If you’re planning to enjoy a day in the great outdoors with a cocktail in hand, you better come prepared. Here are 8 tips to pack for the perfect cocktail picnic.
Begin with a sturdy hamper to ensure the contents stay secure during transport.
Select a variety of cheeses, crackers, and cured meats for a well-rounded selection that air well with drinks and isn’t too messy to transport.
Opt for alcohols that can be served at room temperature like whisky, rum, or vodka.
Include a large insulated thermos to store mixers or ice just in case you do need to cool off.
Premix as much as possible at home. Create a selection of bright, refreshing cocktails like gin and tonics with Tanqueray No. Ten for an easy to pour solution.
Bring along a set of stylish plastic or melamine glasses, as well as napkins and utensils for convenience.
Instead of ice cubes, freeze whole grapes for non-melting drink chillers that also double up as tasty snacks.
