by Cascade Ice on August 23, 2012

Labor Day is just around the corner which means one thing – it’s time for a mini-vacation! For those of us unable to jet off for a weekend getaway, try some of our low-calorie Cascade Ice drinks for your own vacation-in-a-bottle.

While you’re relaxing over the upcoming long weekend, mix up a Cascade Ice Berry Pomegranate Cooler. Start with a cup of fresh strawberries, half a cup of ice cubes and 5oz Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Cranberry Pomegranate. Blend all the ingredients together and garnish with a couple of pomegranate seeds. To make this into an adult beverage, add in vanilla vodka to taste and enjoy!

 

Reminiscent of a delightful beach getaway, Cascade Ice’s Citrus Punch is sure to help you unwind.  Simply mix 6oz Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Pink Grapefruit and 6oz Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Orange Mango in a pitcher. Add in 4oz of peach juice to sweeten it up a bit.  Stir, then cut some fresh fruit to garnish. Looks tasty, doesn’t it?!

Now you can really kick up your feet and relax with Cascade Ice’s recipes for Labor Day. Don’t let the long weekend fly by!

Dessert makes everything sweeter, doesn’t it? Try incorporating some refreshing and decadent desserts into your after-dinner plans! We’ve got the perfect recipe for spicing up a batch of jello by using Cascade Ice’s Organic Mixed Berry Sparkling Water. Cascade Ice adds an unexpected burst of fruit flavor to the mix that will leave you asking for more!

  • 3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder in red
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 ½ cups champagne
  • 1 ½ cups Cascade Ice Organic Mixed Berry Sparkling Water
  • 1 ½ cups sliced or whole strawberries

Mix the powdered gelatin with the water in a saucepan and bring to a boil until mixture is dissolved.
