Summer, like everything else, is bigger in Texas. It starts in spring and ends at Christmas—we’re kidding, but only kind of. Even with a Texas-sized summer season, it can be hard to make sure you’re living your best summer life. That’s where H-E-B comes in, to bring you summer fun items they know you’ll love, because H-E-B brand products are always made to Texas, with love. Follow this easy guide to ensure you live it up this summer.
DON’T FORGET THE H-E-B SUNSCREEN
We love a sunny day; it’s not summer without them, but we also know we’ve got to keep our skin protected on those long, leisurely summer fun outings as well as during exciting, active summer escapades. H-E-B keeps you covered (literally) with a full line of sunscreens made with high-quality ingredients for year-round protection. Try out their line of brand-new scents including Cucumber Water, Peach Bellini, Rosewater, and Strawberry Daquiri. Those refreshing flavors are making me thirsty! Which leads me to our next bit of advice—

DON’T FORGET TO BRING THE BEEF WITH H-E-B PRIME 1 BEEF BURGERS
It’s not a Texas get together without these Prime 1 Beef Burgers. Whether you’re having folks over to show off the new backyard grill or living the chuck wagon life at a beautiful Texas State Park, H-E-B makes sure all the ones you love can enjoy juicy, tender USDA prime beef. Maybe your crowd fancies themselves cowboys at heart—if so, try the Cowboy Burger, studded with bacon bits and seasoned with spices and smoky flavors. Or perhaps your crew dabbles with a little heat? In that case, try the Fiesta Jalapeño Burger for a delicious patty with jalapeños, pico de gallo, and hunks of cheddar cheese. The best part of all is these burgers are freshly prepared in store, so you have a fresh-made patty without any hassle.
DO MAKE YOUR COOKOUT MENU COMPLETE WITH H-E-B LIMITED EDITION CHIPS
Sometimes those summer fun days slip away too fast, much like these delicious, limited edition flavors from H-E-B. Don’t let the summer get away before you try the latest and greatest flavors dreamed up by the H-E-B Salty Snacks team. What could go better with a burger than Black Pepper Ketchup Thin Potato Chips? Cut through the rich flavors of your Cowboy Burger with the pleasant sharpness of the Citrus & Cayenne Ridged Potato Chips. Sweeten up that savory plate with Sweet Lime Corn Chips. Any of these limited time items will be sure to thrill the guests at your summer cookout. Better get them fast though—these chips are only available while supplies last.
DON’T BE AFRAID TO TREAT YOURSELF WITH H-E-B CREAMY CREATIONS LIMITED EDITION ICE CREAM
Every year the imaginative minds behind Creamy Creations put out seasonal, limited time flavors. Some might say that summer and ice cream go together like Texas and cowboy boots, so in a way, the summer season is the ice cream World Series. Don’t miss these champ flavors. What could evoke the feelings of a Texas summer more than the new Texas Campfire flavor? Enjoy all this chocolatey goodness with graham cracker swirl, peanut butter cups, and mini marshmallows. H-E-B is also dedicated to giving back to the community with its new Full STEAM Ahead flavor. The proceeds from this chocolate ice cream with brownies, fudge swirl, and sprinkles will be donated to various STEAM organizations across Texas. For those who love ice cream, but maybe have to be careful with lactose or sugar—you’ll love H-E-B Mootopia chocolate ice cream. It’s lactose free and contains less sugar than traditional ice cream.
DO ENJOY THE SEASONAL FRUITS OF SUMMER
Nothing says summer like some tasty, refreshing, juicy chunks of watermelon. Bonus points if they’re seedless. No more worrying if there’s a watermelon growing in your belly!
