As the sun sets later and the days grow warmer, it's time to indulge in the quintessential flavors of summer. Whether you're firing up the grill for a BBQ bash or spreading out a picnic blanket in the park, we've got your drink menu covered. From smoky whiskey concoctions to breezy elderflower delights, there's something for every palate to enjoy.
BBQ Cocktails
There's nothing better than firing up the BBQ when the sun comes out. We've got all the tips and tricks for an amazing BBQ drink selection.
Think of Pairings
You know what they say - the right drink can make or break a great meal. So when you're whipping up those flame-kissed meats, fish, veggies and sides, take a second to consider what cocktail will complement those smoky, savoury flavours best. For rich, hearty dishes like burgers or steak, you'll want drinks that can stand up to the bold tastes. Cue the whisky cocktails! But if you're going lighter with grilled veggies, chicken or fish, a refreshing cocktail is going to be your new best friend.
Whisky Cocktails
These cocktails are made for meaty BBQ flavours. A classic Old Fashioned with its caramel-y whisky notes would be divine with smoked pork. Or try getting fancy with a whisky sour - the sweet-and-sour thing plays so well with smokiness.

Picnic Cocktails
Transportation
When it comes to picnics, you want cocktails that are easy to transport and just as delicious. Mason jars or cold flasks are perfect for this—they're sturdy, seal tightly, and look charming on a picnic blanket. Just don't forget to pack a cool box with plenty of ice to keep your drinks chilled. Remember garnishes too! Fresh mint sprigs, red berries, lime wedges, and a little salt for the rim can take your picnic cocktails to the next level. And for a touch of whimsy, pack some colourful straws. Cheers to Summer sipping!
