House & Garden

Iced Irish Coffee

A classic Irish coffee revives in the winter, but in summer, we prefer this chillier version.

Frozen Daiquiri

Ditch the shaker and break out the blender. We’re cooling off with lightning-fast frozen daiquiris.

Salty Dog

With its signature salted rim, this vodka and grapefruit cocktail is one easy summer drink.

Ayran

This frothy salted Turkish yogurt drink is endlessly refreshing.

Beef Yakitori

Like the Tripoley and cribbage we used to play so often together, yakitori is something of a tradition in my family. Dad's navy career had us living in Japan for a few years (I was born there), and just outside the gates of the base was a small yakitori restaurant my parents often patronized. This recipe is based on one my mom came home with from Japan. These flavorful skewers can be made with chicken in place of beef, if you wish. I recommend using boneless, skinless chicken thighs; they remain more tender and juicy on the grill than does chicken breast meat.
