To celebrate our first big get together in a long while, we’ll pull out all the stops with a fresh, summery feast. Many of the components can be prepared in advance, so we’ll still have plenty of R & R time on the beach. For everyday sipping, unsweetened black iced tea with fresh mint or lemon is my go-to, but a party requires something special, and nothing beats an ice-cold [Arnold Palmer](. This recipe calls for our [lemonade concentrate]( which can be used as the base for a number of refreshing drinks. It’s always a treat to kick off corn season with these [light, crisp fritters](. Don’t skip the [Maple-Chipotle Mayonnaise Dipping Sauce]( smoky heat is the perfect match for the sweet corn. Making these luxe [New England Lobster Rolls]( will be a family project: We’ll boil the lobsters, chill them down, then sit around the kitchen table (covered with newspaper to collect the shells) to pick out the meat. If you’re going to put in the effort to make homemade lobster rolls, don’t settle for store-bought chips. You’ll be surprised by how easy [this recipe for Crunchy Kettle Potato Chips]( is. We’ll finish off our stellar meal with a [frozen treat that combines strawberries and cream](. The ruby ripple that tunnels through the vanilla ice cream combines fresh and freeze-dried berries for a deeply fruity taste.
