Feeling parched and dry, overcome by the summer heat? Or does your sweet tooth need satisfying but you don't want a heavy dessert? Versatile frozen drinks are the answer to both.

Frozen drinks are perfect summertime quaffs. Refreshingly frosty, these glacial sippers can make you feel almost cool with just their frigid-sounding names: The Blizzard, The Big Chill, or Frosty Noggin. Some are tropical in nature, combining spirits or liqueurs with fruit juices, and blended with ice. Served in tall, generous glasses and garnished with an assortment of seasonal fruits, they're best slowly sipped through a straw while envisioning sugar-white beaches and swaying palms. Others are creamy concoctions made with ice cream, bringing back sweet memories of long-ago summer treats.

Ice cream based frozen drinks, often mixed with liqueurs such as creme de cacao, amaretto, or Irish cream and topped with whipped cream, also make delicious dessert substitutes. Just imagine sipping a Strawberry Shortcake or Raspberry Cheesecake after a satisfying meal. Or how about savouring the classic blend of peach and raspberry flavours in a Peach Melba Freeze?

You'll find plenty of luscious recipes in this section, for both summertime and year-round enjoyment. Next time it's ninety in the shade, with a little help from your blender, you can quickly catch a Tidal Wave or feel a Maui Breeze. Or grab your Inner Tube and float out Over the Rainbow. And when you're hankering for a creamy treat, any time of year, you'll find a recipe that sure to put you on Cloud Nine.
