Looking for a fun family drink? Or maybe a chic cocktail for your 4th of July party?

Celebrity party planner Kinsey Schofield suggests trying these recipes:

Bubbly Firework Beverage

What you'll need:
2 Ice trays
Kool-aid in Strawberry
Kool-aid in Berry Blue
Strawberry flavored soda water

Mix Strawberry kool-aid in a regular size pitcher and place in ice tray to freeze.

Mix Berry Blue kool-aid in a regular size pitcher and place in ice tray to freeze.

Once frozen, empty cubes in to Strawberry flavored soda water.

Displayed in a clear glass, as the ice melts, it appears to be fireworks dancing through the soda's bubbles.

Pretty cocktail, much?
What you'll need:
A cranberry-flavored adult beverage that rhymes with yodka
White cranberry juice
Blueberries 
Bag of frozen raspberries
Ice tray

Crush your bag of frozen raspberries to the point that the raspberries are in a billion little pieces. (This is also very good therapy if you've had one of those days...)

Fill your ice tray with filtered water and sprinkle raspberry remnants throughout.

Allow ice to form. At least an hour in the freezer.

Pull out frozen ice tray when you're ready to mix those cocktails!

Half adult beverage - Half White cranberry juice.

Add those raspberry ice cubes as well as several blueberries for decor.
