Brand new to Le Creuset's famed line of cast iron cookware (available in a fabulous array of colors, including Cupid red, Le Creuset's signature orange, and a shade we like to call “Le Cordon” blue), this hot wok would put any skillet stir fry to shame. We could cook in this pot every day of the week, and not just stir fries. The wok comes with an instruction manual filled with recipes for wok-cooked stews, noodle dishes, braised meats, and deep-fried desserts. With its tightly fitting glass lid, the wok even works for steaming. Its flat bottom spreads heat more evenly than any other wok we've ever tried.

Zico Coconut Water

What's the latest drink to cool off a hot kitchen? Coconut water. Of course, the slightly creamy, fragrant water at the center of the coconut has been quaffed to quench thirst in the South Pacific for centuries, but the concept is catching on in less sun-soaked climates thanks to companies like Zico, who are packaging the drink and delivering it in neat, single servings.

We love Zico for their flavored waters, including passion fruit and mango. But most of all, we like the straight coconut flavor, packed with potassium and a clean, fresh taste.Check out this month's news and special offers for special savings on your first Zico order.

Robert Lambert White Ginger Syrup
We love this sexy nectar so much that we've chosen to feature it in our Aphrodisiac of the Month Club. Sweet as honey, it's made from slow-simmered white ginger. Its aromas are as heavenly as an afternoon on a Tahitian beach. A drizzle on ripe mango with a sprinkle of fresh mint - the only thing that could possibly beat it would be a Samoan somebody to hand feed you from orchid-scented, fleshy fingers.
