Is there a Kauffman bracket invariant of colored links?

I want to distinguish between links where the components have different (or same) colors. In the Alexander polynomial we can assign a different variable to each component, but what about a Kauffman bracket? Is there a generalization so that we could distinguish between multi-component links where some of the components are colored?
