-Hey, everyone.
It's Brooklyn and Bailey.
And today, we decided to do a 4th of July
craft because here in the United States
in the next couple of days, we are
celebrating the 4th of July.
So we are downstairs in the kitchen,
because the craft involves food.
So let's get started.
OK.
First off, we're going to do two different kinds
of red, white, and blue drinks.
The first one is red and blue layered.
And the second one is--
-Berry ice.
-They're like, red, white and blue berry ice.
So the first thing to do for the red and blue layered drink
is you want to almost overflow your glass with ice.
-Because ice is the only thing stopping the two colors
from meshing together, so ice is very, very important.
-Yes.
So then you want to take your cranberry juice
and pour maybe like this much in your glass,
because the blue sometimes doesn't
work if you put a lot of red in.
-That's probably good.
-Then you'll take your blue Gatorade Frost
and you pour it over the ice really slowly,
just so that it won't mesh.
-And, as you can see, it's now a blue and red--
-Drink.
- layered drink.
-There you go.
-Now we'll start with mine.
So to start off, we'll explain how we made the berry ice.
All you need is an ice tray and raspberries and blueberries.
And you just fill the ice tray full of water
and stick the berries inside of the ice.
-The ice.
-And you freeze it like that.
So then it comes out with the raspberries and blueberries
frozen inside of the ice cube.
-They look pretty cool.
-We'll start by putting a bunch of our homemade ice
inside of the drink.
And again, you'll want to overflow it,
but this time it's just for fun.
-I bet you can probably eat the berries once it--
-Yeah, once it freezes.
- --unfreezes.
-I mean, unfreezes.
There we go.
And then we'll just take our Gatorade Frost
and pour it into our cup.
-And there you have your red, white, and blue berry ice.
And just for fun, we used red vines as our straws.
We just cut the tops and bottoms off.
-Yeah.
Just cut the ends and the tops off, and there are your straws.
-Next, we're going to be doing like, a fruit--
-Flag.
- --American flag.
Like, the red, white, and blue stripes and stars.
-Yeah.
And the products you need are just strawberries,
and you'll just cut those in half.
Bananas, and you'll just slice them.
And then blueberries, and you'll just leave those alone.
And then you need some kabob sticks
and a tray to hold your flag.
-There's two different kinds of kabob
sticks you will be making.
The first one is the beginning of the flag that has like,
blue with the stars.
So you'll use blueberries.
-And then the second half is the part
where it's just red and white.
-OK.
You'll want to start-- so you'll put a banana on.
You want to put it on lengthwise and just stick it up there.
And push it up so it's about maybe
a little more than halfway.
And you'll take the strawberry and you'll put it on,
push it up next to the banana.
Take another banana, stick it through.
Strawberry.
Stick it through.
And then on the top, you'll want to do four, maybe five,
blueberries just to put the blue in there.
Four and five.
And then you'll just set it down on your pan
and you will do three other kabob sticks of this.
So do you want to show them how to do the next one?
-OK.
So mine is the part of the flag where it's just red and white.
So we'll start with the strawberry
on the bottom like this, and then we'll put on a banana.
Strawberry.
Banana.
Strawberry.
And you'll just keep going.
So there should be four strawberries and three bananas.
Like this.
And that will go on the end of the flag.
And we'll just keep doing this and building our flag.
As you can see, we just finished our fruit American flag
for the 4th of July.
There you go.
You can see it better.
-Don't forget to follow us on Instagram @BrooklynandBailey.
-And we will see you guys next week.
Bye.

-Just go like this.
How's the kabob?
-Pretty good.
Juicy.
-What?
-Juicy.
-Oh, I thought you said goose-y.
I don't know.
-Goose-y.
