8 4th of July Traditions
5. Digging into a tub of ice cream
Ice cream soda and soda fountains are American ice cream desserts without which the 4th July parties are incomplete.
6. Celebrating with apple pies
From early 19th and 20th century, the Apple pie has been a national dessert made in all American homes. A 4th July feast is incomplete without apple pies.
7. Enjoying 4th July special appetizers
Ice tea and lemonades sure are a great away to cool your spirits, but to add a certain zing to the festive mood, you must have Patriotic pina coladas, red and blue stripped punch and firecracker drinks.
8. Organizing outdoor parties
An outdoor party with all neighbors gathered together celebrating the festive occasion is an old 4th July tradition. The party is complemented by traditional family cuisine, cold lemonade with mint garnish and of course the traditional Flag cake for dessert which is held as a great way to celebrate.
