LCBO Food & Drink Early Summer 2018

Summer is on the horizon and it will soon be time to carry the party outdoors. We have some great entertaining ideas that we hope will inspire you, starting with a menu full of early summer flavours perfectly suited to a girls’ night in. Talking of flavours, check out our savoury cocktails featuring fresh vegetable and herbal ingredients and our very thorough array of variations on a crostini theme. Who knew a piece of bread could be so adaptable! In the spirit of the season, Charlene Rooke offers a complete guide to sophisticated sipping tequilas—a great way to cap off an early summer evening.
