Summer Cocktail Party

MENU: Summer Cocktail Party

Sour-Cherry Gin Slings
Based on the classic Singapore sling, this sweet-tart concoction replaces the traditional cherry brandy with an intensely vibrant homemade sour-cherry syrup. With a squirt of sparkling water, the syrup also makes a great base for kid-friendly cherry soda.

Corn-and-Chanterelle Crostini
This fast, flavorful appetizer combines two fresh summer ingredients in a clever, delicious way.

Greek Grilled Scallop Sandwiches
Chef Michael Psilakis uses a grilled, sliced scallop as the “bread” in his playful version of a finger sandwich, filled with plums, prosciutto and pea tendrils and topped with Greek yogurt.

Pancetta-Wrapped Peaches with Basil and Aged Balsamic
Chef Stuart Brioza sears sweet summer peaches in pancetta with fresh basil leaves for a crispy, juicy hors d’oeuvre.

Smoked Salmon Crisps
Top crunchy tuiles with store-bought smoked salmon and crème fraîche for a supereasy but super elegant hors d’oeuvre.
