It’s the height of summer, it’s National Picnic Month and with the sun out in full force, picnics are extremely popular.
Having a picnic gathering is fun and exciting – but have you ever wondered, what to bring to a picnic? If so, don’t fret, here’s what you should be packing for your summer day out.
Sandwiches – Sandwiches never go amiss. Whether it’s coronation chicken or prawn cocktail, brown or white bread, sandwiches are a staple for your picnic basket.
Cheese – Cheese is a great addition to your picnic, with choices including red Leicester, cheddar and blue cheese, best kept fresh in a cool bag. Adding some crackers for everyone to enjoy will make you a picnic superstar.
Pork Pies – A British classic, pork pie. With a meaty interior and a perfect crumbly pastry on the exterior, pork pies are the ideal portable savoury treat for the summer season.
Nibbles – Nibbles can be forgotten about, but they are the very essence of a picnic. We recommend snacks which are easy to transport such as crisps, salamis, olives and pâté.
Cold Drinks – There’s nothing better than a cold beverage to wash down your tasty treats with, so make sure you bring some orange juice, lemonade or a couple of refreshing lagers, perfect for the summer.
Don’t forget glasses, cutlery and a cool bag, unless you want your deli treats to be melted.
