A summer picnic with Swig - picnic essentials

Summer means its picnic season! 

I was kindly contacted by Swig flasks to see if I would like to review one of their hip flasks so 

I have put together this post to share my picnic essentials and my thoughts on the flask.

1- A pretty picnic basket - I choose this Mini cool bag from Cath Kidston which was the perfect size for keeping the food fresh and came with two lunch boxes in the matching cloud print!

2- Food - I prepared a little paella to take in the lunch boxes filled with chicken, chorizo, prawns and vegetables. No picnic would be complete without strawberry's and cupcakes and for me my new favourite snack sweet and salty popcorn.

3- Drinks - Still lemonade is my favourite summer time drink along with a cheeky drop of gin! This is where the flask came in perfectly. I packed a bottle of the still lemonade and a flask of gin and it made for a refreshing and summery drink.

The flask 

I choose the SWIG magnetic Executive Flask which came with the Naked swig flask and a blue leather sleeve which features a card slot and limited addition elephant print lining which is such a lovely detail, I also love that the flask came with its own number which is engraved onto the flask which invites you to join the swig society which makes it a little extra special. I think the flask would be a perfect gift! It came in a simple but sleek black box with turquoise ribbon and fabric lining there was also an option to add an engraved message which is a lovely touch to personalise your flask. 

Thanks again to the team at swig,

 I am sure my flask will enjoy may picnics and nights out with me!
