Memorial Day weekend is the official start of grilling season and—for many of us—outdoor drinking. While beer is a natural pairing at a cookout, don’t feel the need to set your whisky aside on those long summer days. Many summer grilling staples pair naturally with whisky—just keep the firewater away from the flames, folks! One pro tip: even if you usually drink your whisky neat, consider throwing an ice cube or two into your dram if you’re out on the patio or lawn. It’ll help temper the heat of the season, plus it’s refreshing!
