We try to celebrate everyday family moments as much as possible. Some of our favorite moments happen when we fire up the grill and plan a buffet-style barbecue for family and friends. This summer, we went back to basics with party favorites like fresh fruit, club sandwiches and salty sweet snacks.
In celebration of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games – happening now! – Coca-Cola is shining a light on the things the games inspire by celebrating the happy and humorous moments that go beyond the podium. #ThatsGold moments happen in our everyday lives, which is why were were thrilled to partner with them!
Just in time for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, we developed several original snack recipes. No ingredients were off limits! We did a (friendly) competitive taste test and these were the undisputed champions…
