Summer- the season of long beach days, roadtrips, and barbeques.
On your summer adventures, what could be better than your favorite summer foods chilling in the cooler? That's right, nothing. Certain foods just scream summer, and are your go-to for the 3 months of summer we get to endure.
Such as:
1. Watermelon
On a hot summer day, not much can compare to a bowl of fresh cut watermelon.
2. Brats & Hamburgers
When dad fires up the grill, you know you'll be eating good.
3. Potato salad
One of my personal favorites. Eating potato salad in any other season is just weird.
4. S'mores
Sitting around the campfire and enjoying an ooey, gooey s'more is a favorite summer tradition of mine.
5. Beer
Not that beer isn't praised year round, but summer triggers a certain trait in everyone that makes them want to reach for a cold one.
6. Corn on the cob
Corn on the cob is obviously way better than that canned stuff you eat during the winter when your mom puts it in casseroles.
7. Freeze pops
Within the freezer of every suburban American is bound to be a box of freeze pops.
8. Kabobs
Once again, when the grill is fired up, it's going to be a good meal. Kabobs are special because they're more extravagant than hot dogs or burgers.
9. Juice boxes
They were delicious as a child and nothing has changed.
10. Ice cream
Similarly to beer, there's no ideal ice cream eating time, because ice cream is great all the time. However, there's something special about making a trip to your favorite ice cream shop in summer.
11. Fruit & veggie trays
At any given graduation party or family gathering in the summertime, there's bound to be a store-bought fruit and veggie tray.
12. Lemonade
A tall, refreshing glass of lemonade is always my go-to summer drink. Restaurants with flavored lemonades are the best.
After reading this mouth-watering article, do yourself a favor and pour a glass of lemonade before firing up the grill for dinner tonight.
