The 4th of July is a day to celebrate the independence of the United States. What better way to celebrate than with some drinks from Payless Liquors? From refreshing beers to festive cocktails, your guests will have a blast sipping on these drinks while enjoying the fireworks.
Beer: Nothing says summer quite like an ice-cold beer. Stock up on classics like Budweiser and Coors, or try something new with a local craft beer. If you’re feeling adventurous, go for a beer cocktail like a shandy or a michelada.
Wine: For a more refined celebration, stock up on some wine. You can’t go wrong with a crisp white wine like Pinot Grigio or a bold red like Cabernet Sauvignon. Make it patriotic with wines from the US, like a California Chardonnay or a Washington Merlot.
Whiskey: For those who prefer something stronger, whiskey is always a good choice. You can go for a classic whiskey sour, or try something festive like a red, white, and blue shooter. Don’t forget the ice and cocktail shaker!
Cocktails: If you’re feeling creative, try making some cocktails inspired by the 4th of July. A classic margarita with fresh blueberries and strawberries is perfect for summer, or try a blue Hawaiian with pineapple juice and blue curacao. You can even make a non-alcoholic version for kids and designated drivers.
