The Gayest July 4th Party Cocktails

Holidays are a good excuse to gorge on tons of good food and have loads of fun. I've learned over the years that there's no holiday or party that can't be celebrated, gay. Don't show up to this year's Independence Day gathering empty-handed. Let your best friend Sharon bring the potato salad; you bring the ingredients to make the most fabulous cocktails. You'll be the life (and sometimes savior) of the party:

• The Perfect Cosmopolitan Cocktail
  What you need: Vodka, Lime Juice, Triple Sec...


• A Great Gay Mojito
  What you need: Light Rum, Mint Leaves, Club Soda...


• Smooth Gay Martini
  What you need: Gin/Vodka, Dry Vermouth...


• The Gay Fuel Mimosa
  What you need: Champagne, Orange Juice...


• Mary Margarita
  What you need: Tequila, Triple Sec...


• Bold Gay Bloody Mary
  What you need: Vodka, Tomato Juice, Lime...


• Diva Daiquiri
  What you need: Light Rum, Powdered Sugar, Lime...
