As Memorial Day and 4th of July approaches, it's time to fire up the grill, grab a picnic blanket, and indulge in some patriotic summer treats. Whether you're hosting a backyard barbecue, a pool party or joining in on a potluck picnic, I've got you covered with a selection of easy but decadent desserts and drinks that are sure to be the highlight of your celebration.

Sour cherry pie is a summer classic! If you love the tart flavor of sour cherries, this is the pie for you.

Strawberry shortcake is a beloved treat this time of year, but here's the truth: it's challenging to get the shortcake (and the berries, for that matter) just right. Say Hello to shortcake bars. Filled with berries and perfectly portable.

Maybe you love cheesecake as much as I do. This creamy strawberry-basil mix might sound odd but what grows together goes together. Plus, you can bake this a couple days in advance.
