It’s Memorial Day weekend and we are having our kick off the summer season barbecue! We are surrounded by great friends, food, and good times as we kick back and enjoy the first of many parties! As we plan for the barbecue we go shopping at Sam’s Club to stock up on everything that we will need!
We get the grill going with these Coca Cola glazed chicken skewers that are full of flavor with the sweet, bubbly taste of Coca Cola!
This glaze is sweet and tangy with classic Coca Cola, lime, garlic, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar! With a creative labeled can of Coca Cola in one hand and a chicken glazed skewer in the other you will be good to go at any barbecue! I had a great time handing out the different Coca Cola cans labeled, bestie, superstar, grillmaster and more! It added an extra great element to an already great barbecue!
