This No-Cook Picnic Will Get You Through Summer
It's time to take it easy.
Honeydew, Cucumber, and Mint Soda
Water infused with cucumber and mint gets a bit of natural sweetness from ripe honeydew melon. The salt in the drink helps with rehydration, while lime juice and club soda balance it out.
Green Olive Tapenade
Cerignola and Castelvetrano olives are big, briny, meaty, and sweet. If unavailable, use other types, or simplify with just one.
Yogurt Tartar Sauce
Using yogurt instead of oils to make tartar sauce does three things: it lowers the fat content; gives it a zingy yoghurt tang; and also brings probiotic cultures into your diet. It’s a win, win, win.
Apple Slaw
Serve this tangy vinegar-based slaw with roasted pork or Guy Turland's smoky Barbecue Brisket

Emerald Isle
Created to incorporate the seasonally grown herbs from our rooftop garden, this unique cocktail is one of my summertime favorites. The pot still Irish gin has a soft and floral profile, so if you’re unable to procure it, I would go with one of the recently released lower-alcohol gins of your choice, steering clear of juniper-heavy renditions. The ingredients complement each other so well, you can’t help but taste something distinctive and different in every sip. It’s a must-try.
