Out of tequila? Never fear: Using vodka instead makes this watermelon margarita recipe just as delicious.
The beergarita perfectly encapsulates laid-back summer sipping in a single pitcher, combining the familiarity of a margarita with the effervescence of beer.
Using frozen strawberries means no need for ice cubes. White rum adds just enough booze and fresh lime juice, bright acidity.
Juicy peak-season tomatoes make the perfect plant-based swap for aguachile.
This light and drinkable cocktail pairs the bittersweet flavor of grapefruit with botanical gin and sparkling sake for a bubbly finish.
Froyo for one, made in a blender and topped with a crackly magic shell.
Letting just-grilled, still-warm peppers marinate in a bright and punchy vinaigrette allows the flavors to permeate even further.
This no-oven-needed crisp can be made with almost any fresh berry (we’d avoid raspberries) and comes together within 45 minutes.
Upgrade any cookout—or keep the cooking on the stovetop—with these smashed cast-iron bison burgers, then stack with lemon mayo and a crisp cucumber-onion slaw.
