1. Get Prepping

Keep food fresh during a fun day in the baking sun. Your Aloha Bowls offer the perfect solution to outdoor feasting with leakproof lids, and a round, easy-to-carry shape that also stacks so it doesn’t take up too much space in your picnic bag. 

  • Aloha 450 ml Bowl for small produce like cherry tomatoes and strawberries. You can also use it for salad toppings like croutons and pumpkin seeds.
  • Aloha 1.0 l Bowl for side dishes or compact salads.
  • Aloha 2.0 l Bowl for small desserts and small or chopped fruits.
  • Aloha 4.0 l Bowl for large salads, or a picnic punch. 
  • Aloha 7.5 l Bowl bread, rolls, and pastries. You can also fill it with ice and keep your drinks cool.

Pro Tip: Plan ahead! Write down or print out your recipes, as well as how many people you’ll be serving – this is an easy way to determine food quantities and avoid food waste.

2. Say ‘Yes’ to sustainable straws

There’s something fun about having your own Eco+ Straw. Plus, there’s the added benefit of knowing every time you use it, you prevent another single-use plastic straw from going into the ocean. When traveling with reusable straws, hygiene is a priority – the Eco+ Straw comes with a handy little straw cleaner so that you can enjoy each sip like it’s your first.

3. Choose sustainable plates and cutlery

Plates and cutlery are among the heaviest items in your picnic bag, especially when you have to carry the load to your picnic spot. Solution: Allegra Plates and Outdoor Dining Cutlery – a sustainable, lightweight, and colorful solution to lighten the load while avoiding single-use plastic and paper plates & cutlery altogether.

4. Batch-make the refreshments

It’s easy to make your own punch or seasonal fruit juice inside your Aloha 4.0 l Bowl. Remember to bring along your Ladle so that the picnic crew can simply refill their  Expression Tumblers and Eco Bottles throughout the day to keep hydrated and refreshed.

 

Pro Tip: When making a homemade refreshment with fruit in it, opt for locally grown and seasonal ingredients to make it as sustainable as possible. #NoTimeToWaste

5. Leave it better than you found it

Before leaving, rally the crew and do a thorough clean-up of your picnic space. Use your empty Aloha Bowls to store any leftovers or recyclable waste to take home if the picnic spot doesn’t have a recycling bin.
