Fresh peaches are my official mark of summer. I have the most distinct memories of devouring those fuzzy flavor bombs on the beach when I was young, peach juice dripping down my little sun-kissed chin.

Additionally, should your peaches sit on the counter a little too long, utilizing overripe peaches in a recipe is the best way to prevent peach waste.

When I was a child in the Philippines, my mother made mango float all of the time in the summer. She made the dessert from the mangoes that my father harvested from our farm. Mango float is a no-bake, four-ingredient dessert made popular by The Philippines, whose national fruit is the mango. The chilled dessert consists of sweet, ripe mango stacked between layers of whipped cream and held together by crisp graham crackers. This results in a splendid cake-like dessert that’s ideal for summer.
