds, if desired.
Lemon Drop Martini
1 1/2 oz Grey Goose® vodka
1/2 oz triple sec
1 tsp superfine sugar
3/4 ozfreshly squeezed lemon juice
Mix the Grey Goose vodka, triple sec, sugar and lemon juice in a cocktail shaker half filled with ice cubes. Shake well to make sure sugar is blended.
Blue Hawaiian
1 oz Light Rum
1 oz Blue Curacao
2 oz Pineapple Juice
1 oz Cream of Coconut (optional)
