Five Perfect Worldwide Picnics

by Northern Life

With the weather changing, the flowers blooming and the rules allowing us to meet 6 of our friends outside, this summer is going to be all about the picnic!

Google searches for “picnic” have risen 550% year-on-year, and searches for “picnic snacks” has seen a 500% increase. “Cute picnic ideas” has seen a huge 5,000% increase – it’s obvious the UK is raring to go!

With this in mind, it’s time to give our picnics a makeover and maybe try something a little bit different. Wren Kitchens has conducted research into popular foods around the world and have compiled a list of 5 delectable global picnics.

Designed to inspire your at-home alfresco dining and transport you to holiday hotspots, it’s time to revitalise your picnic basket with these picnic treats.

Picnic

British Inspired Picnic

The good-old fashioned Great British picnic is a feast of treats that we all know and love. In order to make your picnic a quintessentially British affair, you’ll need an array of sandwiches, scones (with jam and cream of course), and Pimm’s at a bare minimum!

Picnic

Mediterranean Inspired Picnic

Although we might not be able to bask in the Mediterranean sun this year, we can still create a smorgasbord of delights from Greece, Spain, and Italy in our picnics. Think fresh fruit and vegetables, cheese, olives, cured meat, and fish, all washed down with red wine – delicious.
