Picnic Drinks
A picnic wouldn't be complete without some fancy drinks - whether they're alcoholic or not! So, take a look at some of our top beverage boxes to take your picnic to the next level. From summery wines to refreshing juices, we've got something for everyone.
Astrum Wines
A specialist in importing the best Italian wines, you know that you and your colleagues will be in good hands with a bottle (or two!) from Astrum Wines at your next picnic. Choose between summer whites, rosés, and reds - or a mix of all three!
Enjoy the fresh and bright fruit characters of the white wines, the strawberry and citrus notes of Astrum Wines' best-selling Italian rosé, and the light bodied reds that are appropriate for even the warmest of days.
Liberation Cocktails
Cocktails are a great addition to your National Picnic Month celebrations, but they're often not very easily transportable and can take a lot of time to prepare. Enter Liberation Cocktails. Convinently canned or bottled so that you and your teams can skip the hard bit and go straight to sipping!
The two-can gift box is perfect for a chilled picnic, while the six-can bundle may be best for more lively occasions! Each mixologist-grade cocktail is made with natural ingredients and overproof craft distillery spirits. Here are just some of the cocktails you can enjoy:
- Espresso Martini
- Pisco Sour
- Gin Garden
- Strawberry Daiquiri
- And more!
Lucky Saint
Lucky Saint's founder Luke Boase wanted to change how the world thought about alcohol-free beer, so after finding a brewer who shared his values and then a year of development, Lucky Saint was born: a 0.5% ABV pilsner-style lager that's unfiltered for maximum flavour.
With a citrus hop finish, Lucky Saint is the perfect beverage for a relaxed afternoon picnic - without the hangover the next day! It's also completely vegan. Choose between a four-pack or a 12-pack.
Sejuiced
For a nutritious picnic pick-me-up, Sejuiced's hand-made juices are perfect. They're bottled in glass for easy carrying to and from the park, and you can recycle them afterwards! In each box, your colleagues will receive five juices, including:
- The Fatigue Fighter (strawberry, apple, and banana)
- Cleanser Blend (kiwi, green tea, spinach, and apple)
- Radiant Roots (beetroot, apple, lemon, and ginger)
- Pineapple Zing (pineapple, lime, and ginger)
- Caffeine Kick (espresso, oak milk, and agave)
Sejuiced also has a craft cocktail and a mocktail box for those who want something a little different!

Always leave room for dessert and be sure to top off your picnic with something sweet from our treat box selection! Brownies, cookies, and macarons galore. And if you're after snacks for a pre or post-picnic nibble, we've got plenty of those too.
EK Bakery
After plenty of dainty sandwiches, you'll want to satsify your sweet tooth with these decadent brownies from EK Bakery.
