“Brat Summer” Salad

Very mindful. Very demure.

Pop artist Charli XCX tweated “kamala IS brat” and the rest is history. Gen Z knows what we’re talking about.

“Brat Summer” Salad is inspired by the ‘summer garden tower’ Vice President Kamala Harris served at her first official dinner at the Naval Observatory.
