This just in: slushies. As in, frozen drinks are really hot right now. But instead of going for an icy strawberry margarita made with bottled mix or an overly sweet piña colada, make this Friday night's slush with Campari, gin, and citrus. This drink is inspired by the flavors of a Negroni: a little sweet, a little bitter, and incredibly quaffable. Cut up some Italian cheeses, lay out some thinly sliced prosciutto, and make your weekend all about la dolce vita.
This nutritious smoothie of kale, pineapple, coconut, and lemon juice combines all of the tropical flavors of a blender cocktail—just with more greens. And no alcohol.
This forbidden rice bowl is definitely not off limits. The nutty black rice goes really well with herbaceous cilantro and sweet and salty peanuts. The mangoes and citrus sweeten up the bowl—and add a burst of orange color that'll make your Instagram feed pop.
Ain’t no party like a kebab party. Get a one-two sweet and salty punch with coconut-marinated short ribs, or try soy sauce chicken kebabs sprinkled with sesame seeds and lemon. Serve with charred pineapple salsa and get ready to make a splash.
This chocolate-cinnamon babkallah combines the dreamy chocolate swirl of babka with the pull-apart eggy texture of challah for the greatest take on French toast a chocoholic could imagine.
Step one: get a big pot. Step two: get a big chicken. This recipe calls for poaching a whole chicken in a Sichuan-style broth, which saturates the bird with lip-numbing heat. Shred the cooked chicken into rice noodles and top with hearty kale and extra chili oil for even more heat. (The chicken can be made a day ahead of time; serve the dish at room temperature.) Cut through all of that spice with a creamy frozen dessert swirled with sweet summer fruit.
