Loving Summer Food and Drinks
Whether you enjoy a bit of alcohol or prefer non-alcoholic options, summer cocktails and mocktails are a delight. Classic mojitos with mint and lime or a tropical piña colada made with coconut milk and pineapple juice can transport you to a beach paradise. If alcohol is off the menu, omit it for a delicious mocktail version.
For those who prefer less sweetness, iced teas and infused waters are perfect summer beverages. Brew your favorite black tea, add sliced fresh peaches, and let it chill in the fridge. Serve over ice with a sprig of mint. You can also cut a cucumber, add it to a pitcher of water with a handful of fresh mint leaves, and let it sit in the fridge for a few hours to infuse. Another option is to combine slices of lemon, lime, and orange with a few basil leaves in a water pitcher. Chill and enjoy a refreshing citrus drink.
