Celebrating Summer and National Picnic Week! - June Highlights

Summer has well and truly arrived with Summer Solstice bringing with it long evenings, drinks in the sunshine and of course plenty of picnics!
 
This year National Picnic Week falls on one of the sunniest weeks of the year, the 16th to the 25th of June. To make the most of this glorious week here are some foodie must-haves for your picnic basket!

Poetic License Strawberries and Cream Picnic Gin

Poetic License Strawberries and Cream Picnic Gin has been both distilled and infused with strawberries to give it a creamy texture with red-fruit notes. The essence of English summer in a bottle, this drink is perfect to enjoy whilst sat on a checkered blanket in the park with friends while the sun is shining!

Order online from 31 Dover and add some Summer charm to your picnic baskets.

Williams GB gin

Junes welcomes not only National Picnic Week but also World Gin Day set up to to celebrate England’s national drink. There’s no better way to celebrate than with one of Britain’s best, Williams GB gin. 
 
This gin is made using potatoes from the family farm in Herefordshire, and unlike most other gins where a neutral grain spirit is simply redistilled, this distilled spirit is grown, fermented and distilled on the farm deep in middle England. In fact, serve it in a martini with a slice of apple this would be a fine drink to enjoy Wimbledon with!

Order online from 31 Dover and cheer on Murray at Wimbledon.
