White Lily flour is widely used throughout the South. Made with only soft winter wheat, it is finer, lighter, and whiter than other types of flour.

We love our sweet twist on a daiquiri: mango mixed with dark rum, sugar syrup, and lemon juice (in place of the traditional lime).

Like a creamy orange ice-cream pop, this cocktail marries vanilla and orange. But the drink includes two liqueurs, so it’s for adults only.

If you prefer to serve alcohol-free cocktails, omit the tequila—the drink is still delicious.

Seltzer enlivens this effervescent drink, which consists of sweet honeydew melon puree and mouth-puckering lime juice.

You may substitute dark corn syrup for the golden syrup, but the flavor will vary slightly. If the cookies get too cool to shape, return them to the oven for a few seconds until they soften.

If any drink was made for leisurely back-porch sipping, it’s iced tea. Our version is brewed from zesty hibiscus tea, which is made from copperyred hibiscus leaves and is naturally caffeine free. Ginger syrup and lemon juice add layers of flavor.

To make a fizzy version of this recipe, use seltzer or sparkling water.

This ginger beer is very spicy. Adjust the amount of lime juice and sugar to your taste.

Almost any type of fruit nectar can be substituted for peach with equally delectable results. We especially like the exotic flavor of mango.

For spiked drinks, pour 1 ounce vodka over ice into each glass before topping with limeade.
