"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."I know we already decided on the drink of the summer, and I’m not saying we’re taking that back. What I am saying, though, is that there’s a worthy competitor that almost outshines it. What is it? The Sarti Rosa. It’s a type of spritz similar to the Hugo Spritz or the classic Aperol Spritz—except this one is an apéritif liqueur made with Sicilian blood oranges, passionfruit, and mango.

Let’s be real: sometimes things don’t go as planned, and you’ve just got to take matters into your own hands. That’s exactly what one McDonald’s customer did when his McFlurry wasn’t mixed properly.

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."I’m a huge fan of Capri Suns. Not to be that type of foodie, but they’re honestly the best summer drink to quench my thirst. The only downside? Their tiny, small AF sizes. I’m sorry, but that pouch just doesn’t cut it. One sip and the next thing I know, I’ve downed the entire thing. Well, good news: Capri Sun knows the struggle and is finally giving us what we want—a bigger version.

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."It may be a guava summer, but we’re all obsessed with pistachios right now. I mean, have you seen the number of pistachio-flavored products popping up at Costco and Trader Joe’s? It’s all thanks to Dubai chocolate taking over our taste buds.

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."The widespread Gemini hatred is uninformed and unwarranted. As president of the Gemini Defense League, a club that I just made up but am incredibly passionate about, I feel that we should be regularly acknowledging all of the amazing contributions these people make to society. Sure, they can be a bit brash and just a little two-faced.
