Hang a backyard swing.
Turning an empty backyard corner into paradise is easier than you may think. A colorful rug, a floating couch, and plants pull together a space, but it’ll be a porch swing that steals the show.

Make beautiful wine cubes.
It’s always a great time to have wine! Freeze your favorite wine in ice trays (about 1 ounce per cube), then pop one or two into a light pour to make your glass last longer. You can also add a few cubes to sparkling water to keep it light.
Have a melon mosaic appetizer.
If you want to keep the cube trend going, transform an appetizer into a work of art. Arrange cubed watermelon, cucumber, beefsteak tomatoes, feta, and halved cherry tomatoes into a grid. Then drizzle olive oil on top with a dash of salt, pepper, and mint!
Create a plant stand cooler.
Look around your yard and you’ll discover anything can become a party accessory, including a plant stand. After emptying it out, fill it with plenty of ice to keep drinks chilled. And if you’re feeling creative, fill latex balloons with water, freeze overnight on a baking sheet, and add them in with the drinks.

Enjoy thyme-plum moscow mules.
That’s right, your favorite drink just got better. In a pitcher, stir together vodka, lime juice, sliced plums, and sprigs of fresh thyme. Gently stir in ginger beer before serving over ice. Remember to garnish with more plums and thyme. Cheers!
Rethink your hotdog toppings.
Summer wouldn’t be complete without hotdogs, but this year, we encourage you to remix your toppings in unexpected ways. You can thank us after trying one of these duos: napa cabbage with scallions; purple cabbage and carrots; cucumbers and radishes.
