Summer Treats Must Make List

Recently I shared my summer eats must make list and today I'm sharing something even sweeter - my summer treats must make list.  In my quest of trying new recipes, I'm highlighting dessert and cocktail/beverage recipes that I'm hoping to try this summer.  On the summer theme, you can click here for my summer bucket list and here for my summer staples.   I've already gotten the chance to try out a couple things from the eats list (which I can't wait to share soon) so I'm hoping to get to try out a few of these summer treats soon as well.

 If you missed part one, it highlighted summer appetizers, entrees and sides - which had me craving a BBQ asap just to test some of them out.

 Desserts 
I feel like summer meals need a nice small dessert afterwards and that my sweet tooth is more active than ever.  Who can say no to ice cream on a hot day??

Smores bars {via}
Summer sand pudding {via}
Homemade ice cream {via}

Cocktails & Beverages
Best for last or what?! In the cooler months it's either a glass of wine, martini or beer in my hand.  In the warmer months, there are just too many fun cheerful drinks to try.


Strawberry & lime moscato punch {via}
Watermelon lemonade {via}
Malibu summer rose cocktail {via}
Beach house cosmos {via}
What summer treats are your favorite??

 You can also find me guest posting over at Colors of Life  sharing one of my favorite things… hosting.  Be sure to stop over and pay Molly a visit!

    Heck yes on the strawberry shortcake. I'm also all about the banana pudding in mason jars. Both summery and southern! And absolutely on the homemade ice cream. I've made it quite a few times already this summer :)

    I could use two or three of those Beach House Cosmos! And homemade ice cream is such a staple at our house in the summer! We're planning to make some this weekend for the 4th of July!

    I have a hard time saying no to rose and ice cream during the summer. They're both so perfect when the weather is hot.

    I like frozen "preacher cookies", also known as no-bake cookies. I use this recipe, but with 3 cups of oatmeal instead of two. You can freeze them and still bite into them easily after a minute or two. http://www.cooks.com/recipe/yw8e49iy/preacher-cookies.html
