Craving the slightly sparkling hard lemonade of summers past? We were too, and happily discovered that it can be recreated with ingredients already buried in our pantries and bar cabinets. Finally, a use for that dusty bottle of limoncello — a wine spritzer that melds candy-coated flavor with a grown-up palate.

Your favorite ’90s dreamboat is up to new things. Freddie Prinze Jr. just released his first cookbook, Back to the Kitchen: 75 Delicious, Real Recipes (& True Stories) from a Food-Obsessed Actor, after his wife, Sarah Michelle Gellar, convinced him he needed to share his talents with the world. I was able to sit down with him during his promotional tour to talk about the book and get the scoop on his favorite pint of ice cream.

It doesn’t get more classic than sweet White Zinfandel when it comes to wine coolers, and quite honestly, they’ve never tasted better. Whether you’re a White Zinfandel lover, or despise anything labeled “blush,” there’s a reason this sweet pink stunner was the highlight of 1980s drinking culture, and it comes down to taste.

Even without the rhubarb, tomato dumplings are a mystery to those who didn’t grow up eating them. They are an old-fashioned favorite of some grandmas and meat-and-three diners.

Ice cream may seem like a cruel joke to those who are lactose intolerant, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Jocelyn Delk Adams, the voice behind the popular blog Grandbaby Cakes, has just the pint you should seek out if you’re trying to avoid dairy. And bonus!

What a pound of grapes looks like will surprise you. So often, we get into the habit of buying fruits and vegetables that have been pre-measured and pre-packaged for us — and while the convenience can’t be beat when we’re in a rush, it does disconnect us from knowing what a pound should look like. Here’s how you can confidently purchase a pound of grapes by sight.
