Happy Bday, ‘merica! Almost. And in preparation for the big day that is all about red, white and blue, I have some fun and healthier cocktail recipes for your big 4th of July blowout.
The even better news? These particular mixers are dairy-free, gluten-free and have zero calories! Now when you add alcohol and other accouterment, the calorie count rises. But at least you aren’t getting them from your mixers. They are called Be Mixed. And they deliver fresh and natural ingredients without the added sugar. Hooray! And here are some fun recipes to get your party started.
