This non-alcoholic drink comes from Taste of Home and is sure to keep you coming back for seconds all summer long. An easy take on a classic, this rosemary lemonade is fresh, fun, and not to mention beautiful! To make this drink combine 2 cups of water and 2 fresh sprigs of rosemary in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and cover and let simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and discard the rosemary. Add ½ cup of sugar and ½ cup of honey and stir until sugar is dissolved. Transfer to a pitcher and let chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
Once chilled, add 1 ¼ cups of lemon juice and 6 cups of water. Stir until everything is well incorporated. Serve over ice and garnish with a sprig of rosemary and a lemon slice. We can’t wait for you to try this delicious concoction!
This mocktail is the perfect drink for a relaxing warm summer day. With just a few ingredients and even fewer steps to create, this refreshing drink combines the refreshing citrus of lime with delicious mango to bring you something you can sip on all day. This recipe comes from the Food Network and starts with 4 ounces of mango juice, two ounces of fresh lime juice, and one bottle of ginger beer. To create this simple yet delicious drink, divide the mango and lime juice between two glasses. Add ice and top with the ginger beer. Garnish with sliced mango wedges and lime wheels!
A classic sweet treat without the alcohol, this recipe from Delish is the perfect way to make you feel like you and your loved one are on vacation without ever having to leave the comfort of our community. To create this beverage you will need:
In a blender, combine all ingredients apart from the pineapple wedges and cherries. Blend until smooth. Divide into two glasses, garnish with pineapple and cherry and enjoy!

Last month, chefs from across Sunshine Retirement Living came together for our annual Chef Conference to cook, learn, and connect with the people who make our culinary teams so special. 💛
From plate presentation and photo-ready dishes to collaboration and leadership, our chefs shared their knowledge and learned from one another. Together, they explored their own “culinary DNA” and reflected on what it means to truly listen to the teams they lead.
Beyond the presentations, there was time to cook side by side, exchange ideas, welcome new chefs, and catch up on life outside the kitchen. Those moments matter. They’re how colleagues across the country become the Sunshine family.
A special thank-you to Spencer Guzman, PhD, MBA,CEC, who leads our Sunshine chefs nationwide, for the hard work, care, and inspiration behind this year’s conference.
And to every chef who attended, presented, cooked, or shared an idea, thank you for making this gathering what it was. Whether you’re new to Sunshine or have been with us for years, your experience, creativity, and dedication make our entire team stronger.
At the heart of it all are our residents. What we learn together comes back to their tables through the meals we prepare and the care we put into every dining experience.
That’s the Sunshine difference.
