After the fanciful love of Cupid has floated away and before the flurry fun of Easter hops in, sit back and enjoy the jolly green month of March with Cascade Ice. Forget splurging on green lagers and milkshakes and celebrate with a Cascade Ice-inspired drink that is sure to keep that waistline trim!
Make sure your little leprechauns celebrate in style with Luck of the Irish Lemonade! The night before St. Patrick’s Day, fill an ice cube tray with water. Add a drop of blue food coloring to each cube and freeze overnight. The next morning, take a plastic tumbler and add in your blue ice cubes. Grab a bottle of Zero-Calorie Lemonade Cascade Ice and pour over the ice cubes. Gently stir your drink and watch it turn green! A green beverage? The little ones will LOVE it!
Once your leprechauns have gone to bed, raise a glass and cheers St. Patrick’s Day with a Shamrockin’ Martini! Fill a 16 oz mixer cup halfway with ice and add 1 1/2 oz of your favorite vodka. Drop in six small green apple wedges. Add 4 oz of Zero-Calorie Apple Tini Cascade Ice mixer and stir. Pour into a martini glass and enjoy! Want to add a little sparkle to your drink? Before pouring your drink in, dip the rim of your glass in cold water and sprinkle on green and white sugar sprinkles.
Cheers!

February marks National Heart Month and what better way to celebrate by raising a glass of Cascade Ice! You can be heart smart year-round with Cascade Ice, but in honor of this month, try mixing up one of these heart-friendly concoctions that you can enjoy any time of day!
Pomegranate Punch
Pomegranates are full of antioxidants including punicalagins, an antioxidant that is found to protect the heart.
In a tall glass, pour in one cup of Zero-Calorie Pomegranate Berry over ice. Squeeze in the juice of one lemon and sprinkle in fresh pomegranate seeds. Mix and enjoy!
Blueberry-Watermelon Spritzer
Blueberries are an excellent source of heart-healthy fiber!
In a glass, add 1/4 cup fresh blueberries. Gently crush using a spoon. Add one cup of chilled Zero-Calorie Blueberry Watermelon Cascade Ice and stir. Garnish with a small wedge of watermelon and drink away!
Pink Grapefruit Fizz
Grapefruit is not only high in fiber and low in calories; it also contains bioflavonoid, a chemical that protects against heart disease.
