Tropical is a good look on barbecue. Think grilled pineapple and mango, cool drinks to go with a hot grill. So why not add a tropical twist to your sauce? Guava nectar and jelly adds a sweet island flavor to this blend. Brush it on chicken while you're grilling, or use it to make some tangy pulled pork.

2 cans (11.5 ounce size) guava nectar
1 1/2 cup chopped onion
2/3 cup guava jelly
1/3 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup light molasses
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons dry mustard
Combine the nectar and onion in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the onion is soft.
Stir in the guava jelly, sherry, molasses, vinegar, tomato paste, garlic, cumin, and dry mustard. Bring to a boil again and stir constantly until the jelly dissolves.
Reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until sauce is thickened and reduced. Let cool.
Keep the sauce refrigerated for up to 3 days.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
