Can do: the best picnic drinks in tins
Today’s range of seltzers, cocktails and mixers are often more more suited to cans than bottles, and easier to carry. Here’s our drinks writer’s pick of picnic tipples
When I started writing pieces about picnic wines at the beginning of my drink writing career, it was all about how to keep your bottle cool and not forgetting to pack the corkscrew. How times have changed. Now, you’re as likely to take a cocktail as a wine, and it’s more likely than not to be in a can. Which is perfect for the socially distanced picnic to which everyone presumably has to bring their own food and drink, though I would be more than a little miffed if anyone had made one of my colleagues’ recipes on these pages and wasn’t prepared to share it.
I have a problem with cans, though. Not the container as such, which is at least recyclable, nor the temperature – it must be the best way of keeping a drink cold, after all. And they’re obviously safer than glass in transit. It’s the contents.
