We’re all going to need something to cool us off as we sweat away before a barbecue pit this Memorial Day, savoring the delicious aroma of brisket or kabobs. I wouldn’t mind sipping on a nice cool glass of leejaywv’s Coconut Lemonade. Before diving into cdieter’s Barbecue Beef Brisket, I’d probably munch on something like egreco’s Mangolian Beef Kebabs with Chile Jam. She uses New York strip steaks to make these juicy kebabs that are lathered in a peppery jelly or jam.

After eating such a heavy but satisfying meal, you’re probably going to want something smooth to wash it all down. Eliorakiah’s Cucumber Sake Shots might be what you need. Lime juice, watermelon rum, and sake combine to make the perfect summer drink. Stephaniekim’s Lemon Drop Shakes offer the sweetness of ice cream and the fresh tartness of lemonade to yield a yummy, alcohol free beverage.

Whether you’re roasting in the sun, or relaxing by the pool, we hope you all have a delicious Memorial Day weekend :)!
