Game, Set and Match for Summer Food
With Wimbledon just around the corner, sports fans will be looking forward to a fortnight of action on Centre Court from the likes of Tim Henman and Andy Murray, and traditionally some rain and a song from Sir Cliff. If tennis isn’t for you, there’s no reason why you can’t enjoy the other Wimbledon traditions with a posh picnic, some strawberries and cream, ice cold lemonade, or even a drop of Pimm’s while the players compete in the championship.
With this in mind Lakeland has this stylish Willow Chiller Basket to add a little luxury to your picnicking. With a divided section for carrying bottles and an insulated 10 litre compartment to keep food fresh, you’ll be the envy of everyone else in the park.
Strawberries and cream are synonymous with Wimbledon, and the Strawberry
Prep Set makes preparation so simple, whether you pick your own or buy a
punnet from the supermarket. A strawberry-shaped huller ensures you save
your fingertips, by removing stalks quickly and cleanly so all you have
to do is sit back and enjoy the tournament.
You’ll want a long cold drink to wash them down with too, and the creative kitchen specialist has come up with this Iced Without Ice Jug, which holds ice cubes in a central chamber to chill your drink without diluting it, making it perfect for a refreshing glass of home-made lemonade, or any other summer drink you fancy.
Finally, summer wouldn’t be summer without a jug of Pimm’s served with chopped fruit and mint, and the elegantly designed Strahl Pitcher and Wine Goblet are perfect for the purpose. Genuinely unbreakable and finished by hand to give a glass-like radiance and crystal-clear clarity – you’ll have to tap it with your fingertip to see that it is, in fact, made from polycarbonate.
