Patriotic Drink

 Ahhhh…..refreshing!  Here is a sure hit at your Memorial Day cook-out!

Ingredients:  Strawberry pop,blue Gatorade,Diet 7 Up,and a clear glass with ice

Along with making a fun drink,this can also be a science lesson!  Show your kids the label.  The secret is in selecting liquids with varying amounts of sugar,since those that contain more (such as regular pop) are denser than those with less (such as diet pop and Gatorade). And that makes it possible to actually stack one on top of another (for a little while,anyway —then they’ll start to blend).

 The strawberry pop goes in first!  Pour over the ice to the desired level.

Next,pour the blue liquid,making sure to pour on the ice cube so the blue and red do not mix. 

Repeat with the Diet 7 Up.  Dont forget to pour directly on the ice cube! 

Enjoy this fun drink and keep experimenting with different colors!
