In about three days, we will all be lighting up our grills and celebrating independence day. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic stay-at-home suggestions, TGM Private Event Bartending isn’t able to come out and serve at your event. We miss seeing all of our friends and clients, sharing laughs, and making memories with their families and friends. Even though we can’t physically be there, we would like to share a couple of our favorite batch cocktails with you. These Fourth of July batch cocktails are simple, they are easy to clean up, and they are tasty. Make them the night before, throw them in a dispenser, set some cups out, enjoy the day with your family, and have a few laughs for us. We miss you, enjoy your cocktails and see you soon.
