In celebration of June being National Iced Tea Month and in honor of the Fourth of July holiday, Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka is sharing fun party tips and recipes that will light up your summer scene.

National Iced Tea Month is a time for stirring up favorite Firefly Sweet Tea Cocktails and raising your glass with one of America’s favorite refreshers.

Only with Firefly, “This ain’t your grandma’s sweet tea!”

As June gets underway, plan a Fourth of Firefly holiday. Create an “On-the-Fly” get-together with virtual party kits that are available on http://www.fourthoffirefly.com.

Firefly attributes its success to being genuine, all natural and all American. The Firefly distillery is located on Wadmalaw Island, South Carolina. Firefly co-founder Scott Newitt comments, “As a ‘Founding Father of Firefly,’ I am proud to be from South Carolina, where you can find the nicest people serving up some of the best Sweet Tea in the country. That’s because it’s Firefly Sweet Tea, and I invite you to join us as we toast the bounty of Iced Tea with the beauty of our country.”

The name “Firefly” comes from the simple joy that fireflies bring. Newitt adds, “There is a basic element of happiness that people experience when they are around. I remember being mesmerized by them when I was younger. I used to catch them in mason jars. I wanted to bring that summer feeling to life. I think our Sweet Tea Vodka does that, especially when it’s served out of a mason jar.”

The distillery currently offers a full portfolio of Sweet Tea spirits. You can check them out at http://www.fireflyvodka.com. Remember: This ain’t your grandma’s sweet tea!
