A Laid-Back Picnic with a Touch of Elegance

There’s something special about a picnic with friends or loved ones. While fine dining and exclusive spots are all the rage, when was the last time you caught up with people in nature? Here’s your sign to slow down and rediscover how effortless and unforgettable a picnic can be. Whether it’s in your backyard garden or a breezy rooftop under the stars, the right setting makes all the difference. And of course, what truly brings it all together are the food and drinks.

Setting the Scene

A picnic doesn’t need much - just a cosy mat, a few cushions, and a little bit of decor like fresh flowers or a woven basket to hold your spread. The key is to keep it relaxed and inviting, somewhere you can lounge for hours without a second thought.

Drinks That Travel the World

Just like a picnic brings together nature’s best, Six Brothers Mahura is rooted in something just as special, made entirely from the mahua/mahuva flower, a spirit with deep Indian heritage and effortless versatility. Six Brothers pairs beautifully with flavours from around the world. Whether you like your drinks light and refreshing or bold and complex, Six Brothers Mahura is the perfect canvas. Here are a few global drinks that work exceptionally well with it:

• Six Brothers Mahura Nimbu Pani (India) – Fresh lime juice with a pinch of black salt and honey, both hydrating and full of bright, citrusy zing.
• Six Brothers Mahura Spritz (Italy) – A crisp take on a spritz with Mahua spirit, elderflower tonic, and a dash of citrus, best served over ice.
• Six Brothers Mahura Hwachae (Korea) – A traditional fruit punch made with fresh fruits such as watermelon and berries, and honey for natural sweetness.
• Six Brothers Mahura Switchel (Caribbean & North America) – A bold, ginger-infused cooler with a hint of vinegar and spice.

The Perfect Picnic Spread

Good food makes everything better. Keep it simple yet indulgent with a mix of textures and flavours—a cheese board with honey-drizzled figs, spiced nuts, fresh fruit, and dark chocolate. Some fresh sourdough bread, creamy cheeses, and a little homemade dip can go a long way.

The Little Things That Make It Special

Details matter. The right glassware can make all the difference—ditch the plastic cups for elegant tumblers or stemmed glasses. A linen napkin instead of paper adds a touch of charm. A playlist that fits the moment, whether it’s jazz in the background or a soft acoustic mix, ties everything together.
