Secrets of the perfect picnic

Summer flies quickly – have time to organize a real holiday in nature for yourself and your loved ones.

Since the time of the ancient Greeks, eating together in the open air has been and remains one of the favorite forms of entertainment, especially in warm weather. And in the 17th century, the French had a name for this pastime – a picnic, or pique-nique. It is meant to come together and “stamp something”. Usually, everyone brings their own food and drinks to such events. We offer some ideas to make your picnic unforgettable for a long time and give real pleasure to all participants.

The classic of the “picnic genre” is, of course, shish kebab or other grilled meat. But you should not make a fire in the city park, and also in the forest. It is better to take a small barbecue with you – it is very convenient and safe to fry both meat and ordinary sausage, sausage or sausage on skewers or a grill. Do not forget to add a lot of greens and vegetables to the plate – it is better to wash them at home in advance, but cut them on the spot, so that they retain their juiciness.

Since picnics are usually held in the afternoon, on a hot summer weekend, the best addition to an impromptu table is a cold drink with low alcohol – for example, cider from one of the most famous producers of Ukrainian ABK Dnepr. Cool it at home, and carry it in a cooler bag or in an airtight bag, which is usually sold at checkouts in supermarkets. The optimal temperature will reveal the wonderful taste and aroma of the drink as much as possible.

The Bravo brand offers nine types of cider: orange, lime, honey, apple, mojito, negroni, peach, blueberry and Sicilian orange. The drink is poured into convenient and light bottles, so you don’t have to worry about something breaking on the way.

Another great option for having a fun summer weekend in nature is an energy drink from TM Power Bank. Classic or coconut flavored, this energy drink is available in two versions – alcoholic (8.4%, like cider) and non-alcoholic. It will not only cheer up, but also give a charge of vitality for the whole day.

While the meat is cooking, take care of the snacks. For a picnic, you don’t need to invent recipes for gourmet salads with many ingredients and complex sauces – just make slices of cheese and meat, put vegetables and fruits on plates, cut a fresh baguette with a crispy crust or spread cereal crackers. You can also make sandwiches. By the way, on fire you can fry not only meat, but also, for example, cheese in pita bread, potatoes with mushrooms in foil or fish. This is the unforgettable taste that is almost impossible to reproduce at home, so take advantage of the opportunity!

For lovers of timeless classics, we offer to complement the table with white or red, dry or semi-sweet wine TM La Cantina. It is also desirable to pre-cool it, and the wine can also be mixed with cold lemonade – it is also a good choice for a light drink for a picnic.

There are many other drinks in the portfolio of Dnipro Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic Plant – in case you still prefer something stronger even on a summer day. These are TM Kolos or Petrikovskaya vodka, and TM Cardinal grape brandy, and Napoleon Charles Louis cognac, and sweet Petrikovskaya liqueur – plum, cherry, strawberry or apricot. Whichever drink you choose, you can be sure of its quality. After all, they are all made in the purest artesian water using classic technologies that have been proven over the years.

Don’t forget to take clean drinking water, your favorite sauces and spices, trash bags, mosquito spray, and take care of the aesthetic component for a picnic. Do not be too lazy to bring cozy blankets, festive napkins and beautiful tableware – even disposable, with them you will get more pleasure from delicious food and your favorite drinks from ABK Dnepr.
