Tropic Like It's Hot

Frozen into a slushy, the classic tequila and grapefruit cocktail becomes even more refreshing.

Gourmet’s version of this perfect summer drink mixes the ideal ratio of vodka with cranberry and grapefruit juices, right in the glass.

Blend frozen mango, blanco tequila, and lime juice into these cooling margaritas. A Tajín rim adds a spicy-salty kick.

With elderflower liqueur, mint, and prosecco, the effervescent Hugo spritz cocktail is a hit year round, but particularly on warm nights.

A riff on the Bicycle Thief cocktail, a citrusy, low ABV riff on a Negroni, this three-ingredient, party-ready twist features grapefruit soda.

The kimchi brine is the secret hero here; just a splash of it brightens the cocktail while deepening it with a little funky je ne sais quoi.

This half-brownie, half-bar-cookie hybrid is a fun dessert that gets the ultimate birthday party treatment with colorful sprinkles.

Layer homemade custard, ripe bananas, and vanilla wafers under clouds of whipped cream for this iconic dessert.
