Watermelon Agua Fresca
Agua fresca, Spanish for cool water, are two words you want to hear on a hot night—or, in this case, cool watermelon. Lime and sugar supercharge the naturally refreshing taste of the fruit into pure chilled liquid sunshine. Tequila shot optional!

Corretto Iced Coffee
«Caffè corretto is an Italian drink that’s usually served warm, but we gave it our own seasonal twist: chilled, over ice. In the summer, the Test Kitchen makes this cool treat to end the week—a perfect Friday afternoon pick-me-up.” — Étienne Marquis, chef and recipe developer

Grilled Butterflied Chicken
Butterflied, or spatchcocked, is the way to go when barbecuing chicken. The meat stays juicy because the thighs cook at the same rate as the breasts. Some people like their bird on the bone and some don’t, so always do two: one deboned, the other chopped into pieces. That way, everyone’s happy!

Veggie Tacos with Melty Cheese
Barbecue-roasted poblanos or green bell peppers have a smoky bite
over an easy-melting cheese and unexpected pings of pomegranate. What grounds this veggie option with an earthy crunch is roasted pumpkin seeds spiced with cocoa, cinnamon and smoked paprika—our nod to Mexico’s dark mole sauce. -

Cajun Salad with Fried Okra, Blackened Corn, Green Beans and Kielbasa
This bold, spicy number is our nod to New Orleans, the birthplace of jazz. Each player holds its own: The crispy fried pieces of popcorn okra bounce off shaved strips of blackened corn, while smoky grilled kielbasa slices are punctuated by the fresh snap of blanched green beans. Tossed with a Cajun-spiced dressing (keep extra for dipping), this brassy bowlful suits any outdoor grilled feast.

Mint Chocolate Popsicles
Take a rich, homemade, mint-infused ice cream, dip it in dark chocolate and you’ve got the most decadent dessert on a stick ever. This pop demands some added prep, but one bite and the payoff is clear.

Grilled Cornbread Muffins
The cornbread buns are cooked in a muffin tin on the barbecue, too, and then finished off on the grill for added colour.
