National “Bomb Pop Champagne” Day

Today is National Bomb Pop Day so what better way to celebrate than with a Bomb Pop Champagne. Who knew that was a thing celebrating a fun summer drink day lol. Should have expected it, because there is a day for everything.

I love the fact that this fun Patriotic popsickle is celebrated just before the holidays.

National Bomb Pop Day

What actually is a Bomb Pop and why is it celebrated? That was the question that first came into my head. U.S. National Bomb Pop Day pops up on the last Thursday of June each year, so this year it will be celebrated on June 30, aka TODAY.

The Bomb Pop. The frozen confection and special summer treat known as the Bomb Pop was a patriotic popsicle for a patriotic time in American history. It was the staple of many an ice-cream truck, with its iconic red-white and blue color scheme, was born in July back in 1955.

The Bomb Pop turned 50 years old in 2005! In honor of the 50th anniversary, this would become the very first National Bomb Pop day. And here we are celebrating.

Ingredients for the Bomb Pop Champagne Cocktail

Lets gather our ingredients and start some magic.

Pop Bomb Celebrations

The Bomb Pop is easy to spot, thanks to its very colourful design. Three stripes of bright colors that are reminiscent of summer, and available in a wide variety of tastes. The most recognizable is obviously the original red, white and blue design – but plenty more are available.

Today I am sticking to the Patriotic theme because it is almost July 4th. Celebrating in style with a Bomb Pop Champagne.

Making the Patriotic Cocktail

Snap Crackle or Fizz, I prefer the fizz obviously. Time to create the perfect July 4th Cocktail a Bomb Pop Champagne Cocktail.

1. Fill a champagne flute or wine glass 2/3 of the way full.
2. Place a bomb pop in the glass. The bomb pop will add fruity flavors to the champagne.
3. Cheers.
