The sun is out and our social calendar is packed full of trips to our local parks and gardens. Enjoying the sun with a refreshing alcoholic drink is a must. But many of us don’t have the time to mix up a fresh cocktail to pack in our picnic baskets. It’s far easier to pick up an alcoholic drink in a can. From canned wine to mimosas there isn’t much they don’t put in a tinny nowadays. DOSE writer Demi has everything you need to know about choosing the best alcoholic drinks in a can for your summer picnic.
